This set from McDonalds is the "boy toy" Happy Meal. The "girl toy" is some doll with her friends that have interchangeable accessories (since girls like to play dress-up and go shopping). The target audience for these toys wouldn't want an icky girl in their set.

Well, we have seen Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl way back a few years ago and they're the most popular ones because I had a hard time trying to get both of them in my hands...I asked them and they kept saying "sold out - top seller" *groan*

call me nitpicky - I can be fuzzy...but can't help it. they misspelled Lightning Lad's name by adding an extra "i" to his name. Are there the proofreaders out available or are we too lazy? Look at the bright side, at least they got his name right on the box. that's what it is important. *whew*
Also I like the designed logos on T-Wolf, Bouncing Boy, Mano, and B-5. nice logos.

Yay! A fellow nitpicker. That's pretty egregious in my book -- almost as bad as the Toronto science museum's "Star Trek" exhibit that had a Guinan costume worn by Whoopie Goldberg.
Anyway, I admit I broke down and did one of those eBay preorders just to be safe. At the price I got it for, I'm really just paying for shipping, assuming I would have just bought the toys. I did make an inquiry with a local McDonald's, though, about getting the whole display at the end of the run. She said they usually toss them if no one on staff wants them and suggested I come back in August to see what she could do.

Not sure. They never charge the same at different franchises. At least not here. I'll probably get the food too (maybe water and the fruit cup they have) so I can have the bag as well.

I know the official release date for the promo but as a long time collector of Kids Meal premiums it's not unheard of for them for them to get them a week or so earlier (or later). I live really close by to a McD's and it's on the way to work so I can check pretty frequently.

That's about all the usable images I can get. There are still two others for each including a character bio.
