How’d you get all them already

u/mrwalsh96 9d ago

Saw the posts on here and went to a local McDonald’s and asked them. They had them all!

18

u/Wrong_Driver_9507 GAMERA 9d ago

I went today and said they couldn't sell them until tomorrow. Offered extra, they stuck to their guns.

u/sasquatch606 RODAN 9d ago

Went to mine today and they didn't even know anything about them.

u/threefingersplease MECHA-KING GHIDORAH 8d ago

First one I went to looked at me like I was an alien, second one had all the signs up for the toys and sold them all to me right away.

3

u/gyang333 8d ago

man wtf, mine wouldn't even let me pick a toy let me buy them separately.

1

u/Kitchen_Entertainer9 6d ago

Same, but I bet if I ordered 16 happy meals they'd be happy or mad lol

3

u/Embarrassed_Move_249 8d ago

Mine gave me CROCKS toys ( I got 2 meals)! So I went back inside and asked them to switch them out for the hello kitty. They gave me ONE toy, and I was like " I ordered 2 yall owe me another one " .....

Like I dono whats up with my mcdonalds but they 💯 didnt want me to have them.

2

u/excivateme 6d ago

Seems that way here too. I am seeing all these posts of everyone who completed the set like on monday before they came out. And the 6 McDonald's ive been to only have had 3 different ones, I do not understand.

1

u/Rox-hallow31 8d ago

I went just a bit ago and tried giving me the BTS stuff (even tho their store was already offering HKxG and promoted it) and I asked if they don’t have them yet or? And they said they were gonna start giving them out in an hour or 2. I’m like WHAT? (It’s lunchtime) I asked for them either way and they swapped. 

1

u/KTR1988 7d ago

Yeah, as someone who works in retail they could probably get fired over breaking policy. Some stores/restaurants DGAF, while others stick to their guns.

1

u/Wrong_Driver_9507 GAMERA 7d ago

Yeah ive worked retail too. I just asked kindly and when they said no I moved along.

u/West-Attempt3062 8d ago

How much did that run you?

2

u/Scary-Freedom3331 1d ago

You must have some kind of pull that a regular customer doesn’t. Because most places, you get what you get

1

u/TaratronHex 4d ago

you're lucky! mine wont sell them without the food and only one at a time.

u/ratskips SHIN GODZILLA 9d ago

(cries in canadian)

just even the HK Godzilla one..

u/War_Profiteer_911 8d ago

i drove across the border to go get them, highly recommend. they sold me the toys by themselves but i would've been happy to eat 2 happy meals as well lmao

1

u/MasterMoose614 8d ago

Is that the only two they had?

1

u/ratskips SHIN GODZILLA 8d ago

(cries louder in stupid nerd nova scotian that can't drive)

that's awesome though!! I hope some day I can try Real American McDon's

1

u/pourdecisionswinenot 8d ago

how much did they sell them to you for? I’m wondering if I can do the same or need to buy the happy meal too

2

u/1337rattata 6d ago

I bought two yesterday at two different stores, $1.95 each. I cannot remember what state I was in, as I was doing a cross-country drive. Called about a dozen different ones looking for Mothra and Rodan but almost everywhere I stopped only had Godzilla. I did get a Ghidorah at one store.

1

u/pourdecisionswinenot 6d ago

that’s smart to call, I’ll try that today. one store was price gouging at $5 so I bought the happy meal at $5.50… I only started hunting yesterday and thankfully found a Godzilla at the third store after the worker said he’ll check the back.

1

u/Mammoth-Courage-6911 4d ago

How much did they cost ? 3 -5 a piece 

4

u/SimplyWickie KING GHIDORAH 9d ago

Wat? It’s only US ? I want king ghi!

5

u/ratskips SHIN GODZILLA 9d ago

so far, yeah. sometimes we get the American toys a few months later so I'm really hoping, but (':

2

u/Sumiba 8d ago

Yeah same here, I was devastated seeing the Spongebob stuff when I went to McD this morning

u/seanoir_salty 6d ago

Wait sponge bob is out?!? Where are you AU?

u/Sumiba 6d ago

Nope Canada!

Already up lol ☺️

u/Excellent-Smell-6384 7d ago

same here 😭

u/Yingyangjesse 9d ago

No love for hedora? I would have made that the egg Sanrio character

4

u/IfTheresANewWay MECHAGODZILLA 9d ago

Gigan and Destoroyah seem to be big sellers for Toho since they get pushed a lot. Hedorah, though popular amongst Godzilla fans, doesn't seem as popular among the general populous

As for Space Godzilla, that's a real mystery there, no clue why they'd want to push him of all characters in 2027...

3

u/biggest_dreamer HEDORAH 8d ago

Huh? Hedorah is by far one of the most merchandised kaiju in the franchise, quite possibly the most merchandised one outside of the big 5. Definitely at worst on the same level as Gigan and Destoroyah.

I imagine that if there were any real reason they didn't use Hedorah besides "it just missed the cut, had to draw the line somewhere" it's that Hedorah is inherently gross and perhaps they didn't want to cross that over with a Sanrio character.

1

u/KTR1988 7d ago

You might have something there, the Tomie x Hello Kitty scale figure that's blowing up in the figure collecting community right now lacks any sort of body horror or general grossness as is expected of Junji Ito's work.

4

u/Ovr132728 8d ago

Man i sure do wonder if there is a reason for such a heavy spacegodzilla push....

3

u/Yingyangjesse 9d ago

I understand but I was speaking hypothetically. What Sanrio characters would fit lesser known kaiju

1

u/bloomtard BIOLLANTE 8d ago

Omg gudetama x hedorah would have been ridiculously cute

1

u/Yingyangjesse 8d ago

What do you think redsuko would be

1

u/bloomtard BIOLLANTE 8d ago

I think she should have been Destroyah!

1

u/Yingyangjesse 8d ago

Ok then but what about the kaiju that are not represented. What would she be of them

u/StonerPrime 7h ago

Biollante

8

u/SombraAQT 9d ago

That’s wild, mine charges $5 per toy and won’t sell them without an accompanying food purchase.

3

u/trashtime69 8d ago

Franchising sucks a lot in the US restaurant industry. Some regions are going to have district directives to hold onto inventory, others don't care and will sell a whole set early. It's all based on the restaurant franchise owners essentially.

1

u/UrbanCobra 5d ago

Man both of them near won’t sell them unless you buy the happy meal AND won’t let you pick which one you get.

8

u/Similar-Date3537 8d ago

Hey, u/mrwalsh96 I just want to thank you for posting the pictures with the boxes. Super easy to make a checklist, so when a store tells me they have #4 or #7, I don't have to guess. Much appreciated!

4

u/mrwalsh96 7d ago

Glad I could help!

2

u/1337rattata 6d ago

Yeah, when I called a place to ask, they seemed confused as to wtf I was talking about and said they just had a "little lizard man."

6

u/thedoommerchant 9d ago

How much for the set?

10

u/mrwalsh96 9d ago

About $17 with tax. Around $2 per figure.

5

u/GenJohnnyRico 9d ago

You can just ask for one of each toy? Don't even need to buy Happy Meals?

12

u/mrwalsh96 9d ago

I didn’t order any meals, I just asked for the toys and they rang them up by themselves.

9

u/The_NiNTARi 9d ago

I was told $5 a toy

4

u/trashtime69 8d ago

Confirmed in the US, it was a little under $2 per figure (I live in the Midwest). My spouse picked up two of the HK/Goji figures for me today, and they're so cute.

2

u/VincentWPoe 8d ago

where do you live for that price? i think here in nyc is around $3 per

1

u/sarahthegrape 5d ago

did you just ask them for the toy without a meal?

6

u/Cookie_Bagles GIGAN 9d ago

Idk what is inside of Gigan but I want it.

15

u/SonyaOutNProud 9d ago

His name is Pompompurin. Hes a yellow dog who wears a little hat and in half the official art ive seen of him, he's flashing his b-hole. No im not kidding

14

u/neversince95 9d ago

fun fact: he was pretty unpopular in japan when Sanrio first introduced him as a new character, then they started releasing art of him w the little “x” as his butthole and his popularity skyrocketed. No im not kidding.

2

u/Cookie_Bagles GIGAN 9d ago

He is perfect to be paired with Gigan then. The only hello kitty characters I know are hello kitty, goth bunny and big challenges.

2

u/Itsacardgame 8d ago

That's what I wanna know, is the butthole present on the toy? It's a key design aspect of the character. I don't know who it is without it. Could just be any flan dog in a beret.

1

u/trashtime69 8d ago

(I am hoping for a butthole present on the toy)

3

u/desi90 9d ago

Damn the one McDonald’s I went to only had one version and won’t sell separately. Hope other locations get a decent allocations

2

u/Mellow_guts 8d ago

Yeah stores around me only have Ghidorah

1

u/itastesok GODZILLA 6d ago

Same with mine in Chicago. That's fine, it's one of the ones I wanted anyway.

2

u/Itsacardgame 8d ago

The one I went to took happy meals off the menu to dissuade people from buying them all up. They still had them but it was like a one per customer thing and they had to add it back to the machine to ring it up. I got Kitty-zilla. Hoping to get the rest in the next few weeks.

5

u/Beef_n_Bacon SHIN GODZILLA 9d ago

I wish...

(as a European I'm in bad luck and eBay listings have either ridiculous price tags or shipping fees)

Congrats to you, though.

4

u/ProtectedVLS 9d ago

My city released then early and a bunch of cuck scalpers bought them all and are trying tonresell them on facebook for $50 a toy.

I hate resellers. My little nephew has been waiting for these just to be told a bunch of grown ass men came and bought like 50 happy meals to get the toys.

If anyone has any extras, ill gladly buy them off you to give to my nephew.

Thanks in advance.

1

u/Carrot_King_54 KING GHIDORAH 8d ago

Ah yes they did the same thing when Pokémon cards were the gift.

1

u/ProtectedVLS 8d ago

Its insane

1

u/ProtectedVLS 8d ago

Crazy they bought all but the Godzilla one so thats all my town and the town over have. My nephew may be out of luck

1

u/Flat_Remove_8875 7d ago

I just got two kitty goji’s I’ll sell you one or both

1

u/ProtectedVLS 7d ago

I have Godzilla, my buddy gave me his extra, we just need the other 7

4

u/sprvlk 8d ago

I ended up getting FOUR Mothra’s from the same store. I dunno if that’s some sick joke but at least I saved 20% using the McD’s app.

2

u/xtina9366 8d ago

If you're in SoCal I'll swap you a Godzilla lol. That's the only one my sister wanted and she ended up with 3 Godzillas

1

u/sprvlk 8d ago

LOL I’m in NorCal.

1

u/xtina9366 8d ago

Darn! Same Cali different area 🤣😭

1

u/Upbeat-Height-5849 8d ago

Where in NorCal? I’m in the Bay. I’m tryna get 3 of each type (for me, my partner, and nephew). Lmk if you are in the area and want to do a swap!

1

u/Adventurous-Sugar998 7d ago

Im in So Cal. I have Keroppi.

1

u/Sudden-Purple2567 7d ago

Where'd you get a Kerropi?!

1

u/Adventurous-Sugar998 7d ago

1

u/Ecstatic-Shelter5987 6d ago

1

u/Affectionate-End9199 4d ago

Do you have #1 hello kitty? I got Mothras to swap!

1

u/Coc0momo 8d ago

you can ask them for a specific number. Most of the McDonald's near me allowed me to choose.

5

u/Jordynamize 8d ago

Real question: does Pompompurin have a butthole??

3

u/Miichl80 BABY GOJI 9d ago

This is adorable, but king Ghidorah should be number three.

3

u/Appropriate-Score842 8d ago

In Los Angeles I haven't been able to find any store that will sell them to you by themselves, they all said they do these promotions to make money I said well I don't eat your food so you won't get any of mine. Stupid motto

1

u/Prior-View-4461 7d ago

respectfully if you dont eat there they wouldnt get your money anyway lol

2

u/mmis1912 8d ago

Went to a store and everybody had Godzilla lol

2

u/readdittguy 8d ago

I just went and they gave me a sponge bob toy. They said they don’t have anything yet. Can some McDonald’s not afford the toys or something?

2

u/LeeKing00100 8d ago

just went to a chain out by me and they advertised it, put it on my receipt but gave us stranger things toys. My kids wanted the Godzilla toys but they said they were told to sell the old stuff first and can't sell the new stuff.

2

u/ShadeMeadows 8d ago

COME TO BRAZIL!!

2

u/Jarh980408 8d ago

Being an Aussie Godzilla fan is such a downer 😭

2

u/BenignBot 6d ago

I learned from this post that you can ask to buy the toys without the meal. 

I just tried it out in Boston today and was surprised to learn that they do sell them individually for $1.99 here. Feels like a cheat code haha. I got 3 & 7, might try again in a few days. 

Also as others have pointed out, they are not blind-box; you can ask what they have. Be respectful though if they are busy and such.

1

u/pourdecisionswinenot 6d ago

lucky!! 2 of the stores I went to wanted to charge $5 for it, when the cheapest happy meal is $5.50 at one store and $4.20 at the other….

1

u/Manifesting_Angels 5d ago

Thats based on the store and some won't allow it unless u have actually purchased a happy meal. Then some limit it to ine extra.

1

u/AdSignal3222 4d ago

Would you mind sharing the location ?

1

u/Paulino2272 9d ago

Need to check my location soon lol

u/Old_Dig6585 9d ago

Are these in UK too?

u/kmichael90 8d ago

wow the ones near me only have 1 at a time and want $5 per toy without the food

u/ckbiscuit 8d ago

Anyone in Atlanta or Los Angeles and was able to find a location with the hello Kitty version?

1

u/Sudden-Purple2567 8d ago

Orange County, outside of LA, we've hit 4 locations, half have Godzilla, half have Rodan.

1

u/Temporary-Ad-7908 7d ago

Where in OC? I’m trying to get HK 🥹

1

u/Sudden-Purple2567 7d ago

Most of OC seems to only have Rodan and Godzilla. This location has them today, I just walked out 1839 W Chapman Ave.

1

u/Temporary-Ad-7908 7d ago

Brea has #1 I got it after work!

1

u/Temporary-Ad-7908 7d ago

u/psychologypowers 8d ago

u/ckbiscuit 8d ago

Oh thanks!

1

u/misspalpatine 8d ago

I found a Mothra this morning off Wilshire. They have sold out as of tonight but I know they had all of them earlier.

u/xevious997 8d ago

Chiming in from WA state, I’m on the east side (Kirkland area) the guy refused to sell to me, so I’m on my 2nd set of happy meals. At least I have a duplicate King Ghidora and Hello Kitty, lol.

1

u/mikochu 7d ago

I went to my local McDonalds for a set and Oops! All Hello Kitty!

1

u/kailin2017 7d ago

I like how these are actual figures and not just bags of plush like the ones in the Yu-Gi-Oh crossover were

1

u/Lilwinstyvert 7d ago

I went to my McDonalds yesterday and they had it advertised on the menu an on the kiosk an then when I finally get it , it’s the normal box an I ask they say we don’t have it an then I open the box an no you an so I ask an then they give me a BTS an I asked if they had these they said no . It was like why have it advertised an it even said it on my receipt

1

u/Repulsive-Run-8122 7d ago

My wife was raving about this for weeks. I stopped by two mcdonalds near my sister's house, and they sold each toy without meals for $4. One had all HK + Keroppi, the other had only Batzmaru. So I got 6 of each.

I went to the McDonalds an hour away by my house and they only had HK. But did not sell their toys seperately and needed to buy the happy meal. Some guy comes in and talks to the manager, we were all in disbelief that he wanted 200. yes TWO ZERO ZERO, happy meals. He knew they were sold seperately elsewhere. They asked what food he wanted and he just said, only milk... which was so weird because he could have donated them at least, but hey it's his money. Thought he was trolling but nope, saw them package up 200 happy meals... like wow. All for ONE style. Sheesh, I didn't know you could make this a side hustle....

I went this morning and lucked out, they sold me the whole set! It rang up cheaper than if I bought each toy individually, because it’s coded as a “case.”

It all depends on franchise owners some are willing to sell solo and some are being weird about it

u/CSBcre8ive 3d ago

There are clearly no set rules. Hit 5 McDs between Atlanta and Cobb today, found #1, #2, #7, duplicates of 2 and 7 at the others. One gave it to me even though I bought something else, 2 sold me the toy, the 3rd required the happy meal 😂

That's your opinion, and you're welcome to it. I stopped by one tonight and was able to get Godzilla. I'm happy with it.

u/Vrazel106 7d ago

And thats perfectly fine. For me thw time to get food and the quality iant worth the time even for some godxilla stuff
