Exciting news for Mario Kart fans! McDonald’s and Nintendo have partnered to bring Mario Kart 8 Deluxe toys to Happy Meals across the US. This collaboration celebrates the game’s enduring popularity, a decade after its original release. The promotion features ten collectable toys, each representing a different Mario Kart character with their unique kart. Characters include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Toadette, Bowser, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and special editions Gold Mario and Pink Gold Peach. These toys stand out due to their customizability. Fans can swap kart bases, mixing and matching characters with different wheels, mirroring the game’s customization options. Each toy comes in an exclusive box with McDonald’s and Nintendo branding. The McDonald’s website offers printable colouring and activity sheets for added fun. This collaboration highlights Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s lasting impact as the best-selling Nintendo Switch title. While aimed at children, adult fans are likely to be keen collectors too. Remember, each Happy Meal is a surprise, so multiple visits may be needed to complete your collection. Some locations may offer toys for separate purchase. Happy collecting, Mario Kart fans!
