McDonald's Happy Meal Toys CARS Promotion

I found some great images of the CARS Toys that were part of the McDonald's Happy Meal promotion from this summer. They were available at McDonald's Happy Meal or Mighty Kids Meal from Jun9 until July 6, 2006. There were 8 toys with action features and there were two versions of Lightning McQueen - a clean and a muddy verion. There were also slight variations in the eye position of the model cars. Worth noting is that the McDonald's Mater fetches the highest prices on ebay - suggesting that it is harder to find and in greater demand.


1. LIGHTNING McQUEEN - (2 versions, clean and muddy - action feature is a pull back, it races forward and does wheelies).

2. MATER - has working tow truck features such as a moveable towing hitch and tires that actually turn. You can really use it to tow other cars in the lineup.

3. SALLY - she also has the pull back action feature like Lightning McQueen, as she races forward so goes off into different directions - steering off to the right or the left.

4. DOC HUDSON - doc has a wind up action feature, you wind it up and let it zoom away.

5. RAMONE - comes in several different body color versions: purple, yellow, and green - Ramone does some hydraulic tricks, bouncing around.

6. FLO - owner of Flo's V-8 Café - is a classic pull back car.

7.LUIGI - one of the funniest McDonald's toy, the personality of this little Italian car number is matched by the fact that it gets moving only after you shoot if off from crank on the tire wrench.

8. FILLMORE - this classic hippy van is like Flo, another pull back that will race forward after being pulled back and released.



I have seen some of the complete sets available on ebay - so if you missed out on these collectibles - then my suggestion is visit ebay and do a search - check out http://www.hotdealspotter - as it is set up on default to locate the DIsney Pixar CARS items up for auction.
