The new Happy Meal commemorates Disneyland's 70th anniversary with a special surprise.
There always seems to be a lot going on in December. And while the month can feel a little stressful at times, it’s still one filled with a lot of joy, good food and fun traditions. And McDonald’s is partnering with Disney to add another layer of fun to the end of the year.
Disneyland is officially commemorating its 70th anniversary with a fun new Disney Happy Meal. If Disneyland is the happiest place on Earth, then it makes sense to celebrate it during the most wonderful time of the year.
What is the McDonald’s Disney Happy Meal?
The McDonald’s Disney Happy Meal is very special indeed. While the food and drink options are consistent with a regular Happy Meal, the toys got an upgrade. That’s because inside are two toys! That’s right, it’s almost too good to be true. It’s also almost too cute to be true—these special 70th anniversary toys are tiny versions of the Disney characters you know and love.
When I visited my local McDonald’s, there was a large display box by the beverage area that showed photos of all the toys. I was impressed with the breadth of Disney IP that was covered—there were classic Disney characters, plus Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars characters.
I ordered a Disney Happy Meal to see what it would look like. The commemorative box is fun, as is the small box the toys come inside. The outside of the small box shows all 70—that’s right, 70!—of the characters that are available. In my Happy Meal, I received Tiana from The Princess and the Frog and Crush from Finding Nemo. Tiana is wearing a special outfit that correlates to the new theme park ride, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, that opened in Disneyland last fall.
How long will the McDonald’s Disney Happy Meal be available?
The Disney Happy Meal is available now at McDonald’s locations nationwide while supplies last. If you are a Disney fan, I suggest that you head to your nearest McDonald’s as soon as possible. According to McDonald’s, there are 35 toy combos to collect. Now that I have one of them, I am feeling very competitive. I want to start collecting every toy available—or at least until I get my favorite Disney character: Ariel.
