I'm Lovin' It!: 15+ of the Most Expensive Happy Meals in the History of McDonald's
We can all agree that McDonald's Happy Meal has become the comfort food of many, especially during younger years. Kids fell in love with McDonald's Happy meal because of its taste and the surprise lying inside.
McDonald's Happy meal will surely not blow your pockets, but the worth of toy collectibles inside will do - making your happy meal expensive. Toy collectibles hold a valuable amount as time passes, and you can earn lots of money.
TY’s Teenie Beanie Baby Boos
If you miss the Beanie Baby Craze, then you are $1,000 US dollars poorer. McDonald started to include Teenie Beanie Baby Boos in their happy meals and started to become popular.
The reason why the toy collection holds a valuable amount of money is due to multiple incidents and arrests that happened during the time of the Beanie Baby Craze. In addition, one of the staff of Mcdonald's was arrested after stealing $6,000 worth of Teenie Beanies.
Hot Wheels
McDonald's 1983 started to include hot wheels toys in their happy meal to join the trend of die-cast cars. As a result, hot wheels became one of the most popular toy collectibles on the McDonald's Happy meal toys list.
McDonald's hot wheels have the amount of 40 US dollars for each piece a car. However, if you luckily complete 15 of them, the value will dramatically increase to 875,00 US dollars.
Cactus Plant Flea Market
McDonald’s Cactus Plant Flea Market or also known as adult happy meal toys might be considered by many as ridiculous. However, despite the odd appearance, the four-figure toys hold an amount of 551 US dollars.
Robot
Diener Keshi is the underwater creatures' creator and made the robots for McDonald's first Happy meal toys. Therefore, robots collectibles consist of 14 unique robots that can dramatically sell for 400,00 US dollars.
Underwater Monsters
Similar to the robot's collectibles, Underwater creatures have the same creator and equal value today. Both had other uses as toys and erasers. The price of sealed sets, which are highly uncommon, is around $400.00, whereas loose sets go for over $80.00.
Power Rangers
Power ranger is one of the most iconic and loved by many, making every episode a massive hit. However, McDonald's sees this as an opportunity to boost its sales and capture the public's eyes.
McDonald's started to include power rangers toy figures in their Happy meal in 1995. In addition, the value of power ranger toy figures is consistently increasing. Now, power rangers toy figures are sold at over 350,000 US dollars.
Snoopy
In the early 2000s, McDonald's released a line of Snoopy toys to go with its Happy Meals in honor of its 50th anniversary. Due to the incredible collectibility of the toys, buyers are willing to pay up to $350,000 for a full set from collectors worldwide.
Pokemon 25th Anniversary Pikachu Holo
McDonald's started to include Pokemon cards in their happy meals to celebrate Pokemon's 25th anniversary and join the trend. However, these pokemon cards are sold in the market for over 150 US dollars, but their value can increase depending on your card's worth.
Clone Wars Happy Meal Box
To leverage the success of the Star Wars: Clone Wars television series, which ran in 2008 and 2009, McDonald's introduced a Happy Meal with a Star Wars theme in 2008.
Given that these collectibles toys are now highly sought-after collectible items, if you have one of the cardboard boxes the meal was packaged in, you could be looking at a lovely $135,000 US dollars in your back pocket.
Changeables
During 1987 and 1989, McDonald's created a line of Transforming toys for their Happy Meals known as 'Changeables.' The items on the menu would transform these toys into robots and dinosaurs. A sealed set of eight 1989 Changeables just sold for $100.00.
1993 Barbie Set
In collaboration with McDonald's and Mattel, Barbie set for both boys and girls became possible. Included in McDonald's Happy meal in the year 1993, where Hot wheel toys are still available.
Moreover, sellers from eBay advertised this collection on eBay for $105, but I wonder if the buyer got a deal since they are all in mint condition in their original boxes.
101 Dalmatians
101 Dalmatian toys are probably the most difficult collection to complete because you have to complete 101 figures of the dalmatian toy. However, a complete set of dalmatians will surely pay off the effort, as you can earn about 96 US dollars.
Star Trek Meal
Undoubtedly, this is one of the more original Happy Meal promotions. The Star Trek Communicator recently sold for $25.00 in July, while a sealed Bracelet just sold for $90.00 in June. A case of the Happy Meal boxes recently sold on eBay for $121.73.
Picnic Basket
The Yogi Bear, known as Mr. Ranger, is beloved by many worldwide. In fact, the popularity of one particular show with viewers was somewhat hit-and-miss. However, despite the program's failure, Yo Yogi's toys included in Happy Meals are now easily worth $100 online.
Inspector Gadget
In 1995, to coincide with the debut of the Inspector Gadget movie, McDonald's decided to manufacture their own Inspector Gadget Happy Meal toy because they were aware of how popular the original animated series was.
You would expect to pay roughly $70 US Dollars for one because the toys are now hard to come by.
Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Mario Bros. is the world's most well-known game of all time. McDonald's sees this as an opportunity to leverage its sales. Super Mario Bros. collectibles have a valuable price of about 70 US dollars.
Furby
These little stuffed animals attracted kids in the United States throughout the 1990s. On auction websites like eBay, a clippable Furby from the Happy Meal line might cost as much as $69.
Fraggle Rock
The Muppet Universe's Fraggle Rock was very well-liked in the late 1980s. Surprisingly, anyone can finish this set for less than $60.00 on eBay.
Despicable Me 2
Considering the popularity of the 'Despicable Me' film series, it should be no surprise that these tiny plastic figurines are now worth quite a bit.
It's possible that an unopened Jerry the Minion figure you have might be worth up to $35.
Potato Head Kids
With their Happy Meals in 1987, McDonald's introduced a series of small Mr. Potato Head dolls. And as of right now, you may anticipate getting roughly $30 for a complete set of Potato Head Kids.
Looking back on these collectible toys you get from your happy meals can make anyone feel the same feeling as when they first received their collectible toys. They held true to their original slogan and loved seeing you smile.
On the bright side, McDonald's fast food chain has continuously grown stronger to continue serving food and reach future generations. For nostalgia's sake, go ahead and grab a Happy Meal in the drive-through!
