    Nope. You just have three characters with toys for each mode.

    I miss the days of transforming happy meal toys...

    It's a missed opportunity to not have some kind of basic Minicon integration.

    Well the one member here told the story how he threw the box at a manager saying it scared his kid. Because of course the manager at a restaurant is responsible for creating it.

    Ah man, Taiwan just passed a law restricting [deemed unhealthy] fast food places from selling toys.

    I guess parents are worried that they can't parent well enough to feed their children the way they'd like :confused:  . You can already buy the toys individually, without buying anything else, like I've done with the previous TFPrime and RID stuff.
    The brilliant conclusion is to not let places like McDonald's market to kids. If kids were really into clowns, their mascot would likely have to go too. It is ridiculous.

    And the worst part... no more Macky D, or Burger King toys for me :cry  .

    I just don't get it. Transformers do like one thing. They TRANSFORM! It's the whole point. Why even make the toy if it's not going to do that? God, I hate this garbage...

    Well hey, ya keep one mode toy under the desk or table, the other on top and when you want to tramsform it, you spin that one around, make the transformer noise, and quickly flip their spots, it's the same right?

    I like how the toys that are in happy meals now are much more basic/lesser quality than what was in them when I was a kid. Why not just bring back the transforming food-bots?

    Same. The Animated Happy Meal Toys were pretty solid all things considered.

    Anyone else realize that Thunderhoof's robot design is a (nearly) direct rip from his warrior toy?

    +1.

    I, too, thought they transformed at first glance. But seeing as how they're static robots... I really don't care. Not to mention how the Happy Meals are generally overpriced nowadays. :banghead:  You might as well take those $4 and buy an actual TRANSFORMING minicon. :rolleyes2 

    How much longer until the foaming liberals put McD's out of business? I'm honestly surprised they're still around, considering all the bad word-of-mouth I keep hearing about them. But like porn, it must be something we all need but refuse to publicly acknowledge! ;)
