And they're huge compared to the original zoobles. Roughly 2x as big. :D SUPER cute too!

I saw these! really nice for a kids' meal toy!


ETA: I think this belongs in bargain alert, where it started.

I agree, for the price you can't go wrong. honestly I called a few McD's and went to the one that had all 8 zoobles. So cute! Thanks Mel, I tried posting on the bargains post but they moved me

They are so cute! Can I buy them without buying the Happy Meals? Can I buy them outsides of McD?

[calv]

yes you can just buy the toys alone w/out the meal, that's what I did. And ebay is pretty much the only place to buy them outside of McD's

[stefani]

How much does it cost when you just buy the toy without the Happy Meal?
TIA.

:yeahthat: i'd love to know too! for comparison's sake, does anyone know how much a hapy meals costs?

In the past, just the toy at McD is $1.50 or so, locally. No idea if it varies per area. On Tuesdays, we have $2 hamburger happy meals. Day to day, they are $3.xx.

We have cheap happy meal day too, but I was really annoyed when I went and was told they have a different "special" (meaning cheaper and not gender-specific) toy for the "special" happy meals! Argh. That day I went just for the toy, too!

Thank you! I just got a Happy Meal with an extra toy :-) I have never been more excited about Happy Meal's toys until this! And... I have a boy, I want the Zoobles for me! :o

The toy without the meal is $1.50, and the meal is $3.50 here, today.

How do you find out about cheap happy meal day? DS eats a mighty kids meal so I normally pay $5 for his. DD is eating only a regular happy meal. Does it vary by location or is it something that the franchises have to do?

[calv]

mighty meal? didn't know there was such a thing OR that cheaper happy meal deals existed. Must investigate! ;)

so has anyone purchased the zoobles? aren't they cute? kids play w/them daily!! about time they came out w/the bakugan girl version. I remember loving transformers as a little girl!

[KrisM]

Locally, just the toy is $.99. we bought an extra yesterday.

Wow, Kris, you are lucky! I need to find #2 and #3, but the nearest McD only has #5 and #6. I don't want to go with DS either as I am sure he would want to get the Happy Meals but with Batman :-) I want the Zoobles. :hysterical:

The one yesterday had many of Rocky, which I think is #3. DD picked him in 2 colors. It'd cost you a bit more overall, but I'm happy to mail them to you, if you want.

DD loves Zoobles. We got Penny #7 in two colors yesterday. Today I stopped for a coffee and got Pandama #6 for $1.49 without the food. I wonder if I've totally missed 1-5?

It varies by location. The one by my house only has #5 and #6, the one further away has at least #2 and #3. So just go to different locations to get different ones. There are 8 altogether, but each one comes in 3 different colors. Check out happymeal.com.

Thanks Kris! I got Costello (#2) and #3 (Rocky) from another McD already. Now I want the bright colored ones! DH thinks I am funny :hysterical:

[alien_host]

Anyone want to trade? I have #6 pandama and #7 penny sealed in bags, I can check the colors tomorrow. I need #1 (name?) and #2 Costello to finish our set.

[inmypjs]

We got one of these toys last month, and I went today with the intent of buying a few more only to find the happy meals toys have changed! Darn. If anyone has any duplicates or any they want to sell, please pm me.

They are sold everywhere here -- TRU, Walmart, etc. The McD's ones seem to be a bit larger than the ones we've got that came in a set.

Looks like TRU in the US has them. http://www.toysrus.com/search/index.jsp?kwCatId=&kw=zoobles&origkw=zoobles&f=Taxonomy/TRUS/2254197&sr=1

I think maybe the poster was referring to the McD version of Zoobles. Although at $1.49 or $1.99 for McD version, I'd almost rather buy the original Zooble. I found them at Target for $3.99 each and I think the original ones are better (with the magnet that causes them to pop up) than the McD version.
