Making their McDonald's Happy Meal and Mighty Kids Meal® debut, the quirky critters of LITTLEST PET SHOP feature bobbling heads, oversized eyes and detailed accessories for purr-fect playtime fun. The McDonald's Happy Meal LITTLEST PET SHOP collection features eight palm-sized pets, including four cute critters available exclusively at McDonald's. From a cute Kitten to a playful Puppy, this adorable collection features something for every animal lover. A good-natured Monkey, colorful Macaw and sweet Salamander are perfect companions, and a friendly Hedgehog, mischievous Mouse and little Lamb are sure to leave their paw-prints on America's heart.

The highly popular Yu-Gi-Oh! GX trading card game features the next generation of Yu-Gi-Oh! heroes. McDonald's Happy Meal and Mighty Kids Meal Yu-Gi-Oh! GX line-up features 20 exclusive trading cards and eight popular characters. The Jaden Yuki, Zane Truesdale and Aster Phoenix wrist accessories feature exciting trading card launchers. Winged Kuriboh® LV10, Cyber End Dragon and Destiny Hero Doom Lord bring action and adventure to this futuristic collection -- pull back the toys to lock them into position, and insert the trading card to watch the characters roll forward. Young guests can amaze their friends with the Yami Yugi magic trick toy as trading cards 'disappear' into a hidden drawer.
