Japan's Super Mario Happy Meal toys landed stateside this week. Collectors can find them at participating McDonald's fast food restaurants until May 22. The toy line includes jumping Mario, Luigi in a pipe, Princess Peach, Bowser, a red Koopa shell, a 1-Up Mushroom, Yoshi, and Invincible Mario.
Europe previously got its own version of the Happy Meal toys, albeit with some differences. That run included a Piranha Plant and Question Block with Invincibility Star instead of the 1-Up Mushroom and Invincible Mario.
McDonald's will also give away a Nintendo Switch with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to 100 winners who enter the contest before May 22. Contestants must use the McD app to scan and purchase an offer before the contest end date to be entered to win.
Japanese McDonald's locations have previously offered Sanrio character, Doraemon, and Yōkai Watch prizes. Mario Kart 8 toys were also offered in 2014.
