Not so long ago there was a Super Mario range of McDonald's Happy Meal toys in the UK; restaurants near Nintendo Life HQ reported increased sales to late 20s / early 30s bearded men, some of whom had no children in tow to justify their visit. We even did an unboxing.

The same wave of enthusiasm for cheap food and collectible plastic toys is set to engulf Malaysia, too, as a fresh range of Super Mario toys are available in the country from today. Importantly, they're different toys to those we recently saw in the UK, which naturally fills us with envy. As you can see above Toad and Luigi miss out in favour of Mario in various outfits, including his snazzy Boomerang and Penguin threads. Princess Peach also makes an appearance after her absence in the UK, too.

I mean... yeah who else is going to care

 

[vinnygambini]

Nintendo wants us to buy their NFC figures instead.

Please understand.

 

[wapplew]

Oh my, I don't want to line-up like everyone else but I guess Mario is not as famous as Hello Kitty here.

 

[ignata]

They will never live up to these

Crap, I was going through old things and ran into these in a box of random junk. God we are old.

 

[Maxrunner]

Wow, that brings back memories.

I could really go for a Malaysian Happy Meal right now. I bet they have some nice regional choices like the Korean bulgogi hamburgers, too.

I still have that Mario

These were certainly better than derp Sonic McDonalds toys.

But Burger King's toys for Toy Story still stand out as the best thing ever.

Clearly not. None of them appear to do backflips.

My brother's dog ate my goomba...I wanted to throw tennis balls into traffic for months after that...

I had that knuckles. I loved him like he was a normal looking toy.

 

[excaliburps]

Yeah, we had thse same toys last month or something, too. Unfortunately, I only managed to buy two and I can't even keep them since my daughter finds them adorable.

I use to have that knuckles one. I loved that thing.

 

[Scoops]

Mario's enjoying that goal pole.

 

[Nightengale]

Malaysians love their Happy Meals toys.

We went insane for Despicables Me 2 toys when that toy was in promotion.

count me in for them, if they bring em stateside..

 

[SummitAve]

I thought I remember 8-4 saying these were made by a small Japanese company, and that the scale of the states wouldn't really be possible. That might have been other recent mario fast food toys though. I can't quite remember.

Our regional choice is this.
