MCDONALD'S announced in late 2022 that they would be releasing adult Happy Meals for a limited time.
Along with the new menu options, McDonald's also announced a collaboration with streetwear brand Cactus Plant Flea Market, which helped design the new adult-themed toys.
What are the McDonald's adult Happy Meal toys variations?
The Happy Meal is a popular choice on McDonald's menus for younger children that first launched in 1979.
Along with the bright red box with a yellow smiley face, the meal often comes with a toy based on a popular movie or TV show.
So when McDonald's announced their adult Happy Meals, consumers were not shocked when they also released adult-themed toys to go along with them.

With each adult Happy Meal, fast-food lovers nationwide will have the opportunity to get one of four limited edition toys based on classic McDonald's characters.
"Everyone remembers their first Happy Meal® as a kid... and the can’t-sit-still feeling as you dug in to see what was inside," the company said in a press release, via Mashable.
"That little red box could turn a regular Tuesday into the best. day. ever. And now, we’re reimagining that experience in a whole new way — this time, for adults."
The toys include distorted versions of Grimace, Hamburglar, and Birdie, which were iconic characters often featured in McDonald's commercials.
