Next set of Mcdonalds ponies revealed. Rainbowified

[Fricknmaniac]

Does anyone have an idea of how early they might be available on Friday? For example, if you go in at midnight on Friday will they be available, or do you have to wait for the lunch menu to cycle around for the next day?

it all depends  the mcdonalds i worekd for   when we ran out of the toy we'd  go grab the box  so    if thre suppsoed to be out driday i'm   sure they will have them out  friday morning.. but i could be wrong.  i would    say jsut check when you can.   thursday night might be a little  early.

I live right behind a McDonald's and walk my dog past it every night. I'll ask them Thursday night when I do my nightly walk.

Does anyone know if all McDonalds get the same toys at the same time/in the same order? I'm only interested in snagging a Luna so I don't really want to make fifty million trips lol

Wish we had these over here in the UK.

They don't. I wanna say that a lot of stores will have the first few ponies, but some will get the later runs first. I remember during that starting week the first g4 toys came out, none of the McDs in my city had Princess Celestia (they had the first two or four ponies, IIRC). But a friend of mine who lived 30 minutes away managed to get Celestia (along with the other later numbered ponies) from hers that same week, more or less.
Although i am aware that some McDonalds usually have a customer service/happiness(?) box that had a few full sets in them, but I dunno if still do this or not (or if you can get a manager/employee to open it for you).

Did we get a date for the release? Or am I just not seeing it lol

I am wondering if you can just buy the ponies? We don't eat there that much.

yup, you can. IIRC, they usually cost about $2 if you just want the toy and no happy meal.

Last time they had the ponies at McDonald's, I asked a manager about the Customer Satisfaction Box and was told they didn't get them. The next day I went back and asked another manager, and that one went right in the back, grabbed the box and opened it right on the counter and let me pick what I wanted out of it. I'd say try asking another manager. Regular employees might not know what they are, but managers should. I've heard that in certain stores, they decide not to open the box because if they don't, they can send it back at the end of the promotion and not get charged for it. So that could be the case.

i've never heard of this before.. a customer apricateion box? hmm well i might see if mine has that! lol what do we say?   do they have th customer satifaction or apriacation box?
