Thanks to 2005 Boards member Shark Jumper for letting us know that Transformers Robots In Disguise Returns In US McDonald’s Happy Meal In December.
This is a different promotion from the ones we usually see. This time is a toy train promo with characters from promotions they had in the past and one of the carriages got characters from our most recent series: Transformers Robots In Disguise.
You can check the mirrored image after the jump and then you can share your impressions at the 2005 Boards!

Ooh, that makes sense. Three Autobots and Three Decepticons. Welp there goes that custom idea. '^^

Okay, so I just watched a video review, and the like you put on my comment summoned me back here
The cars in the tram include Bumblebee, Sideswipe, Strongarm, Bisk, Underbite, and Quickstrike (guy who I thought was Drift repainted from Strongarm)
LeonSteamhawk
So is the orange top-left car supposed to be Drift? If so, I kinda want to buy the Alpine Drift and Strongarm shelfwarming at my Walmart, swap heads, and make a "McDonalds Drift" with some orange paint.

Why not both? (cue the little girl from the Old El Paso tv commercial ).

On behalf of all Australian fans, we don’t want it. Give us all those Titans Return toys that never saw release here. Give us Overlord! Not this. Anything but this.

Thanks to a tip-off by Ozformers member lfpnrg (and for the 2 photos below), these are in Australia as well, and the Transformers train carriage was found here in the last week.

Fyi: Bumblebee just goes up and down when you push the train car.

I remember those they were the shit. I love their combined forms to.
And it's not even red!

Combine to form MCRaiden

Wow, Astrotrain sold out.

Cool, I want Bee and Rexie because nothing says happy winter holidays. Like a giant alien robot and a murderous dinosaur.

Looks like all the cars have some kind of gimmick that\'ll activate when it\'s rolled- the Minions and Rainbow Dash swing, the Hot Wheels car goes around the loop, etc.
But the RiD one strangely has no obvious gimmick. Maybe Bumblebee rises up for there\'s something on the back side?

I remember the McDonald's train that was very similar to this back in the 90's or something. I even had an almost identical Hot Wheels loop cart back then.
BWfan86
Nice! If I were a kid, I would love to get these. This really makes me want proper trainformers.
LegoLover58
Sounds like a plan to me!
Jazz210

Daimao

CowardlyZebra
I remember when you could get actual buildable bionicle from Micky D\'s. Actually no i dont i was like 2 but i have some
JLvatron
Aww, too bad.
Maybe we should re-purpose ALL of these as Transformers!
Like #4 is BW Dinobot, #10 is Astrotrain (from that Dreamwave Steelwave seies…)
