McDonald's Happy Meals still hold a special place in our hearts. I mean, there's a reason that they are making adult meals with collectible toys in them now - all the 90s kids who have disposable incomes still want to go back and collect Grinch socks and Friends figurines, because collecting is in our blood!
Mike Wing has taken to X to tell us all about his latest invention, an online Gachapon machine that you can use to collect every single Happy Meal toy in a sort of fast-food Pokédex. He's scraped every toy that ever dropped inside the iconic box and made them available to snap up, complete with food to chomp down on with sound effects as you tap chips, burgers, chicken nuggets, and healthy snacks.
Red boxes show up 1 to 3 toys at a time, but you'll have a 1 in 30 chance of picking a gold box which can have anything from 6 to 10 toys inside it. And there's no waiting for hourglasses to stack up or anything like in the Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket App - you could literally sit here all day opening Happy Meal boxes if you wanted!

Once you've got a few pieces, you can see them all in your collection. And there are a lot of Retro Gaming and 90s nostalgia toys that you might have forgotten about too that crop up. If you get any toys you're not keen on, you can pick three and trade them with Ronald McDonald to get one random toy.
Clicking on a toy will show you how rare it is and when it released, as well as a link to eBay where you can pick it up to add to your real collection. It's a very clever idea and one that I'll be using to pick up some toys from my childhood while unlocking some memories at the same time.
Head to McGachapon to check it out for yourself!
