The release of Burger King toys in 2023 has been a bit sporadic. Distribution frequency has slowed down since the heyday when promotions changed regularly. Nonetheless there are still a bunch of cool BK toys promotions in 2023 to keep collectors interested.

If you are not a fan of paper-based toys you will be pleased to know that for the most part Burger King is continuing with plastic toys. However, it has stated that it intends to move to sustainable toys long-term so plastic toys will be phased out. This year there has only been one promotion for paper toys which is the Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse set otherwise all toys to date in 2023 are plastic.

The current Burger King toys are 6 cute Paw Patrol figures to collect. The names of the six toys included in the set are: Rocky, Marshall, Rubble, Chase, Skye and Liberty.

These are plastic toys come with no articulation but each has its own gimmick that showcases the unique attributes and abilities of the character they’re based on.

They are being distributed in clear bags with instructions on the outside of the bag on how to use the toy. Unfortunately the names of each toy are not printed which makes it difficult for toy identification purposes but don't worry as the picture below shows each toy plus its name underneath.

Review

The pick of the toys is probably the Rocky badge as you can wear it and quickly activate the light inside. However with light up toys in general the battery can quickly become depleted leaving the toy next to useless. As the Marshall toy is also battery operated to the same applies to it too.

While the concept for the Rubble toy is good it does not really spin well.

The Skye toy wizzes up into the air and kids would need to be careful playing with it as it could possibly take an eye out. There have been complaints by concerned parents or should I say "pawrents" in the past when other fast food toys similar to this have been issued leading to them being taken off the market.

The Liberty and Chase toys both have good springs that allow them to shoot forward with some power.

The toys are excellent for display purposes so are highly suited to a collector who wants to include them in their fast food toys collection.


International Distribution

The Burger King Paw Patrol toys are available globally as well as in the US. Countries known to have these toys currently are:
  • Brazil - the film as known as Patrulha Canina: Um Filme Superpoderoso (PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie).
  • Singapore
  • Spain - Juguetes de la Patrulla Canina
  • Some parts of Latin America
  • Mexico - have Paw Patrol supernuggets on offer along with the six toys

If you are in the market for these Burger King Paw Patrol toys you can try buying them over the counter right now at BK restaurants without purchasing a King Jr. meal but don't be surprised if you get declined as Burger King is trying to sell burgers here after all. Alternatively you can jump on eBay and purchase the full set effortlessly for around US $30.
