McDonalds Mario Kart Toys 2022

McDonald's Mario Kart Toys 2022 were the free toy giveaway in happy meals at McDonalds in the USA beginning March 8, 2022. Outside of the US the Encanto toys were promoted in Mexico, Latin America and South America. There are 8 Mario Kart happy meal toys to collect in the full set, each representing characters from the Nintendo Mario Kart racing game.

McDonald's Mario Kart Toys 2022 (March 8 - April 5, 2022)

The McDonalds Mario happy meal toys 2022 are a re-release of the original promotion of Mario Kart 8 McDonalds toys back in 2014 (and 2015 in some countries). This new set is basically the same as the one in 2014 except that Mario's red visor has been dropped from the line-up with the inclusion of Toadette.

The release of the Mario Kart Deluxe toys by McDonalds is a partnership with Nintendo who recently released the Mario 8 Kart Deluxe version of the game. The release of the new McDonalds Mario Kart toys was, strategically, just two days before the fan day that Nintendo runs on March 10.

The McDonald's Mario toys are simple plastic representations of the Mario Kart characters sitting in or on their respective hover vehicles. Most you can only slide across a smooth service apart from Yoshi who is on wheels. The detail is good though so they look pretty good on display.

Each Mario happy meal toy comes with a set of character-themed stickers with classic designs like M for Mario and DK for Donkey Kong to decorate the vehicles. The 2022 stickers have been updated and are not identical to the 2014 ones.

The 8 McDonald's Mario Kart Toys 2022 in this happy meal toy set are:

1. 1. Mario


2. 2. Luigi


3. 3. Princess Peach


4. 4. Yoshi


5. 5. Toad


6. 6. Bowser


7. 7. Donkey Kong


8. 8. Toadette

McDonalds Mario Kart Activities
As usual during a happy meal promotion McDonalds also provided kids with Mario-related activities to download from the website. Two Mario sheets to color were available to downloaded for free.

Some other countries had the McDonalds Mario Kart toys 2022 too. I am still researching what Latin American and South American countries go these in their happy meals (#cajita feliz). Please leave a comment if you know your country got these toys. That would really help me out.

The McDonalds Mario Kart set was an interesting choice to bring back. I would have preferred that they did something new with the characters rather than recycle the old ones. McDonalds may have decided to promote them as a swansong to plastic toys which are being phased out. Who knows?


If you missed these McDonalds Mario Kart 2022 promotion fear not. You can still pick these up on secondhand marketplaces like Etsy and EBay.
