Official Press Release:
POWER RANGERS MARK A COLLABORATION
WITH McDONALD’S® THAT SPANS NEARLY TWO DECADES
LOS ANGELES
(September 20, 2011) – Saban Brands announced today that the #1 kids action
series Power Rangers Samurai is teaming up with McDonald’s to offer Power
Rangers toys in Happy Meals at participating McDonald’s restaurants throughout
North America. The relationship between these two iconic brands began in 1994
with a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Happy Meal. Over fifteen years
later, today’s collaboration focuses on positive lifestyle choices, including
fun fitness and balanced eating for America’s youth, and coincides with the
roll-out of McDonald’s new Happy Meal, that now includes apple slices in every
Happy Meal purchased.
“We are so
proud of the long relationship between the Power Rangers and McDonald’s,” said
Saban Brands president Elie Dekel. “It is a testament to the legacy of the
Power Rangers that McDonald’s and this iconic franchise have sustained their
collaboration long enough to introduce a new Power Rangers Happy Meal to a
second generation.”
Power
Rangers fans visiting participating North American McDonald’s restaurants between
Friday, September 16 and Thursday, October 13 will receive one of eight limited
edition toys inspired by the hit series Power Rangers Samurai, now
airing on Nickelodeon, with the purchase of a Happy Meal or Mighty Kids Meal.
This new promotion brings a mix of action figures and role-play items where kids
can recreate high-action moves in the
palms of their hands and inspire fun, active play.
McDonald’s new Happy Meal, which will begin to roll
out in select McDonald’s locations across the U.S. this month, will include a
smaller, 1.1-ounce portion of fries along with produce (apple slices, a quarter
cup or half serving) with the choice of a hamburger, cheeseburger or Chicken
McNuggets, and choice of beverage, including new fat-free chocolate milk and 1%
low fat white milk.
In addition, this promotion coincides with the newest
cycle of Power Rangers emPOWER, an initiative that inspires kids and families
to put the Power Rangers values of teamwork, confidence, health and
physical activity into action through programs at schools, online and at
events in local communities. Another way is to encourage exercise and active
play in and after school by using The Power Rangers emPOWER Activities. The emPOWER
Activity Kit Sweepstakes is offering schools and youth organizations the chance
to win a $10,000 donation and a visit from the Power Rangers and is available
through November 11, 2011 on PowerRangers.com.

Wait...they used the actual Megazord suit!? NICE! Maybe this gives some evidence that there may be American Zord footage in Samurai yet. :D
