McDonald’s Super Mario Galaxy Happy Meal Toys 2026 Full List, US Exclusives, and Resale Value

Hey collectors, if you’ve been riding the Mario wave since the last movie tie-in, McDonald’s just dropped something fresh to keep the hype alive. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Happy Meal officially launched yesterday (March 26, 2026) at participating U.S. locations, right on schedule and just days before the film hits theaters on April 1. The tagline says it all: “3 boxes. 12 toys. Unlimited fun.” And yeah, it delivers on the nostalgia with those classic question-mark blocks straight out of the games.

For the standard Happy Meal price, you get your usual kid-friendly combo (burger or nuggets, fries, apples, drink) plus one random toy tucked inside a mystery ? box. The boxes themselves come in three different collectible designs themed around Mario, Peach, and Yoshi—nice little bonus if you’re hunting the full packaging look. Each toy is a posable keychain/clip-on figure with a star-shaped carabiner and its own mini backdrop stand for display. Think backpack clips meets desk decor. Super portable, super Mario.

Here’s the full U.S. lineup of 12 characters:

  • Mario (standard)
  • Fire Mario (US exclusive)
  • Frog Luigi
  • Princess Peach
  • Princess Rosalina
  • Luma (aka Yellow Luma)
  • Yoshi
  • Toad
  • Bowser
  • Bowser Jr.
  • Wonder Bowser Jr. (that distorted galaxy variant)
  • Birdo (US exclusive)

Mario and Bowser Jr. each get a second variant, which is a fun touch for completists. The two U.S.-only pieces (Fire Mario and Birdo) are already getting extra attention from resellers and overseas collectors who missed out.

Is This Set Actually Worth Anything to Collectors?

Look, fast-food toys rarely turn into retirement funds, but this one has that early-launch energy going for it. I checked eBay and collector groups this morning (less than 24 hours after drop), and the resale market is already moving.

Singles (unopened in the ? box): Most commons are listing around $8–12 right now. Popular pulls or the exclusives are creeping toward $15–20+ depending on the seller.

Complete sealed sets of 12: You’re seeing asking prices from $70 to $110, with a handful already moving in the $75–100 range on Facebook groups and eBay “Buy It Now.” Some sellers are shipping them for around $95 with PayPal G&S.

It’s the usual blind-bag scramble. People are buying multiple meals, flipping duplicates, and racing to complete sets before the hype cools. Resellers who jumped on similar promos in the past have made tidy profits in the first couple weeks, and the movie tie-in plus those US exclusives are helping drive demand.

For context, the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie Happy Meal toys (pretty similar keychain style) started hot but settled down fast. A few years later, full sets go for $20–40 on the secondary market. This Galaxy set feels like it’ll follow the same pattern: solid short-term flip potential while the film is fresh and supplies are spotty, then a slow glide to more reasonable collector prices once every kid in America has one.

Long-term value? Probably not “grail” territory. These are mass-produced, kid-targeted pieces. Condition matters—sealed ? boxes with the display stand intact will hold up best. The US exclusives and complete sets with all three box designs could stay a bit stronger than average Mario merch, but we’re talking fun collector territory, not “sell your house” money.

Bottom line: If you’re a Mario nut or just love the chase, grab a few Happy Meals while they’re easy to find. The toys are genuinely cute, the ? box gimmick is spot-on, and the keychain/stand combo makes them actually usable. For pure investors? Treat it like a quick flip window rather than a long hold. The real value here is the hunt and the nostalgia hit—everything else is bonus.

Keep an eye on eBay “sold” listings over the next week or two; prices will fluctuate as more stock hits stores. If you score a full set or snag those exclusives early, hit me up in the comments, I’d love to hear what you pulled.
