Alright folks, let's talk about the elephant in the room... or should I say, the Creeper in the Happy Meal box? So, to celebrate the release of A Minecraft Movie (yeah, it's finally real in 2026!), McDonald's dropped a whole set of themed toys. And get this—it's not just for the kiddos this time! They've got toys for the adult meals too, which honestly feels like a personal win for us grown-up collectors who still get way too excited about little plastic things with our burgers. There are 18 toys in total, split between Happy Meals and the new Minecraft-themed adult combos. That means you can snag a Big Mac, some nuggets, or a veggie burger while hunting for that perfect collectible. The downside? My wallet and my stomach are already screaming at the thought of trying to get all 18. Talk about a commitment!

Now, let's dive into this blocky buffet and see what's worth the extra fries.

The 'Meh'-tier: When Plastic Just Doesn't Hit the Same

Let's start with some of the... less exciting offerings. No hate, just honest vibes.

18. Evoker

Look, I get it. The Evoker is a faithful recreation of the in-game mob. But dude, this thing is straight-up terrifying. It's giving me flashbacks to panicked sprints through Woodland Mansions, yelling 'I JUST WANTED SOME EMERALDS!' while being chased. Yes, it drops the Totem of Undying, but at what cost to my sanity? This toy evokes nothing but fear. Hard pass for my display shelf.

17. Grass Block & Llama

Grass blocks and llamas are Minecraft staples, iconic even. But as toys? They're kinda... basic. Especially stacked against the rest of the lineup. Also, this llama low-key judges me. I can feel it. It's like it knows about all those 'unfortunate accidents' involving Wandering Traders near my lava pits. Don't look at me like that, Mr. Llama. It was an architectural necessity.

16. Skeleton

How did they make this skeleton look scarier than the ones that snipe you from dark forests? The vibe is all wrong. It's got this eerie, almost... budget Iron Golem energy? My guy, are you feeling okay? You look like you've seen things. Not the playful spooky I signed up for.

15. Stone Block & Garrett

Jason Momoa's character Garrett looks epic in the trailers—full of chaotic energy. But trapping that energy in a muted, plastic stone block? It's a crime. The colors are dull, and putting a cool character inside the most boring block (sorry, stone) feels like a punishment. What did Garrett do to deserve this?

14. Gold Block & Dawn

Another 'person in a block' situation. Danielle Brooks's Dawn deserves better! At least she got a shiny gold block instead of boring old stone—a definite upgrade. Her outfit's colors pop more too. But still... she's a tiny person in a cube. The concept just doesn't capture the movie's magic. Maybe the toy designers just aren't fans of the surface world, you know?

The Adult Meal Oddities: Fast Food, But Make It Blocky

These come with the bigger meals. They're... an experience.

13. Big Mac Crystal Block

mcdonald-s-2026-minecraft-movie-toys-a-super-honest-bite-sized-review-image-5

Welcome to the adult meal toys! This one is described as 'mined from a sea of special sauce.' I'm sorry, what? Even the 'radiant melty cheese' detail can't save that mental image. It's creative, I'll give them that, but it's also just a block. A Big Mac block, but a block nonetheless. The included skin is pretty bland too. Minecraft is about imagination, and this feels like a missed opportunity. It gives me... weird vibes. Let's move on.

12. Soda Potion

This one beats the Big Mac block purely on shape. It's an actual bottle! From afar, it looks decent, channeling those classic Minecraft potion vibes (and soda, obviously). Is it still kinda basic? Yeah. But there's something hilariously fun about the idea of running around the Overworld dressed as a giant soda bottle. It's whimsical! The Big Mac block just reminds me of internet memes I'm too old to understand, and I'd rather not go down that rabbit hole today, thank you very much.

The Solid Wins: Where the Toys Actually Shine

Now for the good stuff! These are the ones you hope to find in your bag.

11. Redstone Block & Creeper

Now we're talking! This pairing is iconic Minecraft logic. Creepers are drawn to Redstone like moths to a flame, always ready to ruin your fancy piston door. But here's the thing: Creepers are manageably scary. You can outsmart them. That 'ssss' sound triggers panic, but it's a satisfying panic. Plus, they drop gunpowder for your own explosive needs. They're the most lovable hostile mob, and this cute cube version totally gets it. A solid, classic pick.

10. Pink Wool Block & Pink Sheep

Pure. Joy. Finding a pink sheep in-game is a magical moment, no matter how many hours you've logged. This toy captures that serotonin boost perfectly. Pink sheep? Adorable. Pink wool? Delightful. This block combo is an instant mood-lifter. Here's hoping it's easier to find than its 0.164% spawn rate in-game counterpart!

9. Wolf

The ultimate good boy. Tamed wolves are the most loyal companions in the game. Having one (or ten) by your side makes you feel invincible. They've got your back, they eat whatever you throw at them (even accidentally), and they're just the best. This toy deserves a spot of honor. Wolves are, without a doubt, Minecraft's goodest boys, and this plastic homage does them justice. 10/10, would pet.

Final Thoughts: Is the Grind Worth It?

So, what's the verdict? This 2026 collab is a mixed bag, honestly. You've got some absolute gems like the Wolf and the Pink Sheep that scream 'must-have.' Then you've got the... conceptually interesting choices from the adult meals (looking at you, Special Sauce Crystal).

Verdict Toys Why
Must-Hunt Wolf, Pink Sheep, Creeper Block Iconic, cute, and bring pure Minecraft joy.
Fun Novelty Soda Potion Unique shape, silly concept that works.
For Completists Only Evoker, Skeleton, Human-in-a-Blocks Either too scary, too dull, or a weird concept.
The 'Um...' Tier Big Mac Crystal The 'special sauce' lore is a choice. A bold, confusing choice.

At the end of the day, it's a fun promotion that lets adults join the toy-collecting fun. Just be prepared to explain to the cashier why you, a fully grown human, are ordering three Happy Meals and an adult combo. Tell them it's for... research. Yeah, research. Totally. Happy hunting, miners and crafters! May your fries be salty and your toy pulls be legendary. ud83cudf54ud83dudd04
