The Joker Helicopter

McDonald's started selling Happy Meals with Lego Batman toys for the boys and Madame Alexander's The Wizard of Oz dolls for the girls today. I managed to snag The Joker Helicopter, which is the second toy out of the eight available. The cockpit has the Crown Prince of Crime, a pop-on blade, a rotating spotlight and an odd-shapped missle that is yellowish in color. The missle can be placed in a spring slot underneath and released by pushing a button on the back.

Two panels of the Happy Meal box is devoted to the Lego Batman toys while the other two panels is devoted to the Madame Alexander's The Wizard of Oz dolls (remember when each Happy Meal toy series had their own boxes?). My sister got the first toy in that set, which is Dorothy. There is a find the five hidden Jokers game, find hidden foes and a bat-signal pop-out that you can attached to a flashlight. I don't know if there are other boxes but there should be since the only toys shown is the bat-boat, Mr. Freeze, Penguin boat (?), Batman and Robin.

I like the missle and the rotating blade but the spotlight seems like a useless feature. I would rather have the cockpit open up so I could see the Joker better. Overall, I have to give The Joker Helicopter a 6 out of 10.

For those who are curious, my Happy Meal consisted of a cheeseburger, fries and a Sprite.
