In Winter 2020, Arby's gets Sonic!
Rolling into their kids meals are these character disk toys. If they look familiar...it's because they're pretty similar to the ones you get in the Jakks Pacific bendable figures as the 'extra character', though these aren't as elaborate. You can get Sonic, Tails, Amy or Knuckles. The rolling disk has 2 round sections and a 'foot' so that when it is on display it won't fall over. The disks are pressed down/together 1 behind the other so that it makes a portrait on a flat disk that's fairly thick so you can roll it along. If you want these at Arby's though, you'll likely have to actually get the meal because the restaurant doesn't sell the toy seperately like some of them do. With nice CG art, modern characters in fun poses (reaching Amy, fist out Knuckles) these are an all right meal toy to be able to collect. They look fresh and are simple enough to probably always just work. Discovered by Taaron
*Opinion zone:
What's actually up with rolling disks? They're like...super popular and have been for some time? There's quite a few that have been both prizes and actual for sale toys in both the USA and the EU. And now, they're back in Jakks Pacific and then also here again as a meal prize. There's nothing wrong with them, they're probably ok to play with, but it just seems odd how many of them there are (when it could have been a ball/bounce/any variety of toy but somehow it's a a wheel a lot)
