Kirby Toy

[Flack]

My apologies if someone else posted this. I did a quick scan and couldn't find anyone else talking about it.

My wife and son stopped by Wendy's for dinner. When I walked by his high chair, I noticed he was playing with some sort of jigsaw puzzle. When I walked back by him I saw it was Kirby of Nintendo fame.

Anyway, I just saw the box and it says Nintendo, Wendy's Kid's Meal and Board Game on the front with a picture of Kirby. It's a 4 piece jigsaw puzzle that turns into a board game.

Not sure if they have other Nintendo or Kirby items there. Just wanted to pass this on.

Yea they did it to promote Kirby's Air ride.I saw this 1st grader playing with one in school and laughed cause he has probably never played a REAL kirby game. Not some stupid racing knockoff with Kirby Characters in it.

PULLBACK BOWLING KIRBY

Help Kirby strike some of his enemies. Bowl with Ice Kirby and knock down the "bad guys"! Each bowling "pin" has its own point value. Challenge your friends to a tournament!

ASK COOK KIRBY

Will you win your next game? Do your friends like your new haircut? Ask Cook Kirby! The powerful chef answers a variety of questions. Pull down the frying pan and the answer appears!

WARPSTAR KIRBY CLIP

This colorful Warpstar Kirby will jazz up any backpack or bag. Easily attaches to belt loops too! For extra fun, detach clip and use it as a rolling toy.

KIRBY BOARD GAME

Kirby gives you twice the fun with his double-sided board game! Each side features a different Kirby game. Perfect for fun on the go!

Actually, these promote the "new" cartoon.

It's very interesting IMHO. All CG with mostly cel shaded graphics.

I've seen it once before, I think its on the WB. Check it out for the style alone.

Yes, I saw Sonic on FOX this past Saturday. I enjoyed it very much.

I noticed they had those when I grabbed Wendy's for lunch. I bought the Ask Cook one.

And they even gave me a kirby bag too :D

I thought I saw sonic x ( I think thats the title ) on fox.
pretty sure it was sunday though....

Sonic X isn't terribly special... I miss the old ABC Saturday morning series and Sonic Underground. Much better.

(Note: ABC series not to be confused with the Steve Urkle repulsive animated Sonic shows... bleck!)

I watch Sonic X occasionally, I downloaded the first few episodes when I first heard about the series launching in Japan. Believe me, the series (like many others people rant about) is a LOT better in it's original form. Not just voices, but dialogue and the opening.
