Neopets Merchandise in Australia

Mon May 31, 2004 9:17 pm

I was wondering if anyone knew of any shops which have any Neopets stuff in? The onyl things i've found is the Neopets TCG (First edition) in Games World in the shopping center, does anyone else from australia know of somewhere?

It depends which part of Australia you're from but you should be able to find Neopets merchandise in a local Toys'R'Us store and Neopets TCGs [all series'] in EB Games stores.

I haven't seen any plushies as of yet, but I'm hoping those McDonald's Happy Meal ones come out here.

I've seen a few at Toys 'R Us, but that's about it.

And Target.

Darn...

They aren't at EB here, (Perth), I walk thru a shopping mall on the way home everyday from school, and i'm pretty sure they don't.

Yeah I really want the plushies

I don't think the happy meals are coming out here...

I think they are... they said that the US promotion began... that hints at the possibility of the promotion being in other countries!
Can't get your hopes up, though. It's TNT, after all.

I suppose, but then again that could just be put there so there wasn't confusion with people form other countries wondering why their Happy Meal didn't have neo toys in it?

Hopefully though

I'm a vege, but if they had them at maccas i would SOOO buy them

what??! we can get the TCG???! my toys r us said they didn't exist :dry:

as far as i know, we aussies can get the neopens, voice activated neopets (they have new ones out about a month or so back, i have like 5 now, how sad) the pocket neopets and the deluxe pocket neopets which in no way actually fit into your pocket.

its ironic that the CEO of mcdonalds is an aussie, and there is absolutely no hint that they are going to get down here. currently we have the new snoopy toys, a theme that they rerun every 5 months, i would LOVE it if they actually got something different,

Nopets main campaign appears to be concentrated in the US and Canada. The other countries will have to wait, although I'm thinking they'd want to penetrate the asian markets first.

I know. My sister has a hundred of them from the last time they were out and now they're out again, so I expect another hundred more Snoopy toys at home. :roll:

http://www.mcdonalds.com.au/home Click on Contact. Fill in details and request they put the neopet promo in Aussie Happy Meals.

Macca's Head Office (which is at Thornleigh NSW) is in Sydney. The more emails we send the more chance we get the promotion in Australia!
