Here is the illustration of McDonald's Happy Set Plarail toys (is "Happy Set" anoter name for "Happy Meal" in Japan?) from Takara Tomy website:
It's a shame they never release it with some trains that have single units that are "complete", like railcars of Hiei Railway, Meitetsu, some trams etc. They always use only the first car of some popular Shinkansen or a commuter train (Hayabusa, Yamanote, Dr. Yellow), and if you connect them all together with that front coupler and run them using your own motorized unit in front of such a train, they would look a bit silly, wouldn't they? Or they could release different cars of the same train (so you could compose the whole train) in one Happy Set Plarail series... Why always just the front car of a multiple unit train? [Nitpicking End.]
Anyway, I really like the "accessories". Some elements could be really useful on a layout. The timetable display with the clock looks really nice (I wouldn't mind having it on the platform of my Central Station). Some McDonald's themed stuff are looking good too. What do you say, Super? Wouldn't some of them look cool near your customized J-25 Overpass McDonald's Station?
