I see a few errors in the cards, like Vegeta having a scouter with Namek era clothes and Vegeta's Galick Gun beam being blue instead of purple, but they are awesome nonetheless. It's awesome to see how the manufactures of Dragon Ball merchandise can still make it look SO freaking awesome. Wish America got cards like that.

The downside is that you have to eat McDonald's to get these. I'd rather pick a fight with Vegeta.
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

Vegeta wear Scouter at the early Namek arc

so it's not an error and that's not Galick Gun,It's an attack that's make your punch more powerful(Vegeta use one on Goku,only this time for some reason it's blue instead of purple).

After Vegeta is hit by the X4 Kamehameha, his leg shields get torn off.
And he wore the scouter for a short time on Namek with that armor, from when he lands to when he kills Dodoria.

Your chances of dying are about as equal.

Wait, so McDonalds knows more about what color Kaioken is supposed to be than the animators of Dragon Ball Kai?
Super Saiyan Blue is not a creative color.
DBZ Movie 3 told a stronger and more believable "Evil Goku" story in 60 minutes than Dragon Ball Super has in 20 episodes. And it did it with better visuals and score.

You're assuming these weren't made elsewhere for McDonalds's, rather that they were made in-house? These were likely commissioned by McDonald's and created via Shueisha.

Yeah, come on. If they had gotten one of their fry-cooks to sketch out these characters, the cards would be all greasy!
But, still, I did laugh at the fact that the color of the Kaio-ken is more accurate on these cards than in the show.

Greasy, and probably of a higher visual quality and consistency than Kai's reanimated scenes!

Aaw, all of you disappoint me. You haven't thought of the obvious joke to go with this.
Hint. What on all of the cards could be construed into a Dragonball setting?

Ah, I stand corrected. But I still think Vegeta's blue beam is an error.

A McDonald's restaurant? I don't know. It's late. I give up.
