McDonald's

McDonald's is an American fast food restaurant company founded in 1940 by Richard and Maurice McDonald and expanded into an empire under the leadership of businessman Ray Kroc in 1955. It is based in Oak Brook, Illinois and is one of the largest fast food chains in the world, with an investment of billions in the real estate of their franchise land properties alone and roughly 68 million people visit a McDonald's every day.

The company is also a major television commercial sponsor of children's programming, as McDonald's can gain a return profit by licensing specific shows to be made into their Happy Meal Toys to sell their meals to kids. In 1995, McDonald's made a deal with Saban to make Happy Meal Toys for the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers movie and continued to make Power Rangers toys for various seasons of the Power Rangers TV Show.

In 2007, Toei and TV Asahi signed a deal with McDonald's to sponsor their Sunday morning kids shows, including Super Sentai in 2011, for Happy Set Toys at their Japanese-based restaurants.
