Trivia

 * Ama and the Mysterious Crystal, Galaxion, Paint World, Mistress Masham's Repose, Me & Mobo, Magina, Computeropolis, M.I.S.S.I.O.N., BJ and Wally (inside the United States), Swapped, and Quest are the only Universal Animation Studios films so far not to be promoted by McDonald's. However, McDonald's did promote BJ and Wally in some countries (particularly Europe and Asia) outside of the United States and Latin America.
 * Despicable Me, Hop, The Lorax, and The Grinch are the only Illumination films not to be promoted by McDonald's.
