Hands on with McDonald's Happy Meal VR headset — and we're lovin' it

McDonald's announced last month it was turning its iconic Happy Meal boxes into foldable VR headsets in Sweden. While the concept isn't yet slated to debut in other countries, Mashable recently got its hands on one of the boxes, and it might be one of the coolest DIY VR headsets we've seen to date.

First, let's back it up. The Happy Meal promotion called Happy Goggles is similar in most ways to Google cardboard, allowing users to fold up the box to assemble a makeshift VR headset. It essentially turns the Happy Meal box into the toy itself.
