The French restaurants of MacDonalds did a Happy Meal promotion of six ''[[Rayman 2]]'' figures between the 17th May of 2000 and the 13th June of 2000 - at least one complete collection is known to be owned by a member of the fanbase. Its exclusive limited distribution in the Metropolitan France territory makes this collection very hard to find nowadays; despite of some of the figures being found in the French eBay. | The French restaurants of MacDonalds did a Happy Meal promotion of six ''[[Rayman 2]]'' figures between the 17th May of 2000 and the 13th June of 2000 - at least one complete collection is known to be owned by a member of the fanbase.

This figurine was once available to buy from the now defunct Ubi Art store as a means to promote the release of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' in 2006, until 2009 when it became unavailable before the store disappeared - at least two statues are known to be owned by members of the fanbase. It is a resin figurine that depicts Rayman riding on the back of a large [[Rabbid]], while wearing the Goth costume from said game. It is the last figuring based on Rayman himself to have been manufactured, before a large amount of [[Rabbids merchandise]] became available. | This figurine was once available to buy from the now defunct Ubi Art store as a means to promote the release of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' in 2006, until 2009 when it became unavailable before the store disappeared - at least two statues are known to be owned by members of the fanbase.
