Adults too old for a McDonald’s Happy Meal now have their own merchandise to collect. The fast-food giant is offering a new meal deal and line of six collectible cups starting Tuesday.
The Collector’s Edition cups reference McDonald’s souvenirs from the past, including prior partnerships with toy company Mattel, Coca-Cola, Universal Pictures, Ty Beanie Babies and Hello Kitty creator Sanrio, as well as the 1976 mug that featured McDonald’s original character, Grimace.
To get a cup, collectors can buy a Collector’s Meal at breakfast, including a Sausage McMuffin with egg, hash browns and a medium coffee or one of two nonbreakfast options, which include medium fries, a medium soft drink and 10-piece McNuggets or a Big Mac.
The cups are available to customers in over 30 countries.
“These new collectible cups commemorate some of our most unforgettable designs and global collaborations over the years, allowing longtime fans to relive treasured moments and helping a new generation make their own lasting memories,” McDonald’s Global Chief Marketing Officer and Head of New Business Ventures Morgan Flatley said in a release.
