McDonald’s Debuts Collector’s Meal, Offers Collectible Cups – WorthPoint

The first McDonald’s drive-in restaurant opened in 1940. Since then, McDonald’s has become the world’s largest restaurant chain by revenue and served over 300 billion hamburgers. During its history, it has also offered many unforgettable collectibles, several of which are celebrated with its new Collector’s Meal.

This month, McDonald’s will offer a Collector’s Meal featuring six unique collectible cups at participating restaurants. With these cups, McDonald’s is “bringing back some of [their] most-loved keepsakes with a twist,” Global Chief Marketing Officer Morgan Flatley said.

Flatley noted that the collectible cups commemorate some of McDonald’s most unforgettable characters and global collaborations to date. Here are the cup designs:

• McDonald’s characters
• Coca-Cola
• Hello Kitty and Peanuts
• Beanie Babies
• Barbie and Hot Wheels
• Shrek, Jurassic Park, and Minions

Get your hands on the cups and take a trip down memory lane with McDonald’s starting August 13. The cups will be available during breakfast hours if you order a Sausage McMuffin with Egg meal or at other times throughout the day if you order a ten-piece Chicken McNuggets or Big Mac meal.

In addition to offering the Collector’s Meal, McDonald’s has partnered with artists to reimagine characters and collaborations highlighted on its collectible cups. As part of this effort, McDonald’s is offering a Snapchat augmented reality experience. To enjoy this experience, scan your collectible cup on Snapchat or visit McDonald’s Snapchat profile.

McDonald’s will also host collector experiences in Los Angeles and New York on August 17.

In Los Angeles, McDonald’s fans can attend a Collector’s Club Poolside Paradise at Santa Monica Pier. This event features a beachside pool party, limited-edition drinks inspired by McDonald’s Collector’s Meal cups, and more.

If you’re in Coney Island, use your collectible cup for a free ride on the Phoenix Roller Coaster at Deno’s Wonder Wheel Amusement Park.
