McDonald's Squishmallow Happy Meal Toys (Including a Grimace Plush!) Are Finally Here
The Squishmallow Happy Meal toys come in classic characters and one "surprise mystery" plush
McDonald’s customers around the world got to score Squishmallow Happy Meal toys. Now, fans in the U.S. can get in on the limited-time toys.
Starting Dec. 26, the fast food chain will be handing out 12 types of Squishmallows with the purchase of a Happy Meal.
McDonald's partnered with Jazwares and Universal Music Group to add one of 12 Squishmallows to each kids meal. The lineup includes classic Squishmallow characters, like Cam and Fifi, and a special toy specific to McDonald’s: Grimace. There's also a "surprise mystery character" for fans to uncover, according to the company.
The plush goodies will will be available nationwide for a limited time, while supplies last.
Earlier this year, there were two dozen "exclusive and seasonally themed" Squishmallows at participating McDonald's in over 70 countries worldwide.
Now each Squishmallow in the U.S. will be interactive with an attached QR code that you can scan to listen to exclusive music playlists based on the characters' personalities.
McDonald’s isn’t only handing out trendy toys. In a blast from the past, the chain brought back McNugget Buddies: the nostalgic Happy Meal collectibles.
The toys’ reprisal comes after more than 25 years off the market. The six different McNugget Buddy collectibles, each with different outfits and backstories, came in partnership with New York City-based artist Kerwin Frost. Frost helped redesign the mascots and created a meal for fans to order.
The new Buddies are inspired by Frost’s childhood in Harlem and one of the toys is a miniature version of the DJ, aptly named Kerwin Frost and adorned with a matching face tattoo. The other McNugget Buddies are Don Bernice, Uptown Moe, Waffutu, BRRRICK and Darla. Each toy is decked out in interchangeable outfits.
The corresponding meal, the Kerwin Frost Box, includes one McNugget Buddy, fries, a soft drink and your choice of 10-piece McNuggets or a Big Mac.
