McDonald’s is once again tapping into the power of nostalgia with its latest promotion: the Collector’s Meal featuring a throwback to collector cups.
This limited-time starts August 7th, and offer combines classic McDonald’s menu items with a collectible cup designed to bring us back in time to the heyday of collectors cups.
A Cupful of Nostalgia

From the vibrant world of Barbie and Hot Wheels to the cuddly charm of Beanie Babies, the cups cater to a wide range of nostalgic preferences.
Other cups showcase the enduring appeal of Coca-Cola, the timeless innocence of Hello Kitty and Peanuts, and the pop culture phenomena of Shrek, Jurassic Park, and Minions. Even McDonald’s itself gets a nostalgic nod, featuring iconic collectibles like the Grimace Glass and Happy Meal toys.

The meal options vary depending on the time of day, offering breakfast classics like the Sausage McMuffin or lunch/dinner favorites such as Chicken McNuggets or a Big Mac.
