The popular Squishmallow plush toys are gearing up for a dance with McDonald’s Happy Meals.
Squishmallow, made by the toy company Jazwares, was first launched in 2017 but really hit it’s stride as the plush to have and collect by 2020. Some rare Squishmallow plushies can even fetch up to hundreds on Ebay, if not more.
24 Exclusive Versions
The forces will join to offer 24 collectible Squishmallows with one coming with each Happy Meal.
McDonald’s locations are slated to have 10-12 varieties available at any given time so if you’re into collecting all 24, you may have to visit a couple different locations, trade, or run a search on Ebay.
14 of the 24 Squishmallow’s will also come with a playlist that can be scanned via QR code. The playlist is tailored to each plushies personality, curated by Universal Music Group.
Via press release, Senior Vice President of Brand and Marketing for Jazwares said, “In partnering with McDonald’s we are able to bring fans a 360-degree Squishmallows experience.”
McDonald’s just recently announced the celebration of Grimace’s 51st anniversary and the subsequent Grimace Birthday Meal.
The press release continued, “This Happy Meal campaign brings the worlds of McDonald’s, Squishmallows and music together to elevate the fan experience and evolve our iconic Happy Meal brand in culture. Adding exclusive music playlists to our toys is a first for Happy Meal and we are extremely proud to collaborate with Jazwares’ Squishmallows, the #1 plush brand worldwide.”
