After McDonald’s brought back the popular McDonaldland character Grimace earlier this year for a marketing campaign, the fast food giant is bringing more nostalgia in December.
The McNugget Buddies are returning thanks to a collaboration with creative director and DJ Kerwin Frost.
McDonald’s says Frost “found creative inspiration from his childhood McNugget Buddy collection” and now the characters are returning for the first time in over 25 years.
The adult Happy Meal will come with a 10-piece Chicken McNugget or Big Mac, fries and a drink, along with one of the following Nugget Buddy characters: Kerwin Frost, Don Bernice, Uptown Moe, Waffutu, BRRRICK or Darla.
The new adult Happy Meals will be available on December 11.
"With last year's Cactus Plant Flea Market Box, we unlocked the childlike joy of opening a Happy Meal box for fans of all ages," said Tariq Hassan, McDonald's USA Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer.
"Fans told us they wanted to celebrate that quintessential childhood experience again. So, we're excited to team up with Kerwin on this next take, as he brings his own childhood McDonald's memories to life through reimagined McDonald's characters, immersing our fans in the world of Frost Way."
The Nugget Buddies first debuted in 1988.
McNugget merchandise will also be available here.
