McDonald’s is Bringing Back The Adult Happy Meals That Come With McNugget Buddies Toys

If you were a kid in the late 80s or early 90s you likely remember the joy it was to get a Happy Meal complete with a McNugget Buddy toy.

Well, it’s time to be a kid again because not only is McDonald’s bringing back the McNugget Buddies, they are bringing them back in a McDonald’s Adult Happy Meal!!

The new McDonald’s Happy Meal is officially named the Kerwin Frost Box and is a one-of-a-kind global collaboration with artist and lifelong McDonald’s fan, Kerwin Frost.

The Kerwin Frost Box includes the choice of 10-piece Chicken McNuggets^® or a Big Mac^®, World Famous Fries^®, a soft drink and a special McNugget Buddy collectible!

Each box will contain 1 of 6 different McNugget Buddies toys including:

• Kerwin Frost – The Mayor of Frost Way is a true champion of the Buddies and encourages them to be themselves. In his free time, catch him adding art to his collection or fixing things around the neighborhood.
• Don Bernice – The Wise Stylist, an experienced fashion designer who creates all the outfits for the Buddies in Frost Way, while also offering stern advice (that’s always nice!). After all, she is “don” – the very best!
• Uptown Moe – The Neighborhood Hero, the no-nonsense, street-smart, supportive guy from around the block in Frost Way everyone knows and loves. He also gives the best motivational speeches on a whim.
• Waffutu – The Curious Optimist, who grew up in Frost Way and was raised by the whole neighborhood. She spreads positivity wherever she goes and can turn any frown upside down with the wave of a wand and tilt of a crown.
• BRRRICK – The Cool Guy, the most adventurous Buddy in Frost Way who speaks in puns, loves trying new things and techno music. He’s lowkey nervous, but always cool under pressure.
• Darla – The Dreamer, a soft-spoken yet peacefully confident singer who moved to Frost Way to pursue her dream of becoming a superstar as the lead singer of “The Frostettos.” When she’s not on stage, she’s running the local McDonald’s in Frost Way – where she’s employee of the month every month!

Ahhh I cannot wait to get my hands on these!

Now, if you didn’t remember, last year, McDonald’s brought back the Adult Happy Meals and they were so popular, they were removed from menu’s way earlier than planned.

So, I think it’s safe to say, this year, will be no different.

“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 Kerwin Frost Box aka the new adult happy meal is launching in the U.S. and other select markets around the world starting Dec. 11, 2023 while supplies last.

So, mark your calendars and be there early so you don’t miss out on this collab!
