McDonald's is bringing back a blast from the past with their new "Kerwin Frost Box" meal, featuring the iconic McNugget Buddies. These collector's items, shaped like chicken nuggets, were first introduced over 25 years ago as part of Happy Meals. Designed in collaboration with New York-based artist Kerwin Frost, the box and the McNugget Buddies aim to evoke feelings of nostalgia. McDonald's USA Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer Tariq Hassan expressed excitement about the partnership, stating that they wanted to recreate the joy of opening a Happy Meal box
Frost, who has fond memories of McDonald's from his childhood, was thrilled to bring his own special set of Buddies to life. The McNugget Buddies, known for their wacky adventures and interchangeable outfits, will be available starting December 11th. Customers can choose between a 10-piece Chicken McNugget or Big Mac, along with friends and a soft drink, as part of the Kerwin Frost Box Meal. McDonald's hopes that this collaboration will immerse fans in the world of Frost Way and reignite their love for the beloved McNugget Buddies.
