McDonald's Happy Meals have long been a beloved staple for children and collectors alike, but in an era where brand collaborations drive engagement, there is a growing need for fresh, limited-edition experiences that resonate with both younger audiences and nostalgic consumers. While McDonald’s has successfully collaborated with various brands in the past, there is an opportunity to introduce a partnership that seamlessly blends iconic childhood nostalgia with the excitement of collectible toys.

About These Brands

Brand Values

Sanrio: A Japanese entertainment company known for its endearing characters that inspire love, friendship, and positivity.

McDonald’s: One of the world’s most recognized fast-food chains, celebrated for its affordability, convenience, and family-friendly dining experiences.



Sanrio: Through heartwarming tales, Hello Kitty and her friends foster values of friendship, kindness, generosity, and family bonding.

McDonald’s: The Happy Meal embodies affordability, fun, and engagement, creating memorable moments for children and families by combining delicious meals with playful, collectible toys.


By bringing together the nostalgic appeal of Sanrio with the cherished tradition of McDonald’s Happy Meals, this collaboration aims to deliver smiles, spark joy, and strengthen family connections.



Happy Meal Concept

The Happy Meal box is the visual centerpiece of this concept. I kept McDonald’s iconic red box for its instant recognition, pairing it with Hello Kitty’s signature red bow. To balance the bold red, I added Sanrio’s soft pastel palette on the remaining panels, showcasing other characters. Together, the colors create a playful blend that honors both brands and delivers a charming, eye-catching experience.

Drink Concept

Cinnamoroll has been one of the most beloved Sanrio characters, securing first place in the Sanrio Character Rankings for five consecutive years. His cheerful and charming personality makes him a perfect addition to the Happy Meal collaboration. With his soft blue and cool-toned color palette, I thought he would be a great fit for the drink design, bringing a refreshing touch to the concept.

Fries Concept

Kuromi is a beloved character known for her complex personality and stubborn yet endearing exterior. For the fries packaging, I aimed to create a simple design that complements both the food item and the minimalistic style of the Happy Meal packaging.

Nuggets

Pochacco is an incredibly lovable character, and I wanted to ensure he was included in the meal concept. Though he is sometimes overlooked within the Hello Kitty and Friends branch, he remains a fan favorite, cherished both in the USA and around the world.
