“In your Happy Meal today. Probably on eBay for $500 in a week. The limited edition collab Yu-Gi-Oh x Hello Kitty & Friends is finally here,” Guillaume Huin, the senior marketing director at McDonald’s, shared today as the Happy Meal went live.
“There are 9 exclusive plushes to collect from the Sanrio and Yu-Gi-Oh universe in the Happy Meal, starting 8.20. The Happy Meal toy collection will come in these lovely gift bags. Also, a program will also be showcased in a TV commercial that explains how the Yu-Gi-Oh and Hello Kitty and Friends ended up merging into a set of adorable Happy Meal toys. Last but not least, the iconic Happy Meal Apple Slices bag got a little refresher to match with the collaboration between Yu-Gi-Oh and Hello Kitty and Friends.”
From its box to its food packaging, the Happy Meal is perfect from top to bottom. There is no better crossover in anime these days than Yu-Gi-Oh x Hello Kitty. We know Sanrio must feel the heart of the cards. And if you want to check out what kind of plushes will be included in this meal deal, you can find them below:
- Hello Kitty x Dark Magician
- Cinnamoroll x Blue-Eyes White Dragon
- My Melody x Dark Magician Girl

Of course, this special Happy Meal is a limited time deal, and it can be found at participating locations as of today. Fans will want to get their hands on the deal ASAP because a collection this good doesn’t come around often. Before this, McDonald’s last drummed up buzz with its special Jujutsu Kaisen sauce collab. So clearly, the fast food giant is working through its anime watch list…!
