When you think of McDonald's what comes to mind first? While it might be the Big Mac or their French Fries, for a lot of us, it is also the toys and gifts. After all, the Happy Meal is something that a lot of us grew up with.
That Happy Meal was as much about the meal as it was the toy inside. And McDonald's understands our love for these small treats. In fact, they have gone so far as to offer adult meals with a gift included, and they always garner attention on social media.
So it likely comes as no surprise that McDonald's has decided to reward all of us who love the toys and collectibles of days gone by. On August 7, McDonald's announced that they would be offering a Collector's Meal that will feature six different cups inspired by those past collectibles and toys.

Each cup will feature designs inspired by fan favorites from the past. So what designs do we have in store for us? The fandoms represented are as follows:
- The Beanie Babies
- McDonald's (Their collection of characters are iconic in their own right)
- Barbie & Hot Wheels
- Coca-Cola
- Hello Kitty & Peanuts
- Minions, Jurassic Park, & Shrek
The idea is that different eras of collectibles will be represented with their own cup. And for the first time ever, the Collector's Meal will actually be available all day, including breakfast. Each of the meals will come with one cup, which we expected. But what are the meals that are part of this offer?

The choice of a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets or Big Mac Sandwich with our World Famous Fries and a drink throughout the rest of the day."
If you want the chance to collect all of these amazing cups, the Collector's Meal will officially be available starting on August 13.
