Everyone is hungry for a little nostalgia, why not get a meal with it? McDonald’s next big thing is the Collector’s Meal, which is your classic McDonald’s meal along with a glass cup featuring artwork of iconic moments in Happy Meal history.

Each cup features a different theme representing iconic McDonald’s toys throughout the years, including Barbie and Hot Wheels, Beanie Babies, Coca-Cola, Hello Kitty and Peanuts, movies like Shrek and Jurassic Park, and McDonald’s classics like Funny Fry Friends, Boo Buckets, and the Grimace Glass. Fans can get more information on their glasses by scanning the cups on Snapchat or by visiting McDonald’s Snapchat profile.

The Collector’s Meal is available all day long starting Aug. 13. In the morning, fans can pick up a cup with a Sausage McMuffin with Egg sandwich, hash brown, and hot coffee. For the rest of the day, the cup comes with a purchase of a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets or Big Mac meal. 

On Aug. 17 from 11 a.m.-7 p.m. PT at Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles, fans can show up with one of the six cups to get access to the Collector’s Club Poolside Paradise, which will feature limited-edition drinks inspired by the new cups. Fans can reserve a spot for general admission or a poolside cabana through Eventbrite starting today, Aug. 7. In New York, fans can bring their Collector’s Meal cups to Coney Island on Aug. 17 starting at noon ET to unlock a free ride on the Phoenix Roller Coaster in Deno’s Wonder Wheel Amusement Park. 

Whether you still have all of your classic Happy Meal toys or they have been lost to time, the Collector’s Meal cups are the perfect boost of the nostalgia factor.
