McDonald’s Japan Launches New Pompompurin Happy Meals

A new toy campaign has launched at McDonald’s locations across Japan featuring characters from two major entertainment franchises.
The latest “Happy Set” lineup includes merchandise based on the comedy anime Crayon Shin-chan and the Sanrio character Pompompurin.

This campaign is divided into three separate release waves, offering a total of six different toys for each franchise.
The Crayon Shin-chan toys focus on action gimmicks and designs that integrate McDonald’s motifs with the show’s cast, including the superhero Quantum Robo.


The Pompompurin collection focuses on practical items that can be used as stationery or small storage containers, featuring the Golden Retriever character in various cute poses.


The toys are distributed randomly in blind bags, meaning customers cannot choose which specific design they receive.
