We’ve been crying out for a UK Stranger Things Happy meal for so long now especially after KFC absolutely ruined that particular release with the most bland promotion I’ve seen in the UK with a fast food collab.
Well, sadly once again the UK will miss out of a Stranger Things Happy Meal yet most of the rest of the world will get this one as a Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 is on its way globally with the U.S launch set for May 5th.
Jokes on them though however as I will be travelling around Europe in May so I’ll make sure to at least scoop up one of these on my travels!
The “Stranger Things: Tales From ’85” Happy Meal in collaboration with Netflix includes:
- A custom Stranger Things: Tales From ’85-inspired Happy Meal box
- One of 12 (depending on market) collectible character toys
- A Stranger Things activity book
- A QR code that unlocks a digital experience and interactive game where fans help save Hawkins (and McDonald’s) from the monsters
“Stranger Things: Tales From ’85” returns to the iconic world of Hawkins, Indiana, as the gang fights new monsters and unravels paranormal mysteries – with the same heightened stakes and ’80s nostalgia that made the original series a global phenomenon. The collaboration leans into the shared DNA of the two brands: childhood adventure and ’80s iconography. For Netflix, McDonald’s isn’t just a partner—it’s a cornerstone of the era the show celebrates.
“Stranger Things: Tales From ’85” arrives on Netflix today, April 23.
