You Have To Hear About This McDonald's x Kerwin Frost Collab

Have You Heard?

The upcoming collaboration between Kerwin Frost and McDonald's, set to release on December 11th, 2023, is creating quite a buzz in the fast-food industry. This unique partnership introduces the "Kerwin Frost Box," a special offering that reflects the vibrant and eclectic style of Frost, a multifaceted artist and DJ known for his creative flair.

What's In The Box?

Available in the U.S. and select global markets, the box gives customers a choice between a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets or a Big Mac, accompanied by fries, a soft drink, and a special McNugget Buddy collectible. This marks the first reintroduction of the McNugget Buddy collection at McDonald's in over 25 years. The collectibles, designed by Frost, draw inspiration from his childhood in Harlem, New York, and each figurine embodies different aspects of self-expression and creativity. The collection features characters like Don Bernice, Uptown Moe, Waffutu, Brrrick, and Darla, all representing diverse facets of Frost’s imaginative world.

The Backstory

This collaboration follows the success of last year's Cactus Plant Flea Market Box, which saw a significant increase in McDonald’s traffic. The Kerwin Frost Box aims to replicate this success, tapping into the nostalgia of the McNugget Buddies, first introduced in 1988. Frost's personal connection with McDonald’s, stemming from his childhood fascination with the brand and its iconic characters, infuses this collaboration with authenticity and passion.

But Wait...There's More

In addition to the meal, McDonald’s and Kerwin Frost are launching a merchandise line, including items from the McNugget Buddy collection and vintage pieces from Frost’s archive. This line will also feature a new footwear silhouette – the Fry Guy shoes, as seen on the Kerwin Frost McNugget Buddy. A portion of the proceeds from this merchandise line will support the Harlem Arts Alliance, a nonprofit organization that fosters emerging and established artists in New York.

The Kerwin Frost Box and the accompanying merchandise line will be available starting December 11th at participating McDonald’s restaurants and on kerwinfrost.com. This collaboration offers a unique dining experience and supports a creative cause, making it a must-have for fans of McDonald’s and Kerwin Frost alike.
