Tom Today is April 1st and I can assure you that this is no joke. Minecraft movie adult meals and Happy Meals have arrived at McDonald’s Canada!
We first reported on the new McDonald’s Canada x Minecraft collaboration on March 20th, then again on March 21st when more details were officially revealed.
Fast forward to today and you can now find all the glory that is the Minecraft movie meals at McDonald’s Canada available in all locations Canada wide!
Even if you’re not big into movies, you’ve probably noticed a huge increase in Minecraft products and advertising in recent weeks. This is because a new Minecraft movie is coming out on April 4th.
The new movie is one of this years first huge blockbuster films to be released and stars Jack Black, Jason Momoa and others.
McDonald’s Canada often collaborates with big new films, especially if it’s geared towards families because it allows them to easily tie into their popular Happy Meal kids meals, and other partnership opportunities.
This new collaborations comes with not only Minecraft movie Happy Meals (complete with 12 cool new Happy Meal toys), but also adult Minecraft movie meals which are basically grown up Happy Meals, except featuring regular combo items like the Big Mac, Chicken McNuggets, and the new McSpicy.
The biggest draw will be the 6 Minecraft movie x McDonald’s collectibles from the adult meals that feature blocky versions of iconic McDonald’s characters and foods.
I visited today and got the Big Mac Crystal and Fry Helmet with my 2 lunch meals. I’ll have to go back to try to get the full set which includes Birdie Wings, Soda Potion, Grimace Egg, and Zombie Hamburglar.
The adult meals come in big golden Minecraft movie boxes which are basically bigger versions of the iconic Happy Meal box. Inside it contain your food items, the packaging of which is also Minecraft themed. If you go with the Chicken McNuggets, you can try the new Nether Flame sauce which has a nice and spicy kick to it.
The kids Happy Meals come in fun Creeper themed boxes and contain one of twelve new Minecraft movie Happy Meal toys.
Overall I give this new collaboration a 9 out of 10 because my whole family loves Minecraft, and everything just looks very cool. While the new dipping sauce is tasty, and the new Apple Shake is good, I would’ve loved if we had gotten a new food item along with it. Some block shaped foods would’ve been nice!
Make sure to stop by soon if you want to get one of the collectibles or Happy Meal toys because these are only here while supplies last.
