Early birds catch the worm

Lianhe Zaobao was on the scene in the wee hours of the morning to document the My Melody craze sweeping Singapore.

MS News understands queue tickets were issued, to mitigate queue cutting and disputes. Guess we’ve learnt a lot from the insane Hello Kitty queues of the 90s.

Bringing joy to all

We’re just glad that McDonald’s has once again given Singaporeans something to look forward to.

McDonald’s Japan has also low-key released a Shinkansen Holder, albeit to lesser fanfare.

We think it’s uber cute nonetheless.

Getting everyone out in droves to queue for something is truly our national pastime after all.

So, what Sanrio character is next on your bucket list?
