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?
