tms joined forces with McDonald's and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products for the MultiVersus Happy Meal®! 🦸♀️💥 For a limited time, fans were able to head to participating McDonald’s restaurants to order the MultiVersus Happy Meal® – based on MultiVersus, the newly launched free-to-play video game that brings together an all-star cast of iconic Warner Bros. Discovery characters. With every Happy Meal®, fans received one of six double-sided toy tins featuring a duo of characters like Batman and Shaggy made from more sustainable aluminum materials. Fans could also access the McDonald’s MultiVersus digital experience, where they embarked on an interactive adventure and took quizzes that unveiled the dynamic duos. “The MultiVersus Happy Meal® promotion was a great learning curve to create more sustainable toys where we could blend nostalgia with pure fun through beloved characters. A joy for parents and kids alike,” said Hannah Nallappane, Product Manager at tms. ⚡️ Learn more about tms' involvement, including the more sustainable toys we designed and sourced: https://lnkd.in/gRXTXtmU #McDonalds #WarnerBrosDiscovery #MultiVersus
