Eight special toys will be available at participating US locations, showcasing unique pairings of Sanrio's most popular mascots with Godzilla's most recognizable creatures. The full lineup includes:

- Hello Kitty x Godzilla

- My Melody x Mothra

- Kuromi x Mechagodzilla

- Keroppi x King Ghidorah

- Badz-Maru x Rodan

- Cinnamoroll x Destoroyah

- Chococat x Spacegodzilla

- Pompompurin x Gigan

Fans of both Sanrio and Godzilla are eagerly anticipating this crossover, with many expressing delight at the inclusion of lesser-seen characters like Chococat and Badz-Maru. However, concerns about scalpers potentially disrupting the release have also surfaced, given past instances of exclusive Happy Meal items being resold at inflated prices.

This marks the latest in a series of unusual partnerships for McDonald's and Hello Kitty, which previously teamed up with Yu-Gi-Oh! for a unique Belgian release in 2024. With the Godzilla collaboration set to bring a touch of kaiju fun to Happy Meals this August, fans are eagerly counting down the days until these adorable and terrifying toys become available.
