McDonald's Japan will have a special collaboration with Mobile Suit Gundam's Char Aznable. Exclusive meals and drinks modeled after the mecha anime show will appear in Japanese outlets for a limited time starting from June 22, 2022.
The new tie-up will introduce two new meals inspired by Mobile Suit Gundam. The Red Garlic Teriyaki burger will place pork patty and smoked bacon in red garlic buns. The Newtype White Triple Cheeseburger, modeled after the "White Devil" Gundam, will have creamy white cheddar cheese separate the beef patties.
The Double Cheeseburger Sausage Muffin and the Spicy Double Cheeseburger, which had appeared on previous occasions, will also re-appear on the Japanese menus at the same time.
The collaboration will also feature McFizz and McFloat drinks with a Red Energy flavor that combines honey with guarana seeds. The staff will pour these drinks into cups that feature either Char Aznable's Zaku II or Z'Gok.
The Japanese McDonald's YouTube channel has also uploaded new commercial videos featuring the tie-up with Char Aznable. The Spicy Double Cheeseburger, Red Garlic Teriyaki, and the Newtype Triple Cheeseburger each has its own 15-second video. There is also a 30-second trailer where Char shows all three meals in the same video.
