Can You Collect Them All? McDonald’s Introduces Four Glow-in-the-Dark Grimace Buds


MANILA, Philippines – There’s a new reason to get excited about your next McDo visit, especially if you love collecting cute and exclusive finds!

After the successful release of its limited-edition McDo Denim Jacket, which saw 90% of stocks claimed within just 24 hours, McDonald’s Philippines is bringing fans another collectible to look forward to through its MyMcDonald’s Rewards program.


Meet the Grimace Glow-in-the-Dark Buds, a set of miniature figurines featuring everyone's favorite purple character, Grimace. These little collectibles come with a fun surprise, making them a must-have for longtime fans, collectors, and anyone who enjoys a little something extra with their McDonald's favorites.


Four Grimace Buds to Find


Starting November 12, fans can redeem each Grimace Bud for just 25 MyMcDonald’s Rewards points plus ₱199 cashthrough the McDonald’s App at participating McDonald’s stores nationwide.


There are four designs to collect:

  • Peeking Grimace
  • Giggling Grimace
  • Welcoming Grimace
  • One secret design!


Each figurine comes in a surprise blind box, so you won't know which design you'll get until you open it. That makes every unboxing a little more exciting, especially for those hoping to complete all four designs.


Got a duplicate? No worries. McDonald's stores nationwide will have designated

Grimace Buds Trading Corners, where collectors can meet and exchange figurines with fellow fans. Whether you're searching for that one missing design or helping someone else complete their set, there's room for everyone in this purple collecting craze.


They Glow, Too!


These Grimace Buds aren't just adorable display pieces. Each figurine has a glow-in-the-dark feature that comes to life after being exposed to a light source for a few minutes.

And the packaging has its own little surprise. Every pack can be transformed into Grimace Island, a miniature setting where you can display your newly collected purple buddies.

It's a collectible that goes beyond the usual unboxing experience, giving fans another creative way to enjoy their Grimace Buds.






More Rewards, More Reasons to Collect


McDonald's Philippines continues to find new ways to make its MyMcDonald's Rewards program more exciting, from the popular Grimace Tumbler to the recently released McDo Denim Jacket.


The strong response to these merchandise releases shows just how much fans enjoy having something special to look forward to beyond their favorite meals.


“Seeing 90% of our limited-edition Denim Jacket stocks claimed in just 24 hours showed us how passionate our McDonald’s fans truly are. Their enthusiasm continues to inspire us to create more exciting and exclusive experiences through MyMcDonald’s Rewards. With the Grimace Glow-in-the-Dark Buds, we’re giving fans another way to celebrate their love for Grimace, while making their everyday McDonald’s visits even more rewarding,” said Katrina Lee-Chua, Assistant Vice President for Strategy & Insights and Digital of McDonald’s Philippines.
