Join us as we take a pre-sale sneak peek at what the brand will be serving up for lucky customers at New Year.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Every year, brands around the nation release special \u201cfukubukuro<\/strong>\u201d (\u201clucky bags<\/strong>\u201c) to celebrate the arrival of a new year. Sometimes, big-name brands team up with each other to deliver twice the joy for customers, and that\u2019s what McDonald\u2019s<\/strong> is doing this year, with Japanese home furnishing and lifestyle brand Francfranc<\/strong> adding its signature design aesthetic to some well-known icons from the fast food chain.<\/p>\n

This is the first time for the two brands to join forces, and although the bag hasn\u2019t been released yet \u2013 applications are open now to enter the lottery to purchase one \u2013 we were lucky enough to receive a sample from the chain to give our readers an early sneak peek at what\u2019s inside.<\/p>\n

\u25bc So let\u2019s take a look at what\u2019s been created for the special lucky bag, which retails for 3,900 yen (US$25.07).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Customers will be happy to know they instantly make their money back with the coupons in the bag, which represent 3,910 yen in store value. That means everything else is a free bonus, including the \u201cBig Mac Soup Jar<\/strong>\u201c, which is cleverly shaped like a Big Mac.<\/p>\n

\u25bc Everything about this Francfranc x McDonald\u2019s product is absolutely adorable, from its burger-like appearance through to the seeds on top of the \u201cbun\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not only cute but also highly functional, with a generous 300-millilitre (10-ounce) capacity and the ability to keep drinks or soups hot or cold.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next up is the large insulated bag<\/strong>, one of which will be included in each fukubukuro, chosen at random. The colourways on offer are \u201cpink x red<\/strong>\u201c, \u201cyellow x purple<\/strong>\u201c, and \u201cblue x yellow<\/strong>\u201c.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The pastel colours are reminiscent of Francfranc, and the design is great as it\u2019s not too flashy, but not too subdued either. What\u2019s more, the bag has a very wide gusset so you can carry up to three two-litre plastic bottles.<\/p>\n

\u25bc Perfect for everyday shopping and cherry blossom-viewing picnics.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nFinally, we have a hand towel<\/strong>, one of which will be included at random in each lucky bag. Just like the insulated bags, the hand towels come in pastel colourways, with \u201cpink x red<\/strong>\u201c, \u201cyellow x purple<\/strong>\u201c, \u201cblue x yellow<\/strong>\u201c, and \u201cpurple x blue<\/strong>\u201d being the possible options.<\/p>\n

\u25bc Despite the different colours, each towel has the same design, featuring familiar characters like Grimace<\/strong>, Hamburglar<\/strong>, Birdie<\/strong>, and Fry Friends<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25bc The towels feel smooth and comfortable on the skin.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Francfranc collaboration has really helped to elevate the offerings from McDonald\u2019s this year, and is a nice follow-up to the impressive Beams Japan collaboration we enjoyed last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As always, the bag is set to be in high demand, so to be in with a chance to purchase one, you\u2019ll want to enter the lottery now, using the McDonald\u2019s Japan smartphone app, before the application period ends at 11:59 p.m. on 9 December. Results will be announced via the app on 16 December at 2:00 p.m., with winners required to make their purchase between 8:00 a.m. on 1 January, 2026 until the closing time of the selected store on 9 January (until 4:59 a.m. the following day for 24-hour stores).<\/p>\n

If you were unsuccessful in last year\u2019s lottery for the 2025 lucky bag and apply using the same account, McDonald\u2019s will give you one additional free entry to help increase your chances of winning this time around. In addition, if you apply by selecting \u201cPay by Mobile Order\u201d you\u2019ll receive another free entry so you can potentially submit three applications, increasing your chances even further.<\/p>\n

With the included merch limited only to this particular lucky bag, this is a lottery that lovers of Francfranc and McDonald\u2019s won\u2019t want to miss, so fingers crossed for your entries!<\/p>\n
