The characters from the animated series *SpongeBob SquarePants* will be given the looks of characters from the pirate manga and anime. Twelve figures have been announced for New Zealand, and ten for Australia.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<p><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>McDonald\u2019s has announced a SpongeBob \u00d7 One Piece collaboration for the Happy Meal.<\/li>\n<li>The New Zealand collection comprises 12 figurines.<\/li>\n<li>The Australian trailer currently features ten characters.<\/li>\n<li>The launch of the campaign in both countries is listed as \u00abcoming soon\u00bb.<\/li>\n<li>McDonald\u2019s Ukraine has not announced a local launch of the range.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The characters from Bikini Bottom dressed as pirates<\/h2>\n<p>The concept behind the series is based on bringing together characters from the two franchises. SpongeBob will appear wearing a straw hat and Luffy\u2019s outfit, Patrick will be dressed as Zoro with swords, and Squidward will be dressed as Sanji. A separate SpongeBob figure, modelled on Luffy\u2019s Gear 5, will also be released.<\/p>\n<p>On the official page <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/suspilstvo\/mcdonalds-happy-meal-liudyna-pavuk\/\">McDonald's<\/a> New Zealand is represented by 12 characters. This format may appeal not only to children but also to collectors: according to the franchise\u2019s official website, the worldwide circulation of the One Piece manga exceeded 600 million copies in March.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>SpongeBob \u00d7 Luffy and SpongeBob \u00d7 Luffy Gear 5<\/li>\n<li>Patrick \u00d7 Zoro, Sandy \u00d7 Nami and Squidward \u00d7 Sanji<\/li>\n<li>Plankton \u00d7 Usopp, Gary \u00d7 Chopper and Pearl \u00d7 Robin<\/li>\n<li>Larry \u00d7 Frankie, Mrs Puff \u00d7 Linlin, The Flying Dutchman \u00d7 Tich and Mr Krabs \u00d7 Jimbei<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>The content will depend on the market<\/h2>\n<p>The Australian Toy Zone website has also posted a \u00abComing soon\u00bb announcement, but it shows ten figures. Among those missing from this set are Larry \u00d7 Frankie and Sandy \u00d7 Nami. This suggests that the contents of the series may vary from country to country.<\/p>\n<p>In every <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/lifestyle\/kartoplia-po-seliansky-mcdonalds-kyiv\/\">Happy Meal<\/a> You will be able to receive one toy or book. The offer will be valid for a limited time at participating restaurants, whilst stocks last. McDonald\u2019s traditionally releases toys in series, so the availability of specific characters may depend on the promotion period.<\/p>\n<p>The company has not yet announced a specific launch date for Australia and New Zealand. As of 29 July, there is no local announcement or details of this collection on the official McDonald\u2019s Ukraine website.<\/p>\n<h2>A licensed crossover between two franchises<\/h2>\n<p>The Australian promotional material features the logos of the copyright holders of *One Piece* and *SpongeBob SquarePants*. The combination of recognisable characters from Bikini Bottom with members of Luffy\u2019s crew is part of a licensed promotional campaign, not a fan-made series.<\/p>\n<p>McDonald\u2019s has not yet announced a global launch. Consequently, the announcements for Australia and New Zealand do not mean that the toys will automatically be available in the US, Europe or Ukraine.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>McDonald\u2019s has announced a SpongeBob \u00d7 One Piece collaboration for the Happy Meal.
