McDonald’s introduces nostalgic mini-radio toys

McDonald’s is reintroducing mini-radios as promotional items in participating restaurants from October 28 to November 24, 2026. The small music toys, which play 30-second clips of popular songs, are available for an additional charge with specific menu items such as the McMenu, Breakfast Duo Grande, or McCafé Duo Grande.

Five different colored models are being released, each featuring a different song:

• Green: “Sk8er Boi” by Avril Lavigne • Red: “Toxic” by Britney Spears • Black: “Sorry” by Justin Bieber • White: “Traum” by Cro • Pink: “I Kissed a Girl” by Katy Perry

The devices include a QR code that links to a quiz within the McDonald’s app. Users who correctly answer questions about the artists can enter for a chance to win retro merchandise.
