Speaking of fast food, Carl’s Jr. and Hardees are leaning into nostalgia with new Adult Swim toys (for grownups) in their combo meals. YPulse told you how #AdultSwim content took over TikTok this summer, paying homage to Cartoon Network’s popular “bumps” from the ‘00s. Carl’s Jr. and Hardees are leveraging the trend, bringing mystery Adult Swim specialty toys like Space Ghost and Meatwad figurines to their combo meals (toys come in a blind pack so diners won’t know what figurine they get until they open the toy). To top off the meal, an Adult Swim-themed cup is also available as part of the mashup lasting until November 7. This may be the first time that toys are given away with adult fast food meals, but YPulse’s Playtime research on how much Millennials still love toys indicates that more should follow suit. (Ad Age)
