Oh well, I thought I was able to eat my char kway teow today until a friend of mine buzzed me to help her queue for the McDonald’s SG50 Hello Kitty Limited Edition McDonald’s Crew.
My first thought was “ok… not another Hello Kitty Craze….” So I went to a nearby McDonald’s and upon my inquiry was told by the staff to queue at a special designated queue. This queue is purely for purchasing the SG50 Hello Kitty Limited Edition McDonald’s Crew while the normal queue still sells the current release which is the SG50 Parade Kitty.
I got a feeling this limited edition version was specially released on Thursday 6th of August just before Singapore’s 50th birthday on the 9th of August, as the usual release date is on a Monday and we have two different kitties this week. Each person is able to get up to a maximum of four (one extra value meal allows you to buy one).
Once back home, I unboxed the Hello Kitty and put it into my favourite vintage mug for that sense of suspense. It seems to say “Can you guess which outfit I am in?”
I am looking forward to getting the “Samsui Woman” which will be the last in the series. Samsui Woman as we all can remember is synonymous to nation building. They toiled under the hot sun and helped to build Singapore brick by brick and I feel it is a nice touch to dedicate this to them.
