“Star Wars has shaped generations of fans, and as we head into the release of Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, we saw an opportunity to bring that excitement straight into our restaurants,” Joel Yashinsky, Chief Marketing Officer of Burger King U.S. & Canada, said in a press statement.
The themed packaging includes four collectible themed cups, a Mandalorian helmet-shaped carton, a Grogu-themed carton, and an Imperial-themed carton. Additionally, Burger King’s iconic crown has been reimagined to feature the Mandalorian’s helmet in its design.
In terms of menu items, the lineup includes the BBQ Bounty Whopper, a quarter-pound patty paired with swiss cheese, pickle chips, and BBQ sauce.
There are also two Grogu-inspired dishes, a Blue Cookie Shake made up of soft serve and blue cookie syrup, andGarlic Chicken Fries, white-meat chicken fries seasoned with garlic and parmesan cheese with a side of garlic sauce.
Lastly, Imperial-themed Cheddar Ranch Tots feature cheese and potato-stuffed bites paired with ranch seasoning.
