Cool shit for Carl's Jr. Or Hardee's, depending where you're from. I would design a completely new merch collection. Starting off strong with the tier nugget pillow, a fan favorite, and it comes in a jumbo nugget box. The star bikini. This graphic hoodie that says you're a star. French fries, no. Pencil holder, a jumbo pool floatie, swim shorts, this retro tee with a star illustration on the back, a trucker hat, star worst it notes, another trucker hat, a plush of the logo, the full Carl's Jr collection, and an alt colorway for Hardee's. Let me know what brand I should do next.
