The result is an incredible collection of partnerships that revived classic logos, packaging, and even products that feel pulled right from 1987. For partner brands that did not exist in 1987, the campaigns honored the legacy of the series and gave fans fun ways to join in the series’ mysterious adventure:

• Doritos: Doritos and Netflix partnered across multiple markets, including an ’80s-style US Telethon for Hawkins campaign starring icons from the decade, alongside retro packaging of the special edition Doritos Collisions Stranger Pizza x Cool Ranch chips, Stranger Things packaging across Doritos and Minis flavors and a limited edition Doritos Minis flavor.
  • In the UK, 80s icon Anneka Rice fronted a segment on British morning TV ‘Doritos Chip in for Hawkins’, alongside limited edition themed packs and Doritos Black Garlic Dip. In Spain, the campaign advertised the Doritos Collisions pack, with the catchy slogan “Crispier, More Dangerous”.
