Post Malone has hit a roadblock in his partnership with Raising Cane’s, the fast-food restaurant chain specializing in chicken fingers, following the theft of some limited edition merch.

Drawing inspiration from Posty’s tattoos and iconic stage presence, the cups are designed to be a four-part collection and exclusively come with the “Post-Up” combo meal. The value listed for all the stolen items was just over $6,233.
