    Gotta be anything Freakies! The statues were a big hit with me as well as the boats and cars. To me the Freakie Statues were best because I could carry them in my pocket and play with them anywhere I went. This is before the 3 3/4 sized Action figures came out.

    The Quisp Moon walker has a great deal of sentimental value for me as well. The Super Sugar Crisp Terrariums were fantastic too!

    I remember making the mistake of trying that thing in the tub and getting baking soda in my bath water!

    The Search for Atlantis ones came out a few years ago. I brought them to school. They were OK, but didn't work as well as the old ones.

    My favorite cereal premium is a Monster in my Pocket Werewolf figure I got from Shredded Wheat.

    Was that ha(d) or ha(ve)? If you still have them I would be interested in taking a half million of them off of your hands.

    Guys, all I remember is getting the Hulk out of a cereal box and wanting Spiderman but never getting another box. So they must have been short run.

    This is the only picture I could find on the net for these...but...the guy who had them listed (who is a HUGE vintage Marvel collector) remembers them being a cereal premium as well.

    Hey, It was worth a shot at least. Surely, some one here will know what cereal they came from. Anyone?

    p.s. I did not mean to call you surely either.

    Loved the monster busts, and the glow posters.
    Those were the first ones to come to mind.

    I did also enjoy the ballon cars, and terrrariums.
    Anyone remember the baking soda submarines?

    I also remember loving some 3-D puzzle kind of prizes.
    They were all on a sprue like a model kit and you took the pieces off and could put them together to make some kind of figure or something. The details are vague in my mind, though I can picture it in my head.

    I think one that got the most use when I wes really young was a prize from Cherios. It was like a plastic pipe with a piece of string tied in a loop. You blew in the mouth piece and the string would rotate through the other end.
    I played with it so much that I wore the string out in a couple weeks. Which lead me to keep trying larger and larger pieces of string in it.

    I had the Captain America, but can't remember where he came from.
