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!
Some of the magents came as cereal premiums ( I don't know what cereal though) but they also sold in 5 & 10 stores on a metal counter displays like this one. The larger 3 in the bottom left side are not premiums nor are the smaller spiderman magnets at the bottom.
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?
I remember in 71 Captain crunch had a willy wonka promo it was a boat model kit that you put together and it work!It was really intricate.
and Quisk and quake I think had the wacky racer cars that you put together.

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.
