This is a thread dedicated to posting pix and talking about cereals that are made after cartoons and movies or tv shows that have pop culture appeal. Anything goes from Mr. T and Pac-Man to C-3PO's. LOL!



Mr. T Cereal




C-3PO's



Ghostbusters



Pac-Man



Nintendo Cereal System

These are just some of the more obscure cereals made after 'it' celebrities of the moment. It must've been an 80's thing. Otherwise we'd have Paris Hilton cereal right now in the shapes of cell phones and marshmallow diamonds. :roll:

    Loved all those! :D

    I forgot about Ghostbusters cereal, though. I also remember Donkey Kong and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Cereal! 8)

    Cereal- Yet ANOTHER thing that they just don't make like they used to. :cry:

      You said it!! I definitely remember Ghostbuster's cereal; that was gooooood!!! Certainly no more healthier than the crap they put on the shelves now, but at least it tasted better!

        I had forgetten all about Ghostbuster cereal! That stuff was great. I might have had some of the Nintendo cereal, but I'm not sure. I definitely had a box of Urkel O's though.


        Still have the campaign button and box somewhere I think.

            Urkel had a cereal? The name sounds familiar, but it might be a far distant memory of mine :(

            I did find these, though...enjoy!

              Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

              If there is a heaven, I want to be welcomed by Mayor Mcheese pouring me a bowl of Urkel-O's while I watch old re-runs of Small Wonder and Out of this World, while Men without Hat's "The Saftey Dance" plays in the lobby! :P

              That's my gold, at the end of the rainbow, baby! 8)

                      oh, yeah :) Batman cereal was pretty good, too, even though it hurt the roof of my mouth like Cap'n Crunch.

                            Hey I have that Batman bank. We keep dimes in it. Didn't know it came from the cereal though.


                            I have a Donatello bowl like that. Pretty much the only bowl I eat out of these days.

                              mmm...I remember Ninja Turtles cereal :) Good stuff!

                              I am officially mourning the loss of these great cereals, and giving sneers to all the crap they put on the shelves now.

                                I still really love Fruity Pebbles. I haven't had anything with marshmallows in it in quite some time though. Next time I take a trip to Winco I shall grab a bag of the Malt-o-Meal equivalent of lucky charms methinks.

                                I think my all-time favorite cereal as a kid was Frankenberry. I'm pretty sure it largely had to do with the infrequency of actually getting Frankenberry though.

                                I always wanted to try the Good Guy cereal from the Child's Play movie when I was a kid. I can't remember what it looked like now, and I can't find a pic. But I remember it looking pretty damn tasty.

                                    Second! Whoever came up with the idea of fruit-shaped Trix needs to get fired.

                                        Oh, and please don't waste your money with Frankenberry or Count Chocula. I got a box of each when I saw them on sale at Save A Lot last month...I was thrilled and excited :) Then when I got home I poured a big bowl of CC, took one bite...I was very dissapointed. It didn't even taste like chocolate, it tasted like cardboard! Even the marshmallows were bland! So I decided to pour a big bowl of Frankenberry...same deal. Tasted awful, like licking the inside of a Skittles wrapper. All that good milk gone to waste :( I ended up taking the rest of the cereals and feeding it to the seagulls at the beach.
