Who didn’t love the General Mills Monster Cereals growing up — Count Chocula, FrankenBerry and my favorite, Boo Berry.

I just stumbled across these excellent Kubrick figurines of all the main monsters.

Doing a bit of research, it turns out there were two more later additions to the lineup. Do you know them? First was the Wolfman-themed Fruit Brute, which was re-issued as Yummy Mummy. I guess neither did very well on the grocery store shelves.

I was totally hooked on these as a kid, being a huge monster fan. Have not eaten them for many years as I really don’t eat sugar-coated cereal much anymore.

And just as cool as the figurines are the excellent mini cereal box blister packs.

These kid-proportioned, wooden action figures of Spiderman & The Hulk are just plain awesome. And the Captain America & Wolverine set is pretty cool as well. I’m a Spidey guy, so I might be biased here.

Made by Learning Curve under the Playtown brand. Get Spidey & Hulk, or Capt. America & Wolverine at Amazon now!
