The Wild Animal Crunch needs MOAR JAGUAR.

Thanks for posting these...very interesting! I might have to go see if our local grocery store has them.

Hey, you're right! Seems like there's just a cameo so far.... maybe a 2nd generation of boxes is on the way to stores soon!

It's too bad we don't have any cereal mascots here! I think there are a few boxes with art on them, but I don't know anything specific. And definitely nothing famous. (I wish we had animated commercials!)

Ofcourse I had to buy this in the US (which proves box art works!):


And I also regocnised this fellow:

I've seen the design for this guy in the portfolio of Dutch artist Gerben Steenks: http://www.comichouse.nl/ne/illustration/2d/steenks/

I bet Karpour photographed some more boxes!

woohoooo! This is heapin' spoonfulls o' fun already!!... ^V^
That guy's stuff is rawrsome! (it's a tragically unfortunate name in translation though... eeeep!)
Thanks for posting some of yours here also.. and I'm stoked that you found lots of similar animated discoveries while you visited! :9

Apparently foxes are not tasty enough to be in cereal...

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

Well.. you've get yer wolf cousin the Fruit Brute.. *covers beak to conceal near uncontrollable burst of guffaws*...


... and then if ya want foxes, I think they did make the ranks at some point, but I never saw this in person.... :9
...*earfuzzles ya...*

I think I had Fruit Brute in the 70s but I'm not sure....

Crunch those wild animals!

Very cute designs indeedy ^^ Interesting to note that I used to work in a cereal factory during holidays at university, and one of the products I used to have to box was Cooooooooooooooooookie Crisp :3

I LOVES me a lot of cereal characters! It's not surprising that my theory growing up was always (and still is) that the animal on the box is representative of the results of consuming the cereal. Individual results may vary.

I saw this line of Looney Tunes groceries when we were in CA last month! Sadly, we don't yet have them in our Midwest market. I bought some Wile E. and Foghorn flavored snack bars with hopes of some level of physical results (no dice, unless it's a really delayed reaction).

Thanks for scanning and sharing! :D

o.O i need all those with sylvester!! althought.. some of the pics are totally off-model ^^;

[neocanis.livejournal.com]

Wow! That's a lot of cereal boxes, I wonder if the chocolate puffs is made by ACME as well (Watch out! the backfire chocolate puffs!!!). Thanks for sharing all of the wonderful photos. :D

To look at all of the interesting packages and to think all that cereals the boxes contained... cereal, the new balance meal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. ;P

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

Just a few Dunkaroos and you're good to go, I'll bet!

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

EXTRA crunchy if they boxed 'em with the bones! *scritches ye*

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

WOW!!... very cool-amazing coincidence! Did not even know it was marketed over there.... wooot! ^v^

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

oooo.. rilly? *rubs wings together like a pondering Wile E.*

Alas, I don't know of any friendly eagle cereals that have ever appeared.... maybe I'll haveta go for griffin... or duck... or kangaroo.. or cat... or.. so many choices!

As long as them mean kids aren't trying to horde my chosen cereal, like from that poor Trix bunny and the unlucky leprechaun, or the Crunchberry beast... or poor Sonny!

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

Yahoooooooo! *flaps* Glad ya like 'em! :D
Looks like that was good for at least three Sylvesters!

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

Good ta see ya peekin' around LJ, me friend!

Yep... they are a good balance of edibles and anthropomorphics!

and I'll be sure to approach any ACME cereal only while wearing a full suit of armor... thanks for the advice! :D

[neocanis.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the wonderful link, I love that wolf character. :D

[artemis1.livejournal.com]

Thanks, that was fun! I don't think I have seen any of those 'round here though.

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

Thanks for sharing, C! Seeing Pepe and Penelope on the one box of "Fruity Ringlets" was a pleasure =0)

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

ooo yes! I love those lovers! ^V^

Wild animal crunch sounds scary!!
Oddly enough we don't seem to have a lot of furry cereal pedlers, only the usual fruit loops, tony tiger and that irritating cocopops monkey.

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

but you're a wild cat... I'd think you'd love it ;D

..and yeah, I don't want any monkeys around when I'm trying to eat my cereal, but I guess ah could tolerate a cocoa puffs bird for dining company.. LOL!

[cabcat.livejournal.com]

Wild cat!!?? *frizzes himself up*
I, sir, am a domesticated housecat!!! Even if I do try to trick you into various cooking appliances.

[karpour.livejournal.com]

very interesting!! thanks for sharing those :D
henrieke and me were running around in the wal-mart in the u.s. and taking photos of cereal boxes xD

[c-eagle.livejournal.com]

no problem.. glad you liked 'em!

LOL... I do that too, sometimes :D ... heh!... This time around I figured I'd just collect the whole set... *wags feathers*
