Urban Art Association

My grocery stores had a shelf full of them not too long ago so I don't know how collectible they can be.

My question would be, if you were an adult doing your shopping and you had zero idea who Kaws was, would you buy a box of cereal that has what appears to be a skull and crossbones floating in the bowl of cereal on front?

What do you think of the designs?

To be honest, if I was General Mills Cereal, I would be disappointed 😕 to me the designs look very old fashioned and dull. Admittedly I don't know what the packets normally look like, but I would have thought their marketing team would be wanting more strong colours and images that will really jump! On a supermarket shelf.

But of course I'm sure they will fly! With so many Kaws collectors 😁

I think it's time we officially remove 'Urban' from the site title. Thought it might happen around the time of the tea pots but we've gone from the back streets to the high chairs.

That said, since we eat with our eyes first these make the cereal taste worse.

OMG 😳 I bet these tiny figures from the cereal packets are now gonna be changing hands or crazy money 🤪

Anyone who can get me a box of each shipped to Belgium? Will pay extra for effort of course!

Thank youuuuu ♥️

That would be amazing! However, I don't know where you can get these ... I check their website and it just states "Franken Berry, Count Chocula, Boo-Berry and Frute Brute Monster Cereals boxes are available now at retailers nationwide."
Have you spotted them somewhere yourself yet?

I doubt they will ship them to Belgium, but could always be the case. Do you have any idea about the participating stores?

Oof, didn't expect it to be that pricy .. Hope someone wants to find out for me!

Decided to go on eBay and was able to get a 4-pack for €75, including shipping. Pretty expensive for some cereals, but pretty cool to get these outside of the US. Will look great next to the Reese's puffs!

Thanks for offerting your help user Error!

I was just notified I won a set of the figures. Woo-hoo! And I didn’t have to buy/eat anything.

I too receive notification that I won the set of figures. I never ate any of the cereal growing up so it was a nice excuse to give it a whirl. Now I just need to wait until til Feb/March of 2023 to receive them.
Here’s the main portion of the congratulatory email:

Word word

If you ever decide to sell the little figures you won, you can always send me a PM. I bought the four boxes to display them here in my cabinet in Belgium (they're, of course, not available here) and the figures would be a nice addition to the boxes.

Let me know
