Classic LEGO Space promotional sticker

I stuck my fair share of these stickers on school books in 1979, so finding a mint unused one on ebay recently was a real joy. I have foggy memories of stacks of these sitting on the counter at Griselda's toy store in Brighton, or at the annual LEGO display at MYER Melbourne's Bourke St store. They are quite large, around A4 size, and are a wonderful item from LEGO's golden years. 

Check out that cheesy explosion graphic!

Kellogg's Corn Flakes Playmobil Promotion

I found an interesting photo showing a 1977 box of Kellogg's Australia Corn Flakes, with a Kenbrite Pocket People (Playmobil) mail-in offer. It appears that you could send in the coupon (and 50c) to receive a Playmobil figure. 

Does anyone have an example of this box? I know there are some hardcore cereal collectors out there who must have seen it in their travels, I'd love to present a colour picture here on Toltoys.com!

You can get me on email will(at)toltoys(dot)com anytime...

Cheers!

Indy Coco-Pops Premiums

A few weeks ago I featured the Indiana Jones Coco Pops box from the Temple of Doom tie-in. 

Inside each box was a card premium which broke apart to reveal two picture cards from the movie, one photo and one sketch jigsaw piece. 

The same design was used for the Kellogs Ewok Adventure cards which I'll feature in a future post.
