--- Quote ---I don't understand. You kept the whole cereal box? You didn't cut the record off and play it?
--- End quote ---
I aquired it later in life. I had the very same cereal box as a kid. I remember the cereal box records VERY well. I had a Jackson 5 record, the Archies, the Sugar Bears, Bobby Sherman and the Monkees records, too. I was an only child so I got to pick the boxes and keep the prize!
--- Quote ---My family had a plastic green Josie spoon (Josie was on the tip of the handle), but I don't remember when or where we got it.
--- End quote ---
I have the set of the 5 spoons, too. Josie, Melody, Alexander, Valerie, Alan and Sebastian. Alexandria got shafted with both lines of toys! She doesn't appear on neither the spoons nor the erasers.
Toycoon:
OK Smelly, let me guess...I'll bet you considered boning Doug, too. You just like Doug's fuzzy mutton chops!
I always dug EmmyJo's go-go boots. "Delicate and feminine is Henrietta Hippo"

--- Quote ---Now, Aquaman was one of the main crew here, but I still think he don't get as much love as the others. Why come? He was always my favorite. I even had an Aquaman doll when I was a kid.

SmellyKelly, you're just copying me now! Aquaman was my favorite, too. I had the Mego Superhero Aquaman. In the stories my cousin and I dreamed up, Aqua and his cool friends (Batman, Superman and Mr. Fantastic) lived in a swanky shoebox apartment surrounded by MOD furniture such as a chair made out of a champagne cork with the wire and an occasional table made from the little plastic doodad in the middle of the delivery pizza (to keep it from sticking to the box). He got a lot of action from Dorothy and Glinda from the Wizard of Oz crew living right next door (in my cousin's sister's OZ playset).

I think it was hard to work Aquaman in the stories, there would have to be water and fish around!
my faves were the WonderTwins!
LauraGigs:
DAMN Kelly, you're a treasure trove of 70s-era memories!!
--- Quote ---I think I still have some records that came on the back of cereal boxes. Mine were from Honeycombs (Honeycomb's big! Yeah, yeah, yeah! It's not small. No, no, no!) and they are haunted house records.
--- End quote ---
OhMiGod, I totally remember that haunted house record! This is all really takin' me back . . .
Speaking of cereal jingles, do you remember the one for Freakies? "We are the freakies, we are the freakies, and this is the freakies tree. [wtf?] We never miss a meal, cause we love our cer-ee-illl . . ."
