By making a massive cereal box and placing a [half-wrapped civic spilling out](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unboxing-activation), the publicity stunt is nothing short of impressive. Do you remember buying cereal when you were younger just to open the plastic covered toy inside? The sheer joy you received (or disappointment) in opening this tiny package could make or break your day. Dare promotes the new Honda civic with this mentality in mind except their target audience is aimed to a slightly older crowd. As people walk past the [giant cereal box](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weetabix-have-you-had-yours) in Vancouver, it's hard not to want the prize placed strategically at the edge of the box. It's enough to bring out the giddy child in us all. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Life-sized Cereal Toys:** Creating life-sized versions of popular toys and incorporating them into marketing campaigns can capture consumers' attention and create a sense of nostalgia. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive:** Car manufacturers can explore incorporating interactive and engaging elements into their marketing campaigns to generate excitement and interest among potential customers. - **Marketing:** Marketers can leverage nostalgia and childhood memories to create unique and memorable experiences that resonate with their target audience. - **Advertising:** Advertisers can use larger-than-life installations and unconventional strategies to create buzz and generate brand awareness. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Marketer-Targeted Cereal Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/out-of-home-campaign.md) - [Larger-Than-Life Candy Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/15foot-inflatable.md) - [Lazy Cereal Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-cereal.md) - [Hospital Entertainment Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-courage.md) - [Whimsical Snack Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaffa-cakes-installation.md) - [Playful Billboard Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamies-treats.md) - [Reality-Bending Car Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cargurus-latest-ad.md) - [Cheesestring Trading Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesestring-trading-ad.md) - [Emotional Poeticized Motorsport Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unstoppable-dreams.md)
