Color-Changing Toy Brand Cereals

The Funko Pop Cereal Has a Pop Culture Character in Every Box

— April 12, 2018 — Life-Stages
Funko Pop toys have become wildly popular amongst consumers who find their inherent collectibility far too fun to resist, so the brand has created the new Funko Pop Cereal to offer fans a new product to enjoy.

Coming in several different styles and flavors for fans to enjoy, the cereals are each packed with pop culture character toys like He-Man, Freddy Krueger, Elvira and many more. The cereal is set to be available starting in June from select retailers at a cost of $7.99 and will also offer a color-changing effect for fans to enjoy. This is achieved by having the cereal change color when it comes in contact with milk for a truly thematic experience.
