Halloween is just a few months away and Funko, Spirit Halloween and Spencer’s are already getting in the spirit with a new line of FunkO’s collectible cereals—including the Oogie Boogie FunkO's that reference the villain from Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas.
The cereal promises to be as spooky as it is healthy, as the green, O-shaped pieces are actually multigrain cereal. On the back of the cereal box, there's even an activity inspired by the roulette wheel that Oogie Boogie spins to torture Santa Claus before he is saved in a last-minute rescue.
This new cereal is now available for pre-order and collectors will want to stock up early as the boxes contain glow-in-the-dark Oogie Boogie Pocket Pop Figures from Funko.
