The Last Breakfast


Sculptor Brian Stuckey's The Last Breakfast finally gives Cap'n Crunch the Christ position after so many portrayals as Judas, a role now filled by Rice Krispies Snap. What is is with breakfast cereal mascots? Their either fighting or wasting their lives together — don't they have any other friends? (Via Cultural Compulsive Disorder)

It's Tough Out There For A Mascot


Won't somebody please think of the advertising icons? Poor things only know how to shill. (From artist Sarah Ingledew's final major project - thanks to John at Neatorama for the tip)



Yep, it's an empty life for these one-dimensional marketing puppets. (Link via Medium Large)

They're After Me Losty Charms!


I seriously love Lost, but I would be thrilled if this is what was in the cave at the centre of the island. Lucky the Leprechaun seem as plausible as whatever the light turns out to be. (Andy Updates via Super Punch)

Cereal Killers


Late at night, outside the Kellogg's factory and all hopped up on sugar, the cereal mascots are in the mood for trouble. Well, maybe not Sonny, who looks as blissed-out as usual. But the Trix Rabbit looks like he's looking for a different kind of trick and Lucky is just a drunk, but Cap'n Crunch, Tony and Sugar Bear look mean. Cereal Killers from pop artist Sam Carter.

The Breakfast Cereal Club

“You see us as you want to see us, in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a leprechaun, a monster, a cap’n, a tiger, and a rabbit. Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Cereal Club.”

Wow, I don't know how I missed this one when it came out. Bravo, Ironic Sans. Reminds me of Rob Sheridan's Cereal Mascot Reunion. Let's just say it doesn't really work out for them.

And, of course, there is the Family Guy version. "Oh, it was a banner freaking year at the old Tiger house. I got a carton of cigarettes. Old man grabs me and says, 'Hey, smoke up, Tony, they're grrreat!'"

Now you'll have to excuse me, I off to get some cereal.
