Cereal Box Auto Related Toys

Those are cool. I don't have any and while I have seen some miniature license plates like these, I did not know they came with cereal.
 
Wow - great collection. I remember those - someone ate a lot of cereal to get the full set.

I was always partial to the small plastic cars (mostly Ford products) that came in some Post cereals (esp Sugar Rice Krinkles - which help me develop in my hyperactive, short attention span childhood). Made by a company called F&F, I still have a few from back when.

My first cereal box toy - indeed the first toy of any kind I remember -- was a maroon Squarebird out of a box of Sugar Crisp, IIRC.
 
Hotwheels, man I have more Hotwheels than you can shake a stick at.
 
HotWheels, never tried shakin' a stick at 'em. I'll have to give that a try.

Here are the cereal relates ones.

I remember a Jaguar E-Type kit that came with Rice Krispies. I think my grandfather assembled it. Didn't last very long

Still have around 80 -90 Hot Wheels / Matchbox cars in a box somewhere.
 
I still have quite a few Hotwheels, some are in better shape than others.
 
I remember getting some hot wheels in cereal... and I used to love building plastic models, I've got several inbuilt and unopened ones, a few cars I didn't build, but mostly military aircraft.
 
I wish you lives closer!!!

BTW I had the AMT fire truck in the last picture! (but now I want a real one)
