FREE MONSTERS - Premiums & Give-A-Ways

[Monsters For Sale]

OK, so nothing is really free.  But I thought it would be fun to try to collect together examples of all the monster collectibles that were given away with other products - at no additional charge.

Some are actual monster toys, like kids' meals premiums.  Some are containers, like collectors' cups, etc.


I'll post a few to get us started.

The monster cereals-Frankenberry, Count Chocula, BooBerry, etc had lots of little toys inside over the years.

This really pretty 32 oz. soda cup has only the Universal Logo on it - No mention of Pepsi or a retail outlet.

It was manufactured by The Collectibles, Canada.





This similar 32 oz. cup is marked Pepsi & GettyMart.  It was made by Pescor Plastics in Fort Worth, TX.





There was a set of six monsters.  Here are five of them - the Creature cup is missing.

Great collection! Hey, where did you get that Jack-in-the-Box store display? I used to have one but traded it to a store called Middle Earth.
