FREAKIES CEREAL BOX WEBSITE:
Freakies Cereal was created in 1971 by Jackie End for Ralston Purina. It was distributed nationally until about 1977. Since then, worldwide collector interest has led to the creation of The Freakie Magnet magazine and website, The Official Freakies website (by Jackie!) and numerous other fan-based sites. Hopefully all this excitement will one day lead to the return of the Freakies to our local grocery store shelves.
I have created this site both as a resource for collectors, and to help me find the missing boxes in my own collection. I have also included links to some great Internet sites where you can view, purchase and/or learn about cereal boxes and premiums (freakies and otherwise).
FREAKIES CEREAL BOXES: click on any of the following prize offers below to view a picture of the box front and back. This list represents all the currently known box varieties for the original Freakies cereal.
