Cereal Wacky Wobbler Count Chocula and Franken Berry

Postby mustangkelly17 » Tue Jul 21, 2015 10:54 am

This past weekend I seen a set of 2 Wacky Wobbler Count Chocula and Franken Berry at a local peddlers mall, both had special offer stickers on them. Can anyone tell me if these were mail away or came with a box of cereal, and if these are difficult to find. I did see some of them on ebay, but none had any information as to where they came from. I have not started to collect Wacky Wobblers, but these caught my eye.

Thank you

I think so too. But I'm sure an "older" collector can probably give you more info.

THE STICKER VERSIONS WERE THE MAIL AWAYS.

What they said. The wobblers from the mail in offer [from their cereal boxes] have silver bases and the regular versions had white bases. The boo berry mail in version didn't have a sticker on the box.

When the Choc and Frank Wobblers were released, there was only the BooBerry bank to complete the trio. During the second wave of Funko cereal Wobbler send-aways, the Boo Wobbler was added. Because the Wobbler was not available in stores- only via send-away, this is why Boo tends to command higher prices on eBay.

And to answer whether these are hard to find. No, they're not. At stores, most definitely, but they pop up on ebay pretty regularly. According to a now defunct web site that had great details re the production numbers, there were 10,000 Boo Berry, 25,000 Frankenberry and 30,000 Count Chocula (these are the numbers for the mail in pieces).

For the white-base versions, there were supposedly 14,309 Count Chocula and 11,361 Frankenberry. Pretty weird production numbers if you ask me.

Thanks for the info. They really caught my eye, but the dealer wanted a bit more than I thought they were worth. I will probably just try to snag a set off of eBay

Those are definitely odd production numbers for the regular release wobblers.
