"Special Offer" VS. Non-Special Offer Cereal Wobblers...?
Can someone explain how the "special offer" wobblers differ from the "regular" wobblers? Specifically the cereal wobblers (Franken Berry, Count Chocula, etc.) They look the same to me, except one has a "special offer" sticker and the other doesn't. Is it a different colored base that's the difference between the two or??

I had to ask Scotty and he said that the special Cereal Box offer wobblers have a silver base and the regular production wobblers have a white color base. All our stuff is still packed so I can't take a pic. I am sure Carol can post one so you can see the difference.

I lied. I thought they were there but I must have posted them on my Instagram or something. So they are there now.

And to throw some production numbers at you...
Interestingly, they made more of the cereal box mail-in offer versions (silver base) than the regular versions (white base). The numbers I found were this:
Count Chocula: regular: 14,309 mail-in: 30,000
Frankenberry: regular: 11,361 mail-in: 25,000
Boo Berry: regular: none mail-in: 10,000
Source for the numbers was the old LetsGetWacky web site (now defunct). I think he got his numbers directly from Funko, but Cory or Kevin could clarify this and speak to the validity of that site's numbers.

Now can you tell me why Boo Berry doesn't have a "Special Offer" sticker on the box, while the other two do!?

LOL. Just one of those mysteries meant to befuddle us. That missing sticker created a little confusion for me when I was starting out and on the hunt for all the cereals. The Count and Frankenberry did come out a year before the Boo Berry, so could have just been an oversight or a cost-saving measure. Even a bigger mystery to me was why didn't they make a regular Boo Berry with a white base. At least they made a GITD version.
