I thought they all had the same flavor with different colors. So far I had the Jason Voorhees and Knives Chau editions, guess I gotta try some different ones.

I've had a couple, and I'm pretty certain they're all the same flavor, but just different colors.

I will admit I've never tried the cereal. Just bought them for the box art and mini inside.

I've tried it once and am in no hurry to ever have it again... ;-)

That being said, it isn't the worst thing I've had, just kind of tastes like crunchy nothing.

I have eaten about 12 boxes and to me they all taste the same. Not the best, but not the worst either.

When they were at dCon, Funko staff said they're all the same flavor (which is flavorless) and just different colors. Unintendedly, it's likely a placebo effect due to color association or what have you.

I still have yet to eat any of the ones that I have. Some/most of the ones I have are probably expired by now :crybaby:

They are all the same flavor, which is no flavoring at all!

Not my favorite thing for sure, I almost wonder if it would have been better for them to partner with an actual cereal brand instead of making their own. The cereal is blah and had way too much of that coating for me.

I think the best way to eat them would be making them into some kind of rice crispy treat or breaking them down into a crust for something. You can add whatever flavor you're for that way since they're kind of lacking on their own. Love the pocket pops and box design though.

I’ve thought the same thing! It would have been a great way to potentially get the product onto supermarket shelves too

The figures are cute, but the cereal wasn't all that for me.

Tried 2 or 3 different ones before (e.g. Freddy Funko, Batman, Knives Chau) and all of them tastes the same, just different colorings. :D

Yeah, maybe team up with a cereal brand company.
