This shows the front panel from a box of You’ll Love Coles brand cocoa puffs:
Above the words, ‘serving suggestion’, it shows a blue demon with flipper hands standing much too close to a worried-looking six-year-old. It gives me nightmares. I want to yell for it to get away from that child.
The creature looks like a homemade doll they discover in the serial killer’s house. Its tiny legs support a grotesque leaning body whose proportions mock earthborn life. What can the manager have thought when this came back from the art department?
I can’t believe they went ahead with the graphic. Just deleting the whole demon and kid and having the boring bowl of cereal photo has got to have improved sales relative to this.
It is so much creeping!
Is that a meerkat?
