What a bizarre world we live in, eh?

I didn't find anything at www.generalmills.com or www.lego.com about this
co-promotion -- apparently there are other software titles as well.  Maybe
TLC is contracting out co-marketing to a third party.

The Cocoa Puffs are yummy!  I haven't tried out LEGO Creator yet.  I'm plenty
happy with LDraw, so it might sit for a while.  :-)

Anyone else seen these around?  Anyone know if it's a U.S.-only promotion?

BTW, the same supermarket (one of the Star Market stores in Cambridge,
Massachusetts) also had a whole display stand full of ThrowBots.

p.s.  Cocoa Puffs and Lucky Charms are trademarks of General Mills, Inc.
Hmm it would be much cheaper with a box of cereal, might even convince
me to try it (LEGO Creator) I don't go down the cereal aisle much at
the local supermarket.
