Pen Toppers

[on:]

My friend recently came back from spain and brought with him a Morbo pen topper that he got in a box of cereal, he says that there were others in the set. anyone know where you can get these in the UK.
Or since no one has mentioned these before are they even genuine/official?

What cereal was it? If we knew we could check their website for any promotional information on it. It is strange that if this is true that there have been no auctions showing up for it on eBay. I wonder even if it is licensed and if it isn't what type of trouble would this company be in for running this promotion without the proper approvals?
Thanks for the info though. I am going to do a search on the web to see if I can find anything out about it.

Hmmmm weird. Are you sure it was Morbo, and not just a general alien-martian-mars-attacks type thing? I just think that if it was a genuine Futurama product, we'd have heard about it.

If it wasn't Morbo it was sueable lookalike!

Any chance you could get a photo of it Davids?

Yes, yes. All is true! I have friend that dad works for the company that produce them, he told me that these were gonna come out in the uk bout 2003/04. He was telling the truth! :

So, these will be out in the UK soon? Cool. It's just...........weird, you know. We're hardly used to getting that much Futurama stuff, and now that it's been canceled, we get pencil toppers in breakfast cereal. I'm not complaining, it just seems weird.

Anyone else got info on these? Are they really official?

I refuse to believe anything certain people on this forum say as fact, past experience has taught me not to believe some people...

I'll believe that these pen toppers are coming to the UK when I see them for myself. Hope they are though, though will involve getting mum to change cereal buying habits for a bit probably.
