TODAY’S FEATURED ITEM:

The amusing Kindertrauma blog posted what is probably the complete 70’s commercials for Freakies cereal (they were resurrected briefly in the late 80’s or early 90’s). I always found the design of these characters to be immensely appealing… I still have some of the magnets on my refrigerator. Most the animation is surprisingly slick, especially when compared to the complete horseshit that made up television cartoon animation in the seventies.
