Remember the Retro Themed drinking glasses Target was selling last year? Target keeps coming out with some great Retro gaming themed stuff with the glasses, clothes and posters. You just gotta love their latest venture. The cereals has been out for a month or two and a have limited run. I finally went out and bought all three Cereal "Arcade Panels". As far as I can tell, there are five cereals and three different back panels of Asteroids, Centipede and various game icons lined up like Space Invaders. The plain flavor Cheerios box has a larger back panel with the Centipede theme.

General Mills Goes Retro, Sells Atari-Themed Cereal Boxes at Target
Golden Valley-based General Mills has partnered with video game company Atari to introduce cereal boxes that feature classic Atari games from the 1980s; the limited-edition line is available exclusively at Target stores.
The cereals that are available in Atari-themed packages include Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms, Honey Nut Cheerios, Cheerios, and Cocoa Puffs. They are available now through mid-March, or until supplies last, at Target stores nationwide.

After I eat all the cereal, a perfect three wall liner to my Atari consoles shelf. My game collector OCD is really getting out of hand, I swear a couple guys are going to show up in a Strait jacket. I had all the Honey nut Cheerios boxes laid out on the floor trying to find a decent non faded panel. I ended up buying a second box from another store.
The next Reply has the back "Arcade Panels" with the details.
