I remember I had 20 of those kelloggs reflectors on my bmx when I was a kid. I felt like I was riding around on a Harley with those bad boys. Christ, we were easily pleased back then
It WAS "Tell them about the honey, Mummy". In the original ads Henry McGee of Benny Hill Show fame played "Mummy", and would often say "I'm not his mummy". It changed in the mid-80s to this LESSER CATCHPHRASE. AND THAT IS THE STORY FACTS.
I remember it being "tell them about the honey mummy" when I was a kid in the 90s, so they must have changed back to the superior slogan, possibly following an angry backlash from sugar puffs fans
Benny used to slap the head off that bald fella. I wonder did he ever retaliate and stitch benny one. Just keep loafing him until they had to be separated. Anyway just a thought
They may have reissued them later on. I remember getting one and watching Thundercats. I'm sure it was 86. They didn't work like they did on the advert but they were still cool.
oh god it reminds me of way back when McDonalds had FIFA in their Happy Meals. No idea what year it was. 2000, 2001? I think they had some kind of eagle/gryphon mascot at that time. edit because i actually managed to find it. The mascot was from 1998, it was a rooster named Footix and it was the mascot of France. McDonalds had toys themed around it too and after googling it, i recall having a kite. I still have to try and remember that CD. I was only 7 at that time so my memory is foggy.
oh boy you made me think of chex quest, that one doom clone that came with chex cerial in the 90s with a free sequel on their site, and got ANOTHER sequel in 2008 due to the popularity
I remember getting this dvd in a fruit loops box and playing it many times when I was little. The movie was absolutely insane and trippy, and forr the longest time I only remember it being an LSD fever dream from my childhood. No one had any idea what the hell I was talking about, and I genuinely thought I imagined it when I was high on Pepto bismol or something. I spent YEARS trying to remember ANY bit of it that I could, and tried looking it up. But nothing I could remember was sticking. I'm telling you I was OBSESSED with trying to find this movie. but, a few months ago (about 15-17 years after I watched it) I I finally did it. The theif and the cobbler I genuinely teared up when I popped it into the DVD player and the flood of colours came pouring it. It was proof that I was not insane, and I did not waste FOREVER trying to hunt this damn thing down. The movie is an absolute treasure and I highly encourage anyone to seek out this thing if you don't know about it.
Yeah... The story behind the making of that movie is kind of tragic. The artist ran out of money and support, so the studio just jammed a bunch of pop culture references and Aladdin knock-off stuff to fill the run time and shipped it off to theaters. Originally there was supposed to be ZERO dialogue in the movie. I've been told there's a fan re-cut that follows the original screenplay called "The re-cobbled cut" that's supposed to be about as close to the artist's vision as is possible with what exists, might be worth a watch if you can track it down online.
god this is sooo late but I absolutely recommend checking out the recobbled cut of the Thief and the Cobbler! I've seen it here on youtube and the animation of it is of course, absolutely stunning and a trip at the same time. It really is just a joy to watch even if just for the animation alone!
The spoons were brilliant. I used to have a Frankenstein's monster one that changed from green to yellow and somehow got slightly stuck eventually so by the end it never quite changed all the way back. It was probably starting to break down chemically and slowly poisoning me. Still cool though.
I remember collecting all of the Horrible Histories audiobook CDs with packs of Kellogg's cereal. Then staying up all night in my room listening to them then being too tired for school the next day. Ahh, good times!...
I remember those yo-yos were a "fad" when I was in high school one year. There was even a guy invited in to perform tricks with them. I had Fanta, Coke and Sprite yo-yos. I remember the gold ones were much sought after.
Those yoyos to those day are huge collectors items I remember having a Sprite one and my brother had a fanta one growing up. It was like the must have thing to have for ages.
Me too. We were generally a cornflakes household but clearly must have gone over to the darkside on at least one occasion because those cards gave me the old nostalgic shiver.
This is so nostalgic. To be honest, the greatest thing ever to come out of a cereal box though, was Rice Chex once gave out a video game called Chex Quest. It was a doom style shooter. I remember it being my JAM back in the mid 90s. Beyond that, companies in the united states used to have some weird affinity for character themed plastic spoons, often color changing, that you could eat your cereal with. I remember getting plastic character spoons every time a new disney movie came out back in the 90s.
I was SO disappointed that Chex Quest wasn't mentioned in the video, because that's about the most nostalgic toy I've ever gotten in a cereal box. I've also played it recently, and the sequels, and the unofficial sequel made by I think one of the original devs. ... It's late, and I need to go to bed, but I'm going to play it again tomorrow. Today. When I wake up.
"Now with 30% less sugar" I can't remember what cereal it was, but I remember one making that claim. All they did was include 30% less cereal inside the box. Box was the same size and price and everything as before.
Not per serving (unless they reduce serving size too to make servings per container match), but the total sugar content of the package would totally decrease by the amount of product they exclude from the package. Here's an example to simplify the concept. Take a 100 unit package that has 10 units of sugar. That's 1 unit of sugar per 10 units of product. Now you take half that product out so it's just a 50 unit package. How much sugar do you have now? Since you have 1 unit of sugar per 10 of product and now have 50 units of product, you have 5 units of sugar, 50% reduced.
I think I've seen it with a cereal bar. They just made the bar smaller. Also Mr. Kipling's angel slices have a reduced sugar option where they just remove most of the icing.
16:04 yeah i remember that, every time you ordered something it said "arrives in 4-6 weeks" and by the time it arrived you'd forgotten you even ordered it
Damn man I'd be happy to find those DnD holograms right now I miss back when holograms were on like everything, they're still really neat to me to this day.
I did this hilarious thing whereby I would quickly remove the free gift then tell my mum that it was missing. She would write a letter to the company on how sad her little daughter was, not receiving her free gift. The cereal company would send the full set of free gifts and a gift voucher 😂😂Xx
I have one of those little baking soda boats you used to get in cereal packets - pack the top half with baking soda and put vinegar in the bottom half, then quickly clip the two halves together and the boat powers along by the chemical reaction. It was issued by Honey Smacks, I still have the instructions cut out of the box. I also have a couple of orange Weeto's yoyos, they were pretty crap really, not heavy enough and the center spindle too small. They actually have "MADE IN ENGLAND" on them. Plus also a Weeto's lenticular disc, the same size as Tazo's.
We had square flexible records in our Happy Meals in the states. I had one for ET and one for Gremlins. They weren't glued to cardboard, they were in the back of a story book and perforated so you could tear them out and play them.
i think i actually still have the mcdonalds contest song record they gave away around somewhere in a box, it was one of the little flexible records like those that was handed out at some point as part of a promotion.
@@EmilyStell Ir's like funny shaped CDs you could sometimes get. The actual grooves are still circular (or close enough to it not to throw off the needle) and the outer parts of the shape have no grooves on them.
I had a Ghostbusters promo flexi from a cereal box here in US. It was just an ad with some announcer and one of the voice actors from the cartoon. Very dissappointing.
I remember some of these, but my favourite ever cereal-things WERE actually cardboard circles.. POGs! Chex did a line of POGs which ran alongside the officially released series ('94-ish?) but in unique colours/designs! Loved me a good cardboard circle, I did.
No but I remember some photo to 3D avatar software with a shitty football (soccer) game. FaceMask3D. You could make the resultant disembodied headndpeak via TTS, like a discount Max Headroom.
For me, the greatest cereal prize from the late 90's was a proper CD-ROM copy of RollerCoaster Tycoon. I remember spending so many hours trying to make my park pretty, not really messing with the roller coasters at all, and dropping park-goers into bodies of water to drown when they disliked something about my park. :)
To this day my favorite cereal box toy was a web-shooter-shaped water squirter from the first Raimi _Spider-Man_ movie. Small, lightweight, and pretty fun; wish I could find it in my attic now.
I remember the time period where they were giving away Monster in My pocket toys and mini-Boglins. I think I'll have a dig in the loft and see if I've still got any.
I like how draconian copyright has become to where you can't even show 1/10th of a second of a physical recording to present the sound quality of something. What's that protecting? What is this ensuring? How is this protecting the seemingly God given rights that music labels have?
Yeah, in a logical world using a snippet of a song or video for demonstrative purposes would very obviously fall under fair use, but TH-cam fired their Logic Department a long time ago. What's worse is that shitty companies can easily abuse this copy"right" in several ways. If someone posts a negative review of a song/film/TV show they own the rights to and the TH-camr includes pieces of the media in question, the company can retaliate by having it removed or at least inconvenience the TH-camr with lawsuit threats, demonetization etc. And that's another thing, shitty companies can and will try to extort money out of TH-camrs for "misusing" their copyrighted content. I actually saw this happen to a TH-cam channel a while back, because get this, some online company had bought the rights to a lot of viral videos. So basically, some random ordinary people posts a video on their Facebook or whatever that gets very popular, and this company reaches out to them and says "Hey, what if we were to purchase the rights to your cool video about the thing? You get a nice payment from us, _and_ we'll help you share it with news outlets and such." And the innocent (and clueless) average Joes says "Sure, that sounds like a win-win." So they buy the rights to these videos, and then they have their -slaves- staff go through channels that review viral content to search for content that "belongs" to the company, so that Shit Inc can claim compensation for "stolen content". I know this because the channel they were targeting showed the emails/letters it had gotten. Shit Inc had found 4 "violations" and were asking for... (dramatic pause) *1500 dollars* for each of them, $6000 in total. Shit Inc provided enough information to prove that they "owned" some videos, but conveniently left out the part of what clips belonged to them and what videos from the YT channel the clips were in, making it practically impossible for a channel with a "staff" of 2 people to just find and remove those teeny tiny clips from their videos and reupload. Luckily the fans of the channel came to their rescue, they harassed Shit Inc on all their online platforms, got in touch with lawyers, notified larger and louder TH-cam channels, and the shitshow was rather promptly resolved. *TL:DR* - Shitty companies have the ability to use the copyright strike as a tactical nuke on TH-cam channels and content creators, using it to silence problematic voices and extort (sometimes vulnerable) TH-cam people for money.
Stuart was doing this before even TH-cam became that strict about copyrights. I think it started as kind of a joke but the whole thing became reality a few years later.
@@MegaVikingen Keep in mind, Ashens is in the UK and Fair Use is a US copyright thing. And while TH-cam generously applies US copyright to all of the content, that doesn't have to go for the individual rights holders.
I never knew or even thought that those reflectors had keyring holes in them...think im gonna have to go up the loft and have a dig around in my boxes of toys.
I believe that was so you could also put them on your schoolbag or coat - so you'd be less likely to get run over while walking to/from school in the winter. It tied in with the government's "Be Seen, Be Safe" campaign.
I had a bunch of flexi-disks from the late 60s and the entire 70s here in the US, some came on/in cereal boxes, magazines, etc. (one of my favorites came in _National Geographic_ of Whale Songs)
I remember the things you could get in a box or send away for back in the day. I was born in 1962, and even during the 60s you could get weird stuff in a box of cereal. I remember collecting a few box tops and maybe a nickel or dime, then some six weeks later receiving a Green Bay Packers...tiny...plastic...helmet. Suppose it would be a perfect fit for Barbie's eunuch boyfriend Ken. Recall I also got a plastic football (American football, that is) back then too. And speaking of flexi-discs, you could also get those on the back of, I recall, Sugar Crisps (featuring Sugar Bear) that had popular songs of the time. One of my elder sisters got one with her then-favorite singer Bobby Sherman. I have one around here with The Archies and their hit "Sugar, Sugar" (how appropriate). Actually a guy named Ron Dante; saw him at a "Happy Together Tour" last year with a bunch of 60-and 70-somethings in the crowd. Here in the US, Flexi-discs made a brief comeback in the mid-80s, bound in comics and some advertising schemes; I have an issue of Critters (#23) that has Alan Moore's old band The Sinister Ducks on it, playing (wait for it) "March of the Sinister Ducks". Lovely, really :)
His name ABSOLUTELY is Cornelius! That's the piece of trivia I use to save our team in a pub quiz, I've kept that in my head for about 30 years. Number of pub quizzes won with this information to date: 0
My dad gave me that exact D&D skeleton card when he found it in my granddads house when I was about 7; I wasn't around at the time of their release but still lots of nostalgia in this video!
This makes me want to see a video on the old fast food toys and items. Remember being able to get Batman glasses from Mcdonalds? Maybe you remember the Mcdonald's toys that looked like food but were actually transformers?
Remember those squares with the holes punched in them and the plastic tubes that connected them together? The tubes were all pleated like the bendy part of a drinking straw. Damn, I had loads of those.
I have the whole set. Wish Mc.Donalds would release a new set of em. Possibly based on an anime of some kind or an Adult Swim show for a change of pace. Not that often do we get those in the fast food restaurants stateside let alone having ones sell proper premium glassware. Etched glass rules.
The main things I liked back in the 80s cereal era was the 'shrinkies' were everywhere, a plastic thing that you chucked into the oven that crinkles up! We had those flexi-records here in Australia in the mid 1980s too, they usually came free with magazines as demo sample discs, just like CDs did a few years later.
@@MontieMongoose I played the Freddy fish game 😂 I adored that damn old game. One of the games was when you could decorate your own fish making a mug shot for them.
I remember those too. We got an Operation game from some Cheerios once. And I think a veterinarian-like game for kids, Chutes and Ladders, and a demo for Monkey Island III.
Lucky. Wish I could stay home. Really surprised they're letting the food places stay open. It's crazy how many people will risk their lives just so they don't have to cook for themselves.
It's 2020, and people still feel the need to act like you can't spend a couple of weeks in your own home without getting insanely bored. Like, do none of you people have phones? Or laptops? Or game consoles? Or books? Or work to do? Or literally anything else? IDK I just find that most people who're bringing up their "boring self-isolation" arbitrarily on videos are doing it as an announcement for no real reason Like, "hey guys, look at me, I'm in self-isolation! Ain't I being all pandemic-y!". If you're in self-isolation you're supposed to be doing your usual routine, but from home, anyway, particularly getting work done. I thought that was kinda the point? So why's everyone doing the "boring quarantine shtick"?
@@alanira2971 True. I'm just sick of seeing arbitrary comments about the pandemic & quarantine on literally every damn video I click on. Like, yeah okay, a viral outbreak is going on and normality's gone out of the window for at least a month or so, I get it. I don't feel like being reminded of the fact that coronavirus exists and that the world is on lock down when I'm just trying to enjoy myself on youtube, everywhere I go, thanks.
@@Nytephyre lmao you're not "risking your life" by going out and buying food, as long as you act sensible about it. The way that people are acting like the world outside their front door step is full of toxic air is ludicrous. The coronavirus is not airborne, you know, and you're incredibly safe from contracting it on a trip to get necessities as long as you don't act like a total moron and ignore all safety precautions while doing it. In all honesty, people being overly melodramatic (and generally misinformed) is becoming the biggest problem with this entire pandemic. It's scaring me more than the actual virus is at this stage. If anything is going to ultimately lead to a collapse of civilisation as a whole, it's going to to be from the entire world going through self-inflicted hysteria, more so a result of the actual outbreak.
These are quite nostalgic. I remember having the old Nabisco Dinosaurs given to me by older family members, and I loved the Jurassic Park Lost World badges.
I had a deck of playing cards with Tony the Tiger on, also a water game where you had to press the button to get the two boxes of Frosties into Tony’s shopping trolley. The stuff you got in Weetos was always the best, pull string spinning tops, puzzle cubes, troll pencil toppers.
When I was young, I remember eating breakfast at the table: Eggo Legos with my surrogate aunt Jemima and the box of cereal with Ricky Bob Potato Man on the front. The memories.....
You should see the prizes we got in the 1970s in the states! Records on cereal boxes? Yes! Cool monster figures? Yes! Little metal license plates? Yes, but don’t expect to get the state you live in. Even glow in the dark posters of famous movie monsters, what a time it was!
I remember Kellogg’s gave away small plastic submarines or battleships that split in half and you added some baking soda and it would whizz about the bath.
Ashens, home of nostalgia. I am often shocked that you don't get toys in cereal anymore. That was the greatest thing about my childhood... I had a weird childhood :p This stuff is trash now, I mean, they were amazing toys when I was a kid, but now they just look like junk someone pulled out their loft..
Wow! I forgot I had that one too. That game was so much fun, but I got to say I sunk my hours into a lego builder. Had the Amazon trail and Oregan trail 3rd edtion as well.
Got a pc game in a cereal box when I was a kid once, I remember it was amazon trail, like the Oregon trail well you get the idea, it did nothing for me but I remember my mother staying up all night once on a weekend just to beat it
I ain't gonna lie I'm only here to get away from the Corona virus and to bring back my childhood and take away my worries just for the next 15 minutes 😁😁😁
I can remember when the first Superman movie was released in the 70's, the back of the the cereal packet was background scenery, and you got a selection of cardboard figures of certain characters inside the box..... God, I feel old.....
Wow, this was a great blast from the past! I had the skeleton hologram and the first pull-out picture. That hologram was amazing! Best video for a while
It was hilarious! But i only live about an hour and a half from the big Kellogg factory it used to be a big school feild trip to see them make corn flakes.
I had those Cornflakes spoke reflectors on my bike as a kid. My favourite were the small plastic Rice Krispies Snap, Crackle and Pop figures playing musical instruments.
I remember the two from Kellogs cornflakes, I also remember getting something we referred to as spokey dokes in Rice Krispies. They go onto the spokes and then travel up and down making a satisfying sound as the wheels turned.
@@Chaos89P Yes. Just about all snakes are safely edible, technically, with the right precautions. Taste...that's another matter. It's illegal to kill adders though anyway, and rightly so.
I still have a bunch of CD-Roms and DVDs they used to do in cereals during the late 90s/00s. Most recent freebie I did see was a Toy Story 4 sticker set you could get inside boxes of Rice Krispies.
It's weird how much these stay with you. I have visceral memories of Wheetos foam piece puzzles, the Frosties records and Shreddies Ghostbusters glow in the dark mini Frisbees (or "Particle Beam Flyers").
I remember I had 20 of those kelloggs reflectors on my bmx when I was a kid. I felt like I was riding around on a Harley with those bad boys. Christ, we were easily pleased back then
Too true too true...
This comment just makes me realise how easily pleased I still am as an adult.
Im sorry but if you had TWENTY you were NOT easily pleased 😭😭😭
You think buying 20 boxes of cereal is an insane number over a year or two?

Color-changing spoons.

Yep coke yoyos where a thing in my school to
It might just be my mind but a Coke yoyo sounds like some sort of strange drug paraphernalia.

Amazing! Nowadays they won't sell to kids, and you just get a baggie of cocaine.

My question is, why are they having a drawing for a prize associated with a 4 year old box office bomb?
@@OtakuUnitedStudio this video was probably filmed a whole ass long time ago.
16:04 yeah i remember that, every time you ordered something it said "arrives in 4-6 weeks" and by the time it arrived you'd forgotten you even ordered it
in the late 90s, i got 'humungous entertainment' game CDs in my cereal box, ''pajama sam'', ''putt putt'', ''spy fox''.... they'd never do that now!
Because clients like Steam, GoG, Epic Games Store, etc. have eliminated the need for physical media to distribute games.
The most I remember is those Kidz Bop CDs from McDonalds long ago.

I miss back when holograms were on like everything, they're still really neat to me to this day.
Ashens: Hoo boy, this one's gonna be a nostalgia-fest
Me: Yes, it is an Ashens video.
I got a lightsaber spoon for the prequel trilogy in a box.
I got a lightsaber spoon in a box once as well. It was awesome.
Me too!
Hoooooooly fuck. I did too. I thought it was a yogurt thing, though. I definitely remember eating Jar Jar flavoured yogurt.
Deep parts of my memory has been accessed
AND THEY LIT UP. DO NOT FORGET THE BEST PART LOL. I wonder if i still have them in like the back of the silverware drawer
I did this hilarious thing whereby I would quickly remove the free gift then tell my mum that it was missing. She would write a letter to the company on how sad her little daughter was, not receiving her free gift. The cereal company would send the full set of free gifts and a gift voucher 😂😂Xx

Genius!!
That's a brilliant and also very evil scheme.

I wouldn’t know
Cornelius "Corny" Rooster indeed is the name of the Corn Flakes mascot!
Pretty sure that they actually say that on the boxes
I remember the name Cornelius from the movie Planet of the Apes.
I have one of those little baking soda boats you used to get in cereal packets - pack the top half with baking soda and put vinegar in the bottom half, then quickly clip the two halves together and the boat powers along by the chemical reaction. It was issued by Honey Smacks, I still have the instructions cut out of the box.
I also have a couple of orange Weeto's yoyos, they were pretty crap really, not heavy enough and the center spindle too small. They actually have "MADE IN ENGLAND" on them. Plus also a Weeto's lenticular disc, the same size as Tazo's.
We had square flexible records in our Happy Meals in the states. I had one for ET and one for Gremlins. They weren't glued to cardboard, they were in the back of a story book and perforated so you could tear them out and play them.
In Germany the flexi-discs came mostly with magazines- I recently found a christmas themed one
i think i actually still have the mcdonalds contest song record they gave away around somewhere in a box, it was one of the little flexible records like those that was handed out at some point as part of a promotion.
how do you.... play a square record
@@EmilyStell Ir's like funny shaped CDs you could sometimes get. The actual grooves are still circular (or close enough to it not to throw off the needle) and the outer parts of the shape have no grooves on them.
I had a Ghostbusters promo flexi from a cereal box here in US. It was just an ad with some announcer and one of the voice actors from the cartoon. Very dissappointing.

Ashes finding a crumb on his counter and saying, "Eh, what's this? Eugh!" just reminded me why I love this series.
It's exactly an example of why I love him so much. That could have been cut out so easily, but he just left it, and it's the funniest thing.

Mild shame he did add the weirder bits in, like the use of metal rods.

I remember some of these, but my favourite ever cereal-things WERE actually cardboard circles..
POGs! Chex did a line of POGs which ran alongside the officially released series ('94-ish?) but in unique colours/designs!
Loved me a good cardboard circle, I did.
Yooo anyone remember when nutri-grain in Australia gave out a copy of AGE OF EMPIRES in the cereal?! Early 2000s im pretty sure. Was the best!
No but I remember some photo to 3D avatar software with a shitty football (soccer) game. FaceMask3D. You could make the resultant disembodied headndpeak via TTS, like a discount Max Headroom.
For me, the greatest cereal prize from the late 90's was a proper CD-ROM copy of RollerCoaster Tycoon. I remember spending so many hours trying to make my park pretty, not really messing with the roller coasters at all, and dropping park-goers into bodies of water to drown when they disliked something about my park. :)
"Maybe you can work that out if you have an awful lot of time..." Good thing we're all going to have nothing but time soon, if not already.
Being someone who already never has to leave my home. Not having time is a concept I've never delt with.
The Mario oddessy cereal came with an amiibo RF chip for the game
Mine didn't work
@@OtakuUnitedStudio 😢
What did that do again? I know I used it
Was is like a $25 box of cereal?
To this day my favorite cereal box toy was a web-shooter-shaped water squirter from the first Raimi _Spider-Man_ movie. Small, lightweight, and pretty fun; wish I could find it in my attic now.
"If you have an awful lot of time on your hands." I think, at this point, we ALL have an awful lot of time on our hands...
I remember the time period where they were giving away Monster in My pocket toys and mini-Boglins.
I think I'll have a dig in the loft and see if I've still got any.
Mini boglins tho 😎
I like how draconian copyright has become to where you can't even show 1/10th of a second of a physical recording to present the sound quality of something. What's that protecting? What is this ensuring? How is this protecting the seemingly God given rights that music labels have?
Yeah, in a logical world using a snippet of a song or video for demonstrative purposes would very obviously fall under fair use, but TH-cam fired their Logic Department a long time ago. What's worse is that shitty companies can easily abuse this copy"right" in several ways. If someone posts a negative review of a song/film/TV show they own the rights to and the TH-camr includes pieces of the media in question, the company can retaliate by having it removed or at least inconvenience the TH-camr with lawsuit threats, demonetization etc.
And that's another thing, shitty companies can and will try to extort money out of TH-camrs for "misusing" their copyrighted content. I actually saw this happen to a TH-cam channel a while back, because get this, some online company had bought the rights to a lot of viral videos. So basically, some random ordinary people posts a video on their Facebook or whatever that gets very popular, and this company reaches out to them and says "Hey, what if we were to purchase the rights to your cool video about the thing? You get a nice payment from us, _and_ we'll help you share it with news outlets and such." And the innocent (and clueless) average Joes says "Sure, that sounds like a win-win."
So they buy the rights to these videos, and then they have their -slaves- staff go through channels that review viral content to search for content that "belongs" to the company, so that Shit Inc can claim compensation for "stolen content". I know this because the channel they were targeting showed the emails/letters it had gotten. Shit Inc had found 4 "violations" and were asking for... (dramatic pause)
*1500 dollars* for each of them, $6000 in total. Shit Inc provided enough information to prove that they "owned" some videos, but conveniently left out the part of what clips belonged to them and what videos from the YT channel the clips were in, making it practically impossible for a channel with a "staff" of 2 people to just find and remove those teeny tiny clips from their videos and reupload.
Luckily the fans of the channel came to their rescue, they harassed Shit Inc on all their online platforms, got in touch with lawyers, notified larger and louder TH-cam channels, and the shitshow was rather promptly resolved.
*TL:DR* - Shitty companies have the ability to use the copyright strike as a tactical nuke on TH-cam channels and content creators, using it to silence problematic voices and extort (sometimes vulnerable) TH-cam people for money.
I doubt youtube would recognize it let alone flag it.
Stuart was doing this before even TH-cam became that strict about copyrights. I think it started as kind of a joke but the whole thing became reality a few years later.
I mean, I was really hoping to pirate this song by downloading this video and ripping the audio off a cereal box record.
Crap.
@@MegaVikingen Keep in mind, Ashens is in the UK and Fair Use is a US copyright thing. And while TH-cam generously applies US copyright to all of the content, that doesn't have to go for the individual rights holders.
I never had Kellogs Cornflakes as a kid but I do remember finding one of those reflectors in the park and putting it on my Raleigh Boxer.
I never knew or even thought that those reflectors had keyring holes in them...think im gonna have to go up the loft and have a dig around in my boxes of toys.
I believe that was so you could also put them on your schoolbag or coat - so you'd be less likely to get run over while walking to/from school in the winter. It tied in with the government's "Be Seen, Be Safe" campaign.
I had a bunch of flexi-disks from the late 60s and the entire 70s here in the US, some came on/in cereal boxes, magazines, etc. (one of my favorites came in _National Geographic_ of Whale Songs)
I remember the things you could get in a box or send away for back in the day. I was born in 1962, and even during the 60s you could get weird stuff in a box of cereal. I remember collecting a few box tops and maybe a nickel or dime, then some six weeks later receiving a Green Bay Packers...tiny...plastic...helmet. Suppose it would be a perfect fit for Barbie's eunuch boyfriend Ken.
Recall I also got a plastic football (American football, that is) back then too. And speaking of flexi-discs, you could also get those on the back of, I recall, Sugar Crisps (featuring Sugar Bear) that had popular songs of the time. One of my elder sisters got one with her then-favorite singer Bobby Sherman. I have one around here with The Archies and their hit "Sugar, Sugar" (how appropriate). Actually a guy named Ron Dante; saw him at a "Happy Together Tour" last year with a bunch of 60-and 70-somethings in the crowd.
Here in the US, Flexi-discs made a brief comeback in the mid-80s, bound in comics and some advertising schemes; I have an issue of Critters (#23) that has Alan Moore's old band The Sinister Ducks on it, playing (wait for it) "March of the Sinister Ducks". Lovely, really :)

Why did that cut make me laugh so much. I will never know.
Same here man.
My dad gave me that exact D&D skeleton card when he found it in my granddads house when I was about 7; I wasn't around at the time of their release but still lots of nostalgia in this video!
I remember getting stickers in Frosties that said really 90's things like RAD! and COOL! They made the whole box have that plastic-y smell. Awesome!
The Cornelius reflector reminded me of the reflectors in the shape of Garfield they had in the 80s.
No one knew at the time that the Honey Monster would eventually become Prime Minister Of The UK.
"Tell 'em about the Brexit agenda, transgender."

@@chefexcellence322 An excellent theory.
That's really insulting. Poor honey monster, comparing him to that ugly oaf.
This makes me want to see a video on the old fast food toys and items. Remember being able to get Batman glasses from Mcdonalds? Maybe you remember the Mcdonald's toys that looked like food but were actually transformers?
Remember those squares with the holes punched in them and the plastic tubes that connected them together? The tubes were all pleated like the bendy part of a drinking straw. Damn, I had loads of those.
I remember one toy from Mc D's was a cassette tape of some Halloween themed related things on it. I believe there was a number of them.
I have the whole set. Wish Mc.Donalds would release a new set of em. Possibly based on an anime of some kind or an Adult Swim show for a change of pace. Not that often do we get those in the fast food restaurants stateside let alone having ones sell proper premium glassware. Etched glass rules.
My favorite McDonald's toys were the Inspector Gadget ones. Those were so damn cool, way better than the film abomination they were promoting.
Yeah, the gestalt Happy Meal toys were utterly baller.
Yep. I totally remember toys in cereal when I was a kid in the late 60’s/early 70’s.
I had one of those records, technotronic pump up the jam! I played that thing to death! I think I still have it somewhere too!
The main things I liked back in the 80s cereal era was the 'shrinkies' were everywhere, a plastic thing that you chucked into the oven that crinkles up! We had those flexi-records here in Australia in the mid 1980s too, they usually came free with magazines as demo sample discs, just like CDs did a few years later.
I'm a bit young, we got CDs for games in my cereal boxes. I still have tons of them kicking around in my basement.
ChexQuest? That game was awesome.
@@MontieMongoose I played the Freddy fish game 😂 I adored that damn old game. One of the games was when you could decorate your own fish making a mug shot for them.
I remember those too. We got an Operation game from some Cheerios once. And I think a veterinarian-like game for kids, Chutes and Ladders, and a demo for Monkey Island III.
@@Silver_wind_1987_ My little sister adored that one and played it many times over. We also got it from a cereal box!
@@22kaybee22 it was enjoyable heck I still have the disk 😂 the game is alot of fun and good for learning minds.
Finally an ashens video that I can watch during the quarantine
Lucky. Wish I could stay home. Really surprised they're letting the food places stay open. It's crazy how many people will risk their lives just so they don't have to cook for themselves.
It's 2020, and people still feel the need to act like you can't spend a couple of weeks in your own home without getting insanely bored. Like, do none of you people have phones? Or laptops? Or game consoles? Or books? Or work to do? Or literally anything else? IDK I just find that most people who're bringing up their "boring self-isolation" arbitrarily on videos are doing it as an announcement for no real reason Like, "hey guys, look at me, I'm in self-isolation! Ain't I being all pandemic-y!". If you're in self-isolation you're supposed to be doing your usual routine, but from home, anyway, particularly getting work done. I thought that was kinda the point? So why's everyone doing the "boring quarantine shtick"?
@@alanira2971 True. I'm just sick of seeing arbitrary comments about the pandemic & quarantine on literally every damn video I click on. Like, yeah okay, a viral outbreak is going on and normality's gone out of the window for at least a month or so, I get it. I don't feel like being reminded of the fact that coronavirus exists and that the world is on lock down when I'm just trying to enjoy myself on youtube, everywhere I go, thanks.
@man0z we don't need people spreading this virus so its best to stay home and be as safe as possible
@@Nytephyre lmao you're not "risking your life" by going out and buying food, as long as you act sensible about it. The way that people are acting like the world outside their front door step is full of toxic air is ludicrous. The coronavirus is not airborne, you know, and you're incredibly safe from contracting it on a trip to get necessities as long as you don't act like a total moron and ignore all safety precautions while doing it. In all honesty, people being overly melodramatic (and generally misinformed) is becoming the biggest problem with this entire pandemic. It's scaring me more than the actual virus is at this stage. If anything is going to ultimately lead to a collapse of civilisation as a whole, it's going to to be from the entire world going through self-inflicted hysteria, more so a result of the actual outbreak.
These are quite nostalgic. I remember having the old Nabisco Dinosaurs given to me by older family members, and I loved the Jurassic Park Lost World badges.
I'm 38 and this was SO nostalgic. I had most of this crap. The sugar puff sticker books were the BOMB. We need Part 2!!!!!
I had a deck of playing cards with Tony the Tiger on, also a water game where you had to press the button to get the two boxes of Frosties into Tony’s shopping trolley. The stuff you got in Weetos was always the best, pull string spinning tops, puzzle cubes, troll pencil toppers.
Yes, yes, yes! Don’t forget Monsters in my Pocket too And they often gave you 2 toys as standard.
When I was young, I remember eating breakfast at the table: Eggo Legos with my surrogate aunt Jemima and the box of cereal with Ricky Bob Potato Man on the front. The memories.....
Honeycomb cereal had a Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car, probably my favorite cereal box prize. This would have to have been around 1970-ish.
The miniature lightsabers with ball bearing mazes in side them was my weapon of choice for the playground battle royale
Yes!! I still have a couple of these, the Obi-Wan Kenobi one is sitting on my bookcase 😆
You should see the prizes we got in the 1970s in the states! Records on cereal boxes? Yes! Cool monster figures? Yes! Little metal license plates? Yes, but don’t expect to get the state you live in. Even glow in the dark posters of famous movie monsters, what a time it was!
Those Magic Window on the Seashore things are incredibly soothing and I need all of them
Dark cauldron figures in cornflakes . I ate a lifetime worth of cereals in about a month to get them.
You dipstick.
Rodney you plonkaaaa
What a 42 carot plonker you really are rodney!
Those Figures base size was perfect to use with the Hero Quest Boardgame.
I remember getting a flexi-disc of The Ghostbusters theme from inside of a cereal box as a kid in the 80s
I remember Kellogg’s gave away small plastic submarines or battleships that split in half and you added some baking soda and it would whizz about the bath.
That ending was gold. "Worth precisely fuck all" - Ashens 2020
Ashens, home of nostalgia.
I am often shocked that you don't get toys in cereal anymore. That was the greatest thing about my childhood... I had a weird childhood :p
This stuff is trash now, I mean, they were amazing toys when I was a kid, but now they just look like junk someone pulled out their loft..
Felt ripped off when I got those bike wheel reflectors. My favourites were the little figurines of Snap, Crackle and Pop, etc.
Someone remind me, what is the music Ashens uses around 1:15? I was born in 94 but I know I recognise it from like a 70's or 80's thing...
"if you have time on your hands" THE WORLD IS ENDING STUART. Time on our hands is all we have. My skirting boards are so clean now.
I got a CD with the game Backyard Baseball in a box of cereal back in the day. Put so so many hours into that game.
Wow! I forgot I had that one too. That game was so much fun, but I got to say I sunk my hours into a lego builder. Had the Amazon trail and Oregan trail 3rd edtion as well.
Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 being bundled with cereal was the best.
Those were the best, I had Amazon/Oregan Trails and a Lego city builder. 1996-'97, what a time to be alive
I'm gobsmacked it wasn't "tell them about the honey, mummy", .
It is tell them about the Honey mummy look it up on TH-cam
Oh no, it must be The Mandela effect!
Yup, I remember it being “Mummy” too
It absolutely is mummy in various ads so I have no idea why it's "yummy" here.
I know honey mummy from Ask A Mortician videos. :) Mellified Man, it is interesting way to make a mummy.
As an American, it was very strange hearing “Frosties” rather than “Frosted Flakes.” I had no idea that there was a regional difference.
Frosted Flakes sounds like something a supermarket makes up for their rip off.
@@MuchWhittering oh, it is. Since it’s just two normal (and descriptive) words, store brands basically just copy the name and it’s totally fine.
Ashen's subtle hand movements portrays more emotion than my ex wife did on our wedding.
Add the word "night" behind wedding for extra realism.
that's why i gave mine a wedding ring i bought out of a vending machine. still paid too much for it.
I had so many of the Kellogs reflectors and the Monster Munch ones. The things that slide up and down your spokes too.
I HAD that corn flakes reflector!
Got a pc game in a cereal box when I was a kid once, I remember it was amazon trail, like the Oregon trail well you get the idea, it did nothing for me but I remember my mother staying up all night once on a weekend just to beat it
The most recent coco pops "toy" I remember was a bag clip in the shape of a crocodile head.
Ah yes, reminds me of that old bionicle game for pc. Got that little disc in a cereal box.
Just the best era ever. Late 80’s early 90’s. Miss those days. And these were special to breakfasts back then
How I wish I grew up in the days of cereal box records!!
I ain't gonna lie I'm only here to get away from the Corona virus and to bring back my childhood and take away my worries just for the next 15 minutes 😁😁😁
I can remember when the first Superman movie was released in the 70's, the back of the the cereal packet was background scenery, and you got a selection of cardboard figures of certain characters inside the box..... God, I feel old.....
Dr Who too :)
Ho boy, I think I'd outgrown cereal box toys by then!
I remember when they did the "Beyblades" and the fights those stupid spinning tops caused.
My dad worked at Kellogg’s when I was a kid...that was in the 60’s and 70’s....he would bring home all kind of cereal toys and stickers..it was great!
Wow, this was a great blast from the past! I had the skeleton hologram and the first pull-out picture. That hologram was amazing! Best video for a while
I remember getting "The A-Team" mini comics with Weetabix.
omg id forgot all about them , thanks for the memory refresh
Yeah it was called “road to wellville”. Came out in 1995 I think. It wasn’t a particularly good film.
It was hilarious! But i only live about an hour and a half from the big Kellogg factory it used to be a big school feild trip to see them make corn flakes.
I thank that movie for making me buy a box of Corn Flakes, trying it completely open-minded, and becoming a client for life
FIXTREME Cornflakes are the best damn cereal ever made!
The greatest quote from that film is “Dr Kellogg, it’s you son. He’s throwing boxes of shit at the guests!”
Who remembers the submarine you'd load with baking soda?
I just posted the same thing! Lol had them in several colors.
Yep! I had a couple of them. I remember getting them to sorta kinda work, slightly but that was about it.
I had one of those subs and a diver that did that too. Had a lump of lead in it to keep it down and bubbles came from it. ... lead! Unthinkable now 😁
@@natgrant1364 Yeah, I had the boats with baking soda. Barely worked.
Our chemistry teacher used one of those submarines to demonstrate the properties of caesium. The submarine caught fire and melted.
I had those Cornflakes spoke reflectors on my bike as a kid. My favourite were the small plastic Rice Krispies Snap, Crackle and Pop figures playing musical instruments.
I remember the two from Kellogs cornflakes, I also remember getting something we referred to as spokey dokes in Rice Krispies. They go onto the spokes and then travel up and down making a satisfying sound as the wheels turned.
“Do you see” all I’m imagining now is an Event Horizon remake with the Honey Monster
12:58 *Venomous.
Yes, it's the Toxicity Terminology Police.
So the adder is edible?
@@Chaos89P Yes. Just about all snakes are safely edible, technically, with the right precautions. Taste...that's another matter. It's illegal to kill adders though anyway, and rightly so.
tbh quick way to memorize:
if you bite it and you die, it's poisonous
if it bites you and you die, it's venomous
What do you think about the times, you had to collect the proofs of purchase's from the box, & then send it off to a P.O. box?
Got a donkey Kong wrist game that way back in the 90's.
I Still have my Frosties playing cards 😁
Tortoise of Doom me too!
And the 3-6 month waiting time...
I still have a bunch of CD-Roms and DVDs they used to do in cereals during the late 90s/00s.
Most recent freebie I did see was a Toy Story 4 sticker set you could get inside boxes of Rice Krispies.
It's weird how much these stay with you. I have visceral memories of Wheetos foam piece puzzles, the Frosties records and Shreddies Ghostbusters glow in the dark mini Frisbees (or "Particle Beam Flyers").
