According to General Mills, KAWS drew inspiration from the original vintage designs that graced the cereal boxes of yesteryears. But he didn’t stop at designing just the boxes – KAWS has also masterminded collectible cereal prizes for each monster, creating an irresistible blend of nostalgia and contemporary creativity.
“I’ve been a big fan of the cereals since I was a kid,” KAWS shared. “Even now, I love the original box designs and the creativity and imagination they invoke.”
