Big G teams up with Nickelodeon's Penguins of Madagascar

>
Giveaway closed.
Congratulations Cheryl F. ( the lucky ladybug)

SUMMER IS IN SESSION! Along with family vacations and trips to the zoo, General Mills is teaming up with Nickelodeon´s The Penguins of Madagascar to bring the action-packed adventures of summer to your very own breakfast table.
Inside specially marked boxes of General Mills cereals, you´ll "commence operations" with one of five characters from The Penguins of Madagascar; Skipper, Rico, Kowalski, Private or King Julien. Each participating cereal contains one character launcher with mission details outlined on the back of the box including:
•Dive In, Soldier - Set an empty plastic cereal bowl on the table and try to pop your launcher into it. Wear a helmet or you´ll be squid bait.
•Longest Propulsion Launcher - Challenge your troops to see who can launch their character the furthest. Go long or go back to the zoo.
•Target Practice - Create a landing zone with a spoon and try to strategically drop your character into the sweet spot. Hit the target or go back to the drawing board.
•Clear the Wall - Do you have enough projectile pop to push your launcher over the top of the box? Proceed launchin´ troops, earn those wings!

Each character is unique and has their own specific role, and together, they´re a team with lots of character. With five character launchers to collect, make a splash this summer and try to successfully complete all of their missions.

We received a Penguins of Madagascar pack...and my son absolutely loved the launchers....Ok even my husband and 16 year old stepdaughter were playing with the penguin launchers!  Sometimes having those fun toys/games with the cereal draws a kid in.  My son ate Trix for the first time and loved it!  We also received the Penguins of Madagascar Operation: DVD Premier, which both of my kids seemed to really enjoy.  Now my son is so into any boxes we get in the mail...shouting "my box my box" and has to see what we get!
One lucky reader can receive a Penguins of Madagascar prize pack which includes one box of Trix cereal, a Penguins of Madagascar launcher and the new Penguins of Madagascar movie, The Penguins of Madagascar Operation: DVD Premier.


** I just have to add this (editting 8/3)....My son loves this dvd!  He watches it every day lately and today he had to get a Penguins of Madagascar backpack for school!
