Not only do I remember the little alien figures to fire at from Quisp, I still have one in my desk drawer. I also remember an rubber-band-loaded aircraft carrier which shot little planes. I believe it was from Rice Cheqs. Also, a Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang from Honeycomb. What do I get out of cereal today? A tiny pack of M&Ms or a He-Man iron-on. Boring... No wonder kids have no imagin- ation these days.
