Hey Gary,

As everybody’s already pointed out, the guys in the tree are, indeed, the Freakies. They weren’t from the moon, however, so maybe you’re remembering another cereal (there were plenty in the early ’70s that featured space and moon-themed characters). Ralston did do the Freakies, but also a cereal called “Moonstones.” Check it out on Topher’s invaluable site here:

In the meantime, stay tuned for future installments of BOTG (which very likely will feature a couple of well-loved characters whose names begin with Q).

I'm just hoping Quisp makes an appearance.

I had an aunt that worked for whichever ad agency had the account for that cereal, so I had as much of the cereal as I could eat and all the toys. Wonder where they wound up.

I don’t know what cereal they were from, but I remember those guys too. I had toys.
