BARADA NIKTO Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Sonic Wave Air Blaster ray gun from the early sixties. A proof-of-purchase prize from the Kellogg's company. Advertisement from the back of a Kellogg's Sugar Smacks cereal package. Can't find it in the database so I thought I'd send the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dratomic Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Nice piece. I like the box flat! Was it ever assembled, or were you able to get an unassembled example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe K. Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 . Perhaps the inspiration for this Valentine's card? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Thanks, Barada. Now added to the Air Blaster Guns. I see that it's basically a Super Air Zapper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BARADA NIKTO Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Brian, the box is not mine. I found the picture from an old auction. Certainly is a unique looking ray gun though. This 'premium' was also on a box of Kellogg's OK cereal. Possibly others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorenzo el Jefe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 My smart phone photos would not upload. So I resent them in the smallest possible setting and out of the 3 only one would upload. Good news is I attached a photo of the complete set with plain 'mail' box. paper targets and instructions. I was surprised that there was no further bang on the wonderful Premium.

Lorenzo el Jefe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 ... so I thought to myself that I have noticed much of the dialogue is in new boxes ,,, light bulb went off. Ironically here are the instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorenzo el Jefe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 ... when on target, stay on target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorenzo el Jefe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Sorry about the last image as it was edited, and sent, right side up. The reason for this caveat is that the only marking on the box is the disclaimer line partially torn. Plain box as with Lost in Space mailing box and earlier examples such as Spinmaster which has the ultimate plain wrapper box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe K. Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 . In 1967 Wham-o added a bubble wand to the front sight and included some bubble solution in the packaging. The result: Zap-A-Bubble gun: As seen here: http://www.seizetheplay.com/2008/12/air-blaster-zap-bubble.html . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe K. Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Here's a 1968 Our Own Hardware catalog ad for the Wham-O Air Zapper. This packaging is different from the others pictured in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
