The 1968 Grand Prix Cereal Toys series by R&L was another assembly kit style which consisted of only 4 different cars.
- BRM 1966 (RN#28)
- Ferrari 1966 (RN#22)
- Honda 1965 (RN#2)
- Repco Brabham (RN#5)
Colours for these are Red, Orange, Green, Blue, Yellow with the addition of maroon in the New Zealand issues and white in the later Snap-a-Roos amd Kit-o-rama issues. Noting that the Repco Brabham was not re-issued.
The series was released to co-incide with the Grand Prix movie of that year.
There is a wheel variation with hollow or filled-in rear side of the wheels.
My collection of these consists of only three models with one still in its packet although only partly on the frame.

As always Craig Halls’ book , Breakfast barons, Cereal critters and the Rosenhain & Lipmann Legacy, is my reference bible for cereal toys.
