K is for Kellogg's Knights; Knot Krescent!

These were issued in 1994 by Kellogg's, pretty much the last time anyone issued 'proper' figures in breakfast cereal, although they were a tad small at around 45mm.

The figures are all in pretty casual or 'at ease' poses, either waiting for the battle to hot-up, or for their turn at the joust, you got one per pack (whatever size/weight of box) and each came with a sheet of four stickers.

The sheet was the same for all of them so you could build a unit of six identical servants of one 'house', or end up with two duplicates if you used them all at least once!

Backs; the relaxed stance of the figures is probably also - in part - explained by the need to reduce undercuts and have simple, shallow moulds, producing simple product with a fast cycle, resulting in a minimal unit-cost. But - they will still paint-up nicely, and one day I may have a pop!

They're not rare!

These were on evilBay, not that long ago either, and you often find complete sets of six, the trick is getting the sticker-sheet, but you only need one-and-a-half of them for maximum effect! It's a box-ticker; box ticked!
