Pop culture toy company Funko wants to help you start the day off right with a new line of breakfast cereals. Yes, really.

The company is putting out its own cereal line this summer featuring characters from its Pop! Vinyl figure collection like Mega Man, Cuphead, Gollum, Jason Voorhees, and Freddy Krueger. Because nothing says beloved cereal mascot like mass murderers that hunt children with sharp objects and distinctive headgear.

Funko, purveyors of pop culture and all things awesome, is committed to helping you start the day off right by putting the fun back in breakfast with FunkOs, the company said in a blog post on Monday. And as we all know from Saturday morning commercials; every breakfast starts with a bowl of brightly colored cereal that comes out of a box with a really cool mascot on the front and a prize inside!

Each box contains O-shaped cereal in an alarming shade of red, blue or green, plus a collectible figure. But, youre going to have to do some traveling to grab them all. Starting in July, the Mega Man FunkOs will be available at GameStop, while the Cuphead and Mugman boxes will be at Hot Topic. You can get the Freddy Krueger and Jason FunkOs at FYE and the Gollum FunkOs at BoxLunch. Finally, Freddy FunkOs will be available through Funko itself.

The toy company said it plans to add additional cereals throughout the year.

I have no clue, I don't own any....I just thought the boxes were cool. Do the dolls do anything? Like....do their heads bobble or do they just sit there?

Most of them just sit there. I think they're kinda neat. I have a couple tbh, but I'm not particularly excited about them.

But the boxes do look pretty sweet
