25th MOONLANDING ANNIVERSARY BOWL OF WEETOS

In the 1990's I started putting away cereal packets that I liked. I dug them out today - below - to see if I had any space-related ones. There were certainly lots of Spider-man and Godzilla!
But lo and behold, here we have a WEETOS Moon landing packet below. I couldn't believe that it was for the 25th Moonlanding Anniversary and its the 40th one now! I put it away 15 years ago!


On the back are all the great little free gifts that came in the boxes. I didn't get any more boxes for some reason. Probably because I ate the cereals as per normal and then stored the box! Come to think of it I really don't remember the 25th being that much of a big deal.

But I did get the little bagged-up blue plastic Saturn V in the box I got. It fell straight in my bowl like a milky splashdown! Anyone got any more of this set?

I've got a few. If no one else has any, I'll see about getting some photos taken.

What were the details inside the pack on how to make a brilliant Moonscape?
