I've been looking for one of these for ages, and I haven't had any luck so far. Right what it is, is a miniture Coca Cola Football, with green,red and white (with bits of black) colours and if memory serves me right it had what looked like a footballer. Please tell me one of you older folks know what I'm on about.
Cheers.

I agree completely
We got some bananas the other day that were offering "free" toy story lego so thought I'd get that for my eldest.
Read the details and you had to collect something like 5 tokens and then send them Ł5 as well

Exactly.
Part of the fun of cereal was opening a new box and getting the toys
We had loads of those yoyos. I think you needed like x5 gold ring can pulls or something and send in Ł1 to get the football. OK so it wasn't free, but I remember it being really cheap otherwise my parents wouldn't have got me it

If you were special and found a special ring pull, you could get a gold yoyo

I think I was about 8 when these came out.
They were cool (at the time). My parents wouldn't buy me one. Too busy buying another piston or something
