Cereal mascots creep me out for the most part. Especially now since I work in a grocery store these days.

Likewise, people paint too many positive pictures of tigers in the furry fandom; they're just overgrown housecats and in the very horizontal food chain, they're just one of many predators to be eaten by dentrivores and decomposers.

So I made a picture to fix both things!

BEHOLD MY VERY NOT BANKSY TAKE ON TONY THE TIGER! Eating so much sugar yet still playing all those sports has caused his muscles to shrink to make him as limber as possible. But he's faster than Chester the Cheetah though! Honestly for something drawn in an hours time, this isn't too bad. Seriously though, I think we need more pathetic and scraggy looking big cats in furry art, don't you?

Oddly enough, this looks more like what the original design of Tony was back in the 50s.

Originally, three mascots for Frosted Flakes were proposed. The animals were a tiger, a kangaroo, and a gnu. In all honesty, I would have gone with the gnu, since it's a seldom seen species.
