I found these on eBay. They are cereal box promotions with the initials R&L on the sprue. I don't know anything more about them and neither does the seller. Perhaps someone here can shed some light. Attachments:

The first one is a Honda F1 Car! They look suspiciously like the Aurora or Heller mini snap models from the late 60's I will see if I can dig mine out, I am pretty sure they are.. They are about 1/64th scale in size. The ob=nes that came in Cereal boxes were a polypropylene softer plastic and the Aurora, Heller or Lindberg etc were styrene, thats a good way to tell.. Chris

These are very cool, and I never heard of a cereal promotion!
I would like to own some of these, you found these on eBay?

One of the best one that they offered was a 67 Dan Gurney Cougar!! I had a couple that I put on Aurora T-Jet slot car chassis! They were close enough in size and looked great, everybody wondered where they came from! I looked for the set of open wheel set I have but they must have already been packed away for the big move..
