The story · 1983

The story of Mouth Thunder

Every packet of Mouth Thunder came with Rumbles, a goggle-wearing storm cloud who promised weather inside your head. You poured the crystals on your tongue, shut your mouth and let the crackle roll. The real move was holding your open mouth up to a buddy's ear at the bus stop so they could hear the tiny thunderstorm.

Fun fact

Rumbles got a lightning bolt skateboard in the second packaging run, and the old packets instantly became playground trade bait.
