Marshmallows would go well with snowmen or winter scene; can tops and cans as borders, and the wishbones ??? Sorry, that's all I have.

Wishbones could be used in a Thanksgiving quilt. the kaboom pow is actually quite nice for young boys. I would use it in a super cape and a quilt, even a pillowcase. The marshmallows could go in a jar quilt with others foods, maybe a pillowcase. Any of them would be fantastic in an I spy quilt. That is what comes to my mind first.
I love to see everyone else's ideas!!!

Any graphic comics fan would love the ZAP! KABOOM! etc. fabric. Remember the visual effects in the old black and white Batman and Robin series? This fabric could be used for anything! The rest don't interest me, but might interest someone else.

The kaboom, etc. would work well for pillowcases for superhero fans...I remember those words flashing on the TV screen when Batman was on in the '60's.
Maybe the energy drink for college students for pillowcases for the dorm.

The cans would make a great kaleidoscope quilt. Marshmallows & s'mores would be good backing for a camping-themed quilt. Wishbones would be good for Thanksgiving or chicken/rooster themed quilt. Didn't someone here recently post about a Marvel comics quilt she was making for her husband? The Kaboom fabric would have been great for that? No ideas for the can tops, other than all would work for inclusion in I Spy quilts.

I too thought the 1st 2 and the kaboom fabric would make a great OBW.

I wonder about that too! I imagine fabric designers sitting in a board room showing off their designs and other people around the table commenting: that needs to be greyed down a little, or that would sell well. And I can't imagine how what criterion they are using! That's not a comment referring to these in particular, however.

None of them do anything for me, sorry.
