There was a post on VMK fan site about someone who did get an email response from Kellogg's. They were having technical difficulties, and expected a 1-2 week delay (but we all know what that means).
So, patience...
(Rampant speculation: do you think they might be trying to retroactively implement distribution of unique codes, seeing what's happened to the cereal box codes?)

For them to do that, they would have to get in touch with Disney and get a "range" of available codes. For example, if disney is using 1111-1111-1111-1111 through 9999-9999-9999-zzzz for unique codes, Kellogg's would have to get an assignable block, like from aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa to cccc-cccc-cccc-zzzzz. But that's only if they're doing unique codes of course

Well, since there are 36^16 or roughly 7,958,661,109,950,000,000,000,000 (sorry for the imprecise number, my calculator doesn't go to 25 significant digits) different codes available, I'm sure if they wanted to, they could spare some. Even without using a distributed range, say via a hash function, they would be pretty unlikely to map the same prize to the same code.
