After reviewing Drift, Steeljaw and Strongarm, I finally found Optimus Prime and Sideswipe from a shop in Czech Republic.
As I am based in the UK 🇬🇧, I used a mail forwarding service to help me, Tiptrans who also ship from various EU countries as well as Hong Kong and China. I have previously reviewed my experience using them and can recommend them.
I also post further pics on IG: https://www.instagram.com/speelshare/

hey everyone today we're going to look
at these Transformers two packs so these
are produced by Dicky toys and
majorette and you get a pack featuring
the robot and you get the vehicle so
we've got Optimus and swipe and we're
going to look at these so previously I
reviewed steel jaw drift
and strong arm and we're going to review
some more in the future but for now I'm
managed to get a hold of these
two if you're into diecast cars and or
Transformers please do consider
subscribing to my channel thank you
hopefully I will get the other in this
set and we'll do a massive review of all
of these guys together
enjoy okay so first up let's take a look
at the packaging for Optimus Prime and
we can see the artwork here looking nice
it's really tiny like it's the same size
as the other figures and as a result you
can see his head has shrunk which I'll
show you later on we get the car here
and on the back we get the main set to
collect so we've got
here so I've already reviewed drift and
steel jaw today I'm going to do Optimus
I've done strong arm as well so these
three I've got and I've got Optimus
Prime today and sideswipe so bumblebee
will be later
on this is the stuff I don't know if
that's even interesting at all but just
for completeness of these reviews comes
in this
rotatable package and this is just a
typical blister
package let's get this guy opened after
we look at Sid
swipe so really
similar got the red car
and the figure itself it heads a bit
bigger than Optimus more proportion and
this is the artwork here I just zoom out
for a sec so you can see more of
it so pretty cool
artwork and on the
back similar stuff going
on collect these and more so they did
quite a lot of variations of each of
these
but I've just got the main ones for now
uh these are so old really hard to find
luckily I got it for a reasonable price
from a online shop in Czech Republic
yeah and I used a service called
tiptrans which I have done a review on
my channel really good I've not had an
issue with them there've been some
technical kind of miscommunications or
the admins just been a bit bit uh
misunderstood at times but after an
email it's sorted out so not had any
issues at all majorly in terms of
getting my stuff so really recommend
those guys they do like the based in
Czech Republic so but they accept
packages from anywhere and they've got
different bases they've got one in like
Hong Kong one in China One in UK and
various other places so quite spread out
internationally and a good service right
anyway back to
this
that's about it really uh I
think there's not much information like
in terms of the manufacturer I'm just
trying to show it to you but it is like
Dicky
toys
um scan on the package I don't think I'm
not sure there is
anyway
um here we go produ produced by
majorette in Thailand so that's where
these guys are from
and okay let's get these open now so
really obviously next to the name it
says Dicky
toys but produced by majorette
so that's the brand where these
originate
from okay finally got them out of the
packet that was a lot of stuff to sort
out now let's have a look at this mini
Optimus figure made out of rubber PVC
probably
um it comes with this stand but it's
very loose so I'm just going to let that
go for now and I will show you up
close Okay that's optimus's
[Music]
face we can see there some very tiny eye
Contour there that goes around
here this is so tiny this is my this is
my nail and that's the size of optimus's
head so really really small uh I don't
really know how I've even managed to do
these little labels but good job um here
they've just done a
square and like I said proportionately
this guy should be bigger because
sideswipes head next to this guy's head
is a bit bigger so Optimus should be
bigger anyway but they've made in the
same size for convenience but as a
result his head is
shrunken and um anyway
so let's zoom out and you can see the
whole figure here really big chunky legs
easy to stand up and the back look like
see the two wheels here on each
side but funny enough
this is just a
4x4 and it's a shame they didn't make it
into a six so at the back we can see
just some simple painting here for a
small figure I think it's been done
really well we've got shiny black matte
black textured black
here
Hasbro that's right uh and then we going
got scky toys symbol
here there you go and then from the top
you got this shiny silver shoulder pads
then you got this more matte chest piece
here or S of silk rather yes it's got
some different variations of
shine and we've got this gray AB section
here
so cool little standing like I said I
just wish it was a little bit bigger but
for what it is cool enough right let's
have a look at side swipe
so side
swipe
is looking pretty good he is big enough
to have eyes painted on
him and again really
small the transform this logo is clearer
because the figure is the scale of
it is bigger than the Optimus one but it
does look spot on pretty
much with this forward head piece and
this Jagged Ridge side on the
head
um so we go down here and again the
design style are these big chunky
boots a big chunky
carves and
[Music]
ankles Hasbro there b some rubber but
this is zoomed in six times
magnification
so very very
tiny and we've got Dicky toys on the
back
here so this figure leans slightly this
way so I always I've never want to keep
things in packaging and this is why
because if it's held in place in the
wrong position over time the plastic can
just permanently stay like that it's
good to free everything you
know and just display it as it should be
so I'll always open my stuff in the end
here you can see some black marks on the
edge which means that the paint isn't
thick
enough but you know for a kid's toy you
can't I don't really have high
expectations for it okay let's zoom out
here
there we go so I'll later on I'll do it
on the turntable so you can see it now
for the vehicles the die
cars a quick look so Optimus truck first
pretty faithful to the design really
geometric
angular following the cartoon design
style this part is metal the cab front
and this flat bed that is a cool flat
bed
I mean this is a kids toy but it's not
bad you know all these designs and
textures even got a link here to fit
onto something I think there might have
been a trailer and we've got you know
painted lights
here and on the front I mean this is
like way better than Hot Wheels cuz you
get you get all of the tampo you get
painted or
tamped uh design cues from the cartoon
show and I know the Hot Wheels are going
to do across with Transformers this year
apparently no previews as of yet but I'm
really really looking forward to that
one to seeing what they do I hope they
don't let us
down but in the meantime I'm going to
fill my collection with these kind of
vehicles from other brands so I love
this cool like ribbed pattern Grill on
the
[Music]
front and I think the figure's got six
wheels this has just got
four
but you know classic red and blue
scheme piece of plastic here on the
back and we've got the Smoke Stacks here
on the side in plastic as well and
underneath Optimus Prime got the name we
got this angry face determined
face and we've got these albot
ribs okay as for side swipe this is his
vehicle mode and you know based on the
G1 Lamborghini Countach it's got this
wedge shaped
design it's got a big spoiler
here really cool sports
car and it's even got some writing here
could be Chinese I don't
know and similar light design headlight
design to the Countach on the front here
as well
and we've got this lip coming out
there and some more writing
here so there we go we got even got you
know it's been done really quite sharply
you know this Grill pattern when the and
the blue highlights
here yeah really nice touch in metal too
so the windows on both of these they're
just black probably no interior to save
on cost and underneath we get this cool
image of sideswipe being Sideswipe from
the show very confident a bit
cocky but a fun
character there we go let's get these
guys on the
turntable okay first up we've got side
swipes alt
mode looking really
slick
[Music]
massive wheel archers here okay let's
get this guy off and let's go for
optimus's truck iconic red and
blue looking brilliant
okay now for the figures so let's do
side swipe
here let's put this guy in the middle
there we go
it's really thin from the
side yeah I can't wait to get the rest
so I've got a couple of five
packs and I think I've got bumblebee
Grimlock
underbite and the all modes as well so I
will unbox those hopefully soon and then
put them together for a massive video
compilation of all of them out of their
packaging and last but not
least let's get a big bot on
here so here we go Prime himself looking
cool bits bit
miniature but all the details are there
in nearly microscopic level it's so tiny
for reference this is a pack of Kleenex
tissues it's just massive so compared to
Optimus there we
go and let's see all these guys
together as they're meant to be in the
two packs robot and truck and um robot
on vehicle mode
together looking
cool okay let me know what you think in
the comments below hope to see you again
in a future video And subscribe for more
