Additionally to This Entry with some time on my hands and a visit via the chemist to pick up some more eggs i photographed the eggs a little bit better. i will add more photos as i get (Maybe Get) more figures
Packaging
Costing $1.95 and produced or distributed by a company called Park Avenue, The Blind Packaging is just a Silver Plastic egg with a label shrink wrapped around it, there is a perforated line that you need to pick n peel to remove the label/seal.
Inside
Once Opened the contents of the egg includes:
- 1 x Sticker,
- 1 x "Product Catalogue",
- 1 x Figure and
- 1 x Bag of Jelly Beans
Jelly Beans
The Little Bag contains either 8 or 9 Jelly Depending on how lucky you are, they are fruity flavored, they are not bad tasting at all (i like the orange or white coloured ones)
Product Catalogue
Two sides this product catalogue is printed in colour and is only about 100mm long by 52mm Wide
Side A Shows the Figures |
Side B Shows the Stickers |
Stickers
According to the Catalogue there are 10 stickers shown, out of the eggs i have purchased there are 14 different stickers with me not having gotten 5 of the stickers shown on the Catalogue, There is no way to tell how many stickers there are as they seem to be random inserts with the figures.. Duplicate figures i have Purchased has resulted in different stickers. The Stickers Measure 50mm x 50mm or dia. 50mm
Figures
According to the catalogue there are 12 Figures so far experience this seems to be true as all purchase are on the "checklist" i would of liked to seem a bit more variety in the character selection rather then 3 primes and 3 bumblebees but lets face it those two are the popular characters when it comes to kids.. The painted details on the figures are not to bad considering the price points if anything some of the figures shape has become out of position (mostly legs) this is noticeable in some doubles as one is fine but others are not. Paint also differs between same figures with eyes the most affected (not painted properly on one.. perfect on another) the figures are around 45-50mm in Height with megatron reaching higher at 55mm.
Bumblebee
Optimus Prime
Sentinel Prime
Shockwave
Megatron
Conclusion
For the price of these mystery style figures there is some value in it not only do your get jelly beans that taste pretty good there is a painted figurine and a sticker.. far greater value then the transformer ROTF Vending Machine figures that is for sure.. only thing wrong with these that i can see is availability as so far i have only found them for sale in 2 shops...Caltex service stations and a Chemist of all places....
I hope this provides a better look into one of the Many DOTM Merchandise Items on the market.
