Nestle are running a special promotion for Robots in Disguise in their cereal in Hong Kong, Malaysia and possibly the rest of South Asia. They’re offering little SD figures of Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime, Grimlock, and Bumblebee in specially marked packs. These little “Cyber Eyes” figures sport light-piped eyes, are are rendered in three colors, and are being offered in large (300g) packs of Nestlé Koko Krunch, Honey Stars and Milo Cereals. They’re cool oddities for collectors – check out a promo clip below.

How do I get someone to send me boxes of these cereals?

We had those in Poland like half a year ago, I even made a review of the Prime one on my Polish YT channel.
Interesting, and here I thought the rest of the world had them much earlier than we did.

Ironically, according to some people in a Italian TF group, in Italy Grimlock was the most common one.

These?

I care nothing about the toys. I want me some Koko Krunch.

If these make it stateside, I want Grimmy and OP

Light pipeing as a marketed gimmick. That's strangely nostalgic.
Odd that up until a couple of years ago most transformers toys had light pipe eyes. Even getting to the point of sculpting pupils into the plastic Like animated swindle.

It seems that these have been in so many countries already (the Youtube video was posted up by Nestle Malaysia in March) and people have noted them in other Asian countries, South America, Russia, Europe… where are they for Australia and America?

The Phils have these with Koko Krunch, Honey Stars, Milo breakfast cereals and Cookie Crisps.

We had 2 types of cereals during the promotion – Nesquick with the figurines and Kosmostars with the codes for "Nestle Arcade" mobile game. Is the same true worldwide?

We've got these for months in South America, too. Heres a pic of the Bumblebee I got in May.

I think whole Europe got these in spring. Nothing special – they are even crooked and lean to one side. No way is the light-up gimmick as good as shown in the commercial.
Grimlock and Optimus were a *** to find, all the packs I bought had Bumblebees. Luckily a co-worker of mine got me a Grim and Prime.

What, no Strongarm, Sideswipe, or even Fixit?
I'm starting to think that Strongarm is neglected in just about every single promotion one can think of.

Italy got these exact same figures back in April, inside Nesquik, Cheerios and Cookie Crisp.

Cool.

Man that Grimlock looks freaky.

Oh gads I wants dos!

These look pretty cool. I miss cereal toys. I remember back in 86/87ish, Kelloggs had full on transforming robots in frosted flakes. They were very flimsy and cheap, but awesome.
Darkstone
Not bad looking at all. For cereal toys, these are pretty cool.
Makes me wonder why Grimlock never got a faceplate/mask in the show though. I mean an optional one that slides up during fights. Because this mask looks pretty awesome.
