    I found and bought both of these at a local Hollywood Video. They cost $2.92 each. One is of the Red Chocolate M&M dressed up as Movie Optimus Prime and the other is of the Yellow Peanut M&M dressed up as Movie BumbleBee.

    Each one is around 4 & 1/2 inches high. They are both fully painted and made of both hard plastic and hard flexible rubber (they are NOT poseable). Very detailed both in paint and sculpt for candy dispensers. Both figures are attached to triangular black plastic bases covered with clear backed stickers. One side is the M&M's logo, the other side is the ROTF logo, and the Autobot logo with red eyes is placed on the top before each figure's feet. After the Autobot sticker, and before their feet is an open slot big enough to fit quarters through. This black plastic display base doubles as a candy dispenser for M&M's and also as a bank for money. On the bottom of each base is a hinged door used to retrieve the M&M's candy or the money you place inside it.

    They also make "Candy Fans" with M&M's Chocolate Red as Optimus Prime and M&M's Peanut Yellow as Starscream figures that stand on top of the fans.

    And they also make M&M's Transformers character "Candy Tins" featuring all the "Transformer-fied" M&M's characters.

    And there is ever more M&M's Transformers products on the way for the Holidays, seen here in a thread I made that got lost in the shuffle:
