For the Coleslaw, in a large bowl, whisk together the mayo, vinegar, sour cream, yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, sugar, celery seeds, paprika, and mustard powder until well combined. Season with salt and pepper. Fold in the cabbage with a rubber spatula until evenly coated, then refrigerate until ready to assemble the sandwich.
For the Russian Dressing, in a medium bowl, whisk together all the ingredients until well combined, then cover and refrigerate until ready to assemble the sandwich.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread mayo on one side of each bread slice. In a large skillet and working in batches, if needed, toast the bread over medium heat, mayo-side down, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Divide the turkey into 4 mounds in the same pan and top evenly with the Swiss cheese. Cover and heat over low heat until the cheese has completely melted. Transfer each mound to the untoasted side of one slice of bread and top with some coleslaw. Spread Russian dressing on the untoasted side of the remaining 4 slices bread. Close the sandwiches, cut in half, and serve.
