    Yeah, like other people have noted, the small print says "Offer valid in U.S. only." That's plain BS, assuming that they don't have regional specific offers going on. I guess it's possible that the rest of the world versions might substitute the "valid in the U.S." bit for "valid in the UK", for example.

    Although if it turns out that us non-US people won't be getting our own version of the offer, at least the mail-away figure is hardly a must have. The use of metallic paint on the guns and legs would make it an improvement on the original figure... if it wasn't for the bright red and yellow splashes that have been added, for no discernable reason. It looks like Ravage has the carcass of a tropical fish hanging off him.

    Oh, wow, his guns and front legs are CHROMED? Nice G1 homage, there. Man, him and Infiltration Soundwave are going to look boss together.

    Hey guys, would that Shadow Megs have a sticker for the mail-away Ravage?

    Yeah, I'd assume that anything within that catalog, specifically anything with the N.E.S.T. Global Alliance tagline will have the stickers. The Redemption Certificate is what's the hot cake.. you can't get the Ravage without it.

    Oh cool, that's what I was thinking. The redemption certificate is that Mission Guide thingy that comes with BB and SW?

    y'know, I like getting mail away figs. Adding 5 bucks? Not bad. Getting a few more figs? I planned to already. US only? Not worth the work of trying to hook up with someone in the States.

    I don't care for Ravage, but RAMPAGE is looking fine, and Evac makes me want to own that horrible mold again.

    FINALLY! After a whole year of crap & garbage we get some interesting news. I've been wanting the mail-away figure & robot points to come back for years.

    Yeah, unfortunately. Guess it prevents people from mail-ordering 4 different Ravages if they have like 12 N.E.S.T. figures, because I don't think anyone wants to get a BB/SW for every Ravage..

    Hmmm, I wonder if Kinko's would make copies of those things. I'm sure they have the magazine type stock that they're probably printed on...then all you need is the stickers and you can get a Ravage for every 3 toys you buy. No duplicates!

    (Not that I condone gaming the system :p )

    I'd say it's likely I'm gonna get at least Bludgeon, Mindwipe and someone else maybe Lockdown..... so it could happen! I wonder if the offer will be valid in the UK.....

    Nice to see them bringing this collect and order stuff back but this offer is a little too manipulative for my tastes. Packaging the all important mission guide with only one product is bad enough, but with two repaints, no thanks.

    Not to mention the text that says the Decepticons need Ravage. :lol 

    Evac is nice, I am still undecided about that mould though, I keep looking at it and putting it back again.

    Red Rampage is a meh, I have a nice yellow one.

    They all look so pretty in the catalogue. It seems more money is going down on the RotF line. As for the Ravange thing, I'm not fussed. If he had been completely new rather than just a repaint I would probably be more interested and disappointed that the form looks to be US-only. But, it's just a repaint and so I can smile and deal with it.
