It is nice to see the US buyers who went this route get a little extra for their patience.

technically the cupon's a seperate piece of paper leaning against the letter.

Here's some comparison to the original. It's a lot louder, and not necessarily in a bad way.
And as for the coupon, it is a separate piece of paper, so no worries about cutting the letter up. I just propped it up as part of the pic, as already stated.

I believe they're supposed to be postmarked already...

Yep, the closing date was April 30th, and the ultimate date of Hasbro receiving the application is May 14th. Fortunately for you, Recon Ravage has been released as a Toys 'R Us exclusive in Canada, maybe someone up north can hook you up with one.

I'm going to embrace my geekiness and frame the letter from Optimus Prime, with my NEST patch. Yep.
FWIW I sent my check on 3/1, it was cashed on 3/16, and I'm in the Chicago suburbs.

Doesn't the coupon expire in like June or July? Will the new line be out before the thing expires?
Also, it it shipped in the white Nest box? It's raining a lot here lately (as it does this time of year) and I don't want the Nest box getting crappy if it's sitting out on the step in the rain all day...

The box it's shipped in is the white NEST box, so rain might crappyify it.
As for the coupon, it specifies that it is for ROTF stuff. Which I believe means they can't be used on the new stuff if it is out prior to july

Yeah, I won't open mine either. That includes the outer box too. It'll be a cool thing to have MISB a few years down the road. Too bad that white cardboard box is gonna turn quite yellow at some point...

Wow, that's willpower.
Already opened and modded mine- trimmed the joints in the legs and tail for more flexing. *hides*

Ha, don't hide! That's cool that you've modded him. I hope to get into customizing/modding like that someday...I agree with the "more tail-flexing" mod.
Regarding the non-opening, I already have the regular Ravage opened, so that satisfied my craving for this mold.
