The Revenge of the Fallen NEST VS Pack of Battlefield Bumblebee and Infiltration Soundwave has been spotted at US retail! This special set includes a redeco of Soundwave, alongside a remolded Cannon Bumblebee to give Bumblebee his “battle mask”. The set also includes the NEST Mission Guide, which you can send in together with three NEST Global Alliance Stickers to claim the exclusive Recon Ravage!
The NEST Battle Pack was spotted by 2005 boards member The_Fixer at a Toys R Us store in SA, TX.

its been a few weeks, but i don't remember seeing a sticker when i opened up Dirge.
i saw the one with Bludgeon, since it was in the plastic bag along with the instructions, but where do they reside in the deluxe packaging?

I'll end up getting two of these because I'm so MISB. Didn't really need another BB out of the package, but that ravage will be mine!

I got mine at TRU yesterday. It's a pretty cool set. I put the patch on my messenger bag.

I hope HTS ships mine soon. I have six stickers already so as soon as it gets here the form goes to the Post Office the next day. I just wish they offered a form online for an extra Ravage like they did for G.I. Joe's Doc mail away (see below).
Like airfox said they did and the shipping was the same. There is one difference. Hasbro allowed people to download another form online that they could use old Flag points or the newer Battle points (G.I. Joe vs. Cobra to Valor vs. Venom). I think you had to have 50 points per extra Doc you wanted with a limit of 4 total (1 with six stickers and 3 with battle points). It is worth pointing out that to get the stickers and form for 1 Doc you had to spent $60 on comic packs not counting what anyone would have had to pay for the old Joe vehicles and figures.

"Too many sonic booms!!!"

That's funny. I thought the same thing. They're easier to cut through though.
The Soundwave in this pack definitely looks cool. I don't like his 'bot mode to begin with, so he sits in satellite mode and does so quite well.
I haven't gotten a rewards certificate yet, but $19.95 +$4.95for Ravage is cheaper than 3 deluxes regardless. Win.

I love the patch that comes in the set, I'm so gonna put that on a jacket.

If Bumblebee was different enough, i might actually buy this set. but as he is no, just not worth it right now with so many new molds coming out.
kylash327
these new string tie things are a pain in the butt..
airfox
Yes. $4.95 in fact.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I was wondering if they made a unique sticker to make it even more difficult for people to merely remove the "Mission Guide" and re-seal the package for a return to the store. Hopefully that won't happen, but I expect it will.

Got mine… I am now wondering if I "Must" mail in the whole mission guide or just the last page would be fine ? I want to keep the rest of the mission guide, and the center pages with the toys information … They did put down a "dots" line on that last page and I assume I can cut the last page out to mail w/ the rest of the stickers/money order??

If I had a reliable way of guaranteeing new homes for extra Soundwaves and Bumblebees, I'd pick up a couple to help out the international fans. As it stands, I'm buying only one of these once they're out locally, maybe two sets.

I just found the set today. The starter sticker from the Battle Pack is the same as the other NEST stickers. However, the purchase form has an ROTF header on the top in color as well as all the rules and requirements on the back. The paper stock is pretty heavy. It would be pretty hard to duplicate. Part of the rules are:
Another interesting rule is:
I almost take that as stores like BBTS may not be able to crack open figures for stickers and request a whole bunch of Ravages. Given that it appears to be a US only promotion, this is definately shaping up to be a hot item.

What the "starter" sticker really means, is the set comes with one of the stickers that you can find in the other NEST packages.
It isnt a special sticker as it might have sounded, BUT, you have to have that mission guide… so, you have to buy the set for the guide AND you just so happen to get a "starter" sticker for the mail away. Sneaky, I guess.
BTW… if you participate in the TRU rewards program, I used the $5 coupon that I received in the mail this past weekend and applied to this purchase.
$16 and change total purchase.

I picked this up today and its pretty nice. I dont like movie deluxe figs but these two are nice especially that soundwave. They all seem to have very nice packaging too! Not one of them had even a krinckle! ( is krinckle a word?)
