Yep it was packed into the box (as in mpm03!), the box was double taped (which worried me, last doubled taped mp was mp ramjet...oh boy) so if you see that MAYBE he has a gold leader class shield

All I did initially was pre-order tlk caliber optimus and bumblebee, later on I bought a tlk slag...but only a week before I shipped it, did I get lucky?
It was never announced that they were giving those away, and I thought they were ToysRUs exclusives (the three giveaway weapons - sword, shield, axe). A nice surprise though.
