Between 16th November and 2nd December, redeeming a low denomination green Game Card (such as $10 in the US or £7.50 in the UK) will earn you a shocking hairstyle - the 'Professor'. Redeeming a high denomination red Game Card (such as $25 in the US or £20 in the UK) bags you an electrifying bonus – the Grand Lightning Pack!
The $25 Game Card Grand Lightning Pack contains the following: The 'Professor' Hairstyle and the high-voltage Lightning Staff, which can be converted into four increasingly powerful and awesome-looking tiers, depending on your level:

Tier 1: No requirements

Tier 2: 20 Attack, 20 Magic

Tier 3: 40 Attack, 40 Magic

Tier 4: 40 Attack, 60 Magic

On top of this, it can fire off a shockingly cool lightning emote when right-clicked in your inventory or the worn items interface.
There are two packages available:

Purchasing a £7.50 , $10 (US), €10, or $15 (Aus/NZ) green Game Card will unlock the 'Professor' Hairstyle.

Purchasing a £20, $25 (US), €25, or $40 (Aus/NZ) Red Game Card will unlock the 'Professor' Hairstyle, Lightning Staff and Lightning Emote.

This promotion is exclusive to the following retailers:

GameStop (USA, EU)

EB Games (Canada, Australia, New Zealand)

WH Smith (UK)

If you’re unsure where your nearest branch of these stores is, use our handy store locator to find out. Please note that this offer applies to new style red and green Game Card cards only – not the old 30 or 90 day Game Cards.
Redeem your Game Card between 16th November and 2nd December to get your hands on your Grand Lightning Pack!

So when are you going to reward the loyal players who give you your "bread and butter" payments monthly by credit card? Those of us who have paid for years without a break in payment?
We seem to miss out on all these freebies.

Oh goody.... more stuff I can miss out on despite paying you membership fees for several years.
Btw, isn't it a little unfair to release things that actually have stats on them? Now everyone who doesn't buy cards is at a little disadvantage. If you only do what you can do, you will never be more than you are now.

Considering how many players were disappointed with the Ice Mask, you should ALWAYS include a preview with announcements like that. And by "preview" I don't mean concept art, but the actual ingame graphics.
Also, where's the promotion for us useful idio- uhm, I mean, loyal credit card subscribers? Once you go NXT, you never go back.

I have the same question as Lady Varna, so I'm just going to repost her post.

Is there any chance you'll ever extend these rewards to players who pay by credit card?
Also, what kind of stats are you talking about here...
EDIT: Seems it's not going to have stats, that's good. You kind of implied it though between describing it as powerful and giving it level requirements.
