I would be totally okay with mounts or minions being exclusive to large events such as the Tokyo Game Show, or E3 or GamesCom.
Because those are large enough events that would warrant this, allow a lot of people to grant access to it.
But a collaboration with a bubble tea store that has stores in 7 countries in EU, with not even all stores participating?

Ideally speaking I'd like to see none of it though....FOMO is bad and should be stopped.
Just put it on the ingame store...
