Tankito Doritos Outfit promo | Oct - Dec 30th

yet another promo that doesn’t comport with my keto diet…

@manteomax - to paraphrase you, this is the best place to ask questions but I’ve not had a reply yet

there’s conflicting information about the availability of this in the UK, please clarify

About 45 secs of Googling would have gotten you an answer instead of 26 days of asking the same question on the forum.

The marketing collaboration is between MS & Pepsico, which owns both Doritos & Rockstar. Codes from either get you the same Tankito reward in FH5. As the Pepsico sites states there will NOT be specially marked Doritos bags in the UK, along with a handful of other European countries, but there WILL be specially marked cans of Rockstar Energy Drinks.

Here’s a link with the info from Skeeda: How to get free Doritos & Rockstar Energy goodies for Xbox games like Halo Infinite, Forza Horizon 5, and more

don’t get upset, I’m not other than I’d like a question answered on these forums occasionally (by the Forza people, not other players) but thanks for the link anyway

I’ve not seen any promotional cans here, btw, and it isn’t actually clear if the Rockstar cans give the FH5 suit (not to me, though it might seem odd if they do it isn’t described well)

You tagged ManteoMax’s old, non-T10 account, which hasn’t been used since early Sept. No idea if the underlying forum software can forward tags, so perhaps he wasn’t notified and hasn’t been in the topic.

thanks for that tip, though T10ManteoMax should get notified anyway as the originator

Probably mired in flagged posts. :man_facepalming:t2: He gets a lot done though. His calendars, complications, etc pretty impressive.
Marketing guys should finish their marketing jobs I’d think.

yes, probably gets a lot of flags, but what else is there to do?

[I really don’t mean to be off with you in this bit!] all tickets are ā€œsolvedā€ regardless of reality, the developers never show their faces here, MM is the one point of contact and I’m told this is the best place to ask questions and get answers so here I am, doing that

No, you’re good.
I was being cynical about flagged posts, a pattern recently unrelated to Max.
Every proper promotion has well defined rules and places that it is valid included in same.
The controller 32 Ford perk was clear.
The OPI makeup promotion, nor the Doritos, are clear at all.
Guess I’d expect responsible parties would throw up website with full rules on both MS and OPI/Doritos sites. Other contests have been litigated elsewhere because of opacity.
It isn’t a message board issue.
It’s 2 companies cross promoting. On them, their ad guys to fix.
I really resent that nobody owns anything, has PR flak that deals with this stuff for company, not on board, or Reddit, or wherever.
Instead, they put Max in middle. Seems to be shirking responsibility.
ā€œThoughts and prayersā€, ā€œā€¦going to rehabā€, ā€œsolvedā€ and ā€œpound sandā€ seem to be answers popular for not taking ownership.
Lousy way to take care of engaged customers.

Updated clarification:

The FH5 codes are available on Doritos packaging in the following international markets:
ā€œFans in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden should be on the lookout for the exclusive packaging available in locations wherever Doritos are sold. Fans in Australia will be able to participate beginning November 4.ā€ The United Kingdom is not in this list.

The special Rockstar Energy Drink cans in international markets only offer Xbox prizes, not the FH5 content.

But what if I buy a Doritos pack in a country where the prize is available and then redeem it on my console in a country where there’s no promotion?

It worked for me, courtesy of the generous gift of a code.

In the US, they don’t have Xbox codes on the packages. With Doritos, you need to enter a number from the front of the bag and part of the UPC code on the back into the web site. On cans of Rockstar, there’s a code under the tab.

On the promo site, you first provide your email, then it requests a mobile number and it will send a verification code before you can redeem the package codes. I don’t remember the mobile part when I first redeemed some codes, and I don’t have any texts from them, so that may have been added later. But if they’re doing that, it’s possible they may block you if your mobile number isn’t from a participating country. Unfortunately, they also only let you get 1 game related code. After I got the Forza code, it was no longer in the drop down to pick. Picked the Halo one next, then that wasn’t available when I redeemed a third (Fallout 76).

The code on the front of Doritos bag is bottom set of numbers down by the expiration date.
The upc number is the last 5 digits of upc code.
Had bag in trash, remembered, it worked.

thank you everyone!
Although I think with the mobile verification part it won’t work then.

To clarify then…please.

Is the Doritos outfit officially available in the UK?

Yes or no?

Doritosxbox.com
Or, there’s probably a TikTok
Or, try here LMGTFY - Let Me Google That For You
:man_facepalming:t2:

If you get an XBL or Steam code, I imagine you’d be able to redeem it. According to what’s been posted, it doesn’t look like the products will be able for sale in the UK.

Do you have a mobile phone to try registering through the US site?

Thanks.

I went back over t10manteomax’s last Post and I get it now. Not available in the UK.
I would never pay anyone for an outfit, but someone I know bought a code on Ebay, and it worked.
