What kind of exclusive and weird merchandise or promotions did you have in your countries?
I live in Russia, and we had a lot of interesting stuff:
Cheetos Tazos/Caps. The 2001 tazos had the green back, and 2003 ones - the blue back.
Collectable Book Cards. Yep, instead of the pictures we had these weird cards with unthinkable backgrounds(you can even see the Enterprise there!). Also we have only first three Legends translated.
Bookmarkers
...And Piraka-themed SMS-quiz! Back in 2005, all that you've need was guessing the Piraka's colors. You could win the first Piraka sets ever.
Also I know there were some weird promotions in Poland. For example, they had Copper Kanohi and comics in the chips.
