I've now spent over $400k on classic crates after the limited offer in the envelope popped up this morning and haven't gained a SINGLE 180SX BP.
When you observe the parts and BP's available in the scrolling bar, you'll notice that the 180SX is distinctly absent from the roll!
I'm running NFSNL on an iPhone, and maybe the problem is restricted to this OS? Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

I checked and it is indeed not a "Featured Item" in Classic crates. It is, however, a "Limited-Time Offer" in Premium crates.
I'm playing No Limits with my iPod Touch 5th generation.
It's a bug that the Nissan 180SX Type X blueprints are not shown as "Limited-Time Offer" in Classic crates. Hopefully Firemonkeys will make a quick fix. I'm not sure if the blueprints not being shown as "Limited-Time Offer" will have any impact of them actually showing up as rewards or not.
Yet another sucker punch by FM - this time the BPs are available in Gold crates only. If you look closely at the icons for Classic and Premium crates you will notice that only Premium crates icon bears the word "new" and has a count down timer.
And no, this is not a bug, this is intentional.

I wouldn't be surprised about that because just like any other previous 'featured' blueprints it's way too hard to even get one in classic crates anyway. Heck, it's as difficult to get it for replaying the stages that offer such blueprints. More than often it doesn't even show up at all!!

@7ru3blu3 How do you know that? What makes you so sure that it's intentional?
As you can see from the screenshot below, it says "New blueprints in crates!". It didn't mention any specific type of crates, so it could mean the Classic crates as well. Plus, both crates are shown in the picture below as you can see.
@TheRealJony I don't see 180SX blueprints listed in the classic crates possible or featured reward list, I don't see the count down timer in the classic crates either, and so far no one has reported getting any 180SX blueprints from classic crates. I am not sure what you are trying to prove. If you think that 180SX BPs are present in classic crates then you can prove your theory by opening classic crates until you run out of cash or get a blue print. I am also interested in knowing the drop rate.
@7ru3blu3 I agree with you completely. Of course it's intentional, otherwise there would be BP's in the classic crates, which I know there aren't after spending over $500k on classic crates and not receiving a single BP. Previously with the BNR34 BPs in crates, I would pick up 1 every $200k or so, sometimes more. You will not find the 180SX car in the classic crates scroll bar, which is further evidence that you can't get them there!
EA is probably testing how many people will buy premium crates to get the 180SX BPs and how often. I'm certainly not going to fall for this Pay to Win strategy. That's not fun at all. Why don't they make these BP's available for purchase in the Tournament Store? At least there you can earn the trophy points to buy them The TS is a complete white elephant now that I have all the BP's for standard cars, just like the car series, which is another wasted asset in the game once you've completed them.

@7ru3blu3 This is what I'm trying to prove.

Something from my previous post.

C'mon! Please read the stuff I typed before replying. It's so aggravating that I typed all this stuff from my previous post and ends up ignored. 😮
Besides I bought 40 Nissan 180SX Type X blueprints for 2,600 Gold during the first Fastlane special event, so it would be pointless for me to even attempt gambling for those blueprints.

@WildeKnight07 Don't be too sure.
It could be a bug for all we know.
@TheRealJony you are simply being stubborn. So far no one has reported getting any blueprints from classic crates. If you want to prove that the blueprints are indeed present inside classic crates then buy some and prove me wrong. You get scrap if you've maxed out your car so don't pretend that you cannot test this cuz you maxed out your car. I got plenty of BPs converted to scrap when Huracan and R34 BPs were present in classic crates.
