Lego Star Wars Nestle Nesquik 7171 Pod Racer Promotional Set – How Rare is this set?

UPDATE / EDIT:  It looks like this was a false alarm and this set is just a promotional box stating that you can win a real 7171 Pod Racer set.  There Nesquik boxes were like cereal boxes in the store and just had the contest advertised on them.  A reader let me know today, that these boxes came in two sizes, 2KG and 3KG and that they contained no Legos, but just Nesquik.  That is really a shame!

Here are two pictures of the 2KG variety from the reader.

I saw this set posted to Bricklink a few days ago and I have been trying to find out more information regarding it.  The set is pending approval, so it is not in the regular database just yet.  Does anyone know anything else about this set or have another picture of it?    It appears to be from 1999 or 1998 and appears to be limited to 1000 copies that were given away in a promotion in either Mexico, Spain or South America?  I am grasping at straws with this one and looking to see if anyone knows anything more.

Here is the image that is pending approval.   See here  I believe that this is the back of the box.

I found another post on this site here

Front of Box –  according to the text on the front of the box “one of the 1000 super lego games can be yours”

Back of Box

This is a very interesting set that I imagine will be very difficult for collectors to find in nice condition.  I would love to hear from anyone that has a copy of this set.

Thanks!
