Fellow Seibertronian staff member, Razorclaw0000 (part of our Seibertron.com News Crew), found the 4th quarter retail exclusive set called "Desert Decimation".
This Hunt for the Decepticons "Desert Decimation" 4 pack which retails for $19.99 includes the following figures: Ironhide, Ratchet, Bonecrusher, and Brawl. All of the figures appear to be similar, if not the same, as previous releases except for Brawl who appears to be the Legends class version of the current Walmart exclusive "Desert Ruins" Brawl. This set was found at a Boscov store in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
It is unknown at this time if the "Desert Decimation" set is only a Boscov exclusive or if it will appear in other similar sized chains (referred to as "Market 6" stores like Kmart, Kohl's, Meijer, etc).
Editor's note: Please note that we consider this to be a Hunt for the Decepticons set since it contains all movie figures, even though it is in the red packaging similar to the Generations line.
Please report your sightings of this set in the Sightings section and/or the sightings forum.

Looks like they all have dirt paint apps but the overallpaiint detail looks different from previos releases of bonecrusher (grey details) and ratchet (belly details).
If the set makes it's way to Seattle, I'll pick it up

Ironhide is actually painted pretty oddly. It's a mix of browns, with blue metallic highlights (the same blue that the Premium '07 Voyager had). Ratchet is "dusted up", and Bonecrusher does have a grayer plastic for the joints as JRFitzpatrick7 pointed out.

Hunt for Decepticons is not Transformers Line, but rather a promotion. The official name of the 2010 movie line is Autobot Alliance.
I am not sure where I can buy them in California. If anyone who can contain one would like to trade with me, please pm me.

I've seen these at my local Boscovs, too. They are all repainted a bit from their originals.
While I love Legends sets, I already got Bonesy and Brawl (well, Tankor) and I haven't heard many good things about Ratchet. At least the price isn't as bad as the "War for the Skies" pack (4 Legends for $25!).

This seems very overpriced for what you get in this set. I think that $10.00 is a fair price (and yes, I know how much the figs are by themselves and I think it's took much).

"Autobot Alliance" is what Takara Tomy is calling their version of the continued movie line. Some fans are calling it "Transformers 2010", as are many retailers. On Seibertron.com, we're calling it "Hunt for the Decepticons" because that's the only name on the packaging to correlate with the Transformers Generations lines. To each their own.

And they're ordered. They're cheaper at BBTS than at Boscov? I've never seen or been to a Boscov store. What other retail chain is it most like? Does it have groceries and general merchandise?

It's sort of like a Macy's, but more. They have furniture, major appliances, housewares, clothes, high end jewelry and fragrances. I worked their during college so I'm ok spending a little extra. The chain isn't doing so well lately, with the Wilkes-Barre one in particular struggling.

Boscovs toys are major shelfwarmers. Feels like I'm the only one buying them sometimes.
