It's there but you can't buy any DOTM figures as of right now. Probably not for a few weeks. It's really more of a hype thing.

He's been out of stock for a long, long time, but this pretty much confirms that they won't be restocking him AND that we wont be seeing him in the US for anything less than absolutely outrageous prices.
Thanks Hasbro, we REALLY appreciate you trying your best to get possibly the most desirable figure of the 2011 line into your loyal customers' hands.

I would hold out. It has been suggested that those figures may reappear, simply in DOTM packaging. It doesn't make sense for them to junk new molds altogether without some kind of a return on their investment.

They're not junking them, they're selling them in other countries.

I just finally purchased the last generations figures i needed to complete that line today (Wheeljack, Thundercracker, Scourge, Kup), as well as Perceptor and Wreck-Gar to almost wrap up RtS. Now all of these figures as well as most older Generations figures were bought online. Stores in my area are a wasteland, its like a Transformer famine. The newest figure Ive seen in stores is WFC Soundwave. Most people were finding him in what, October, November I had to once again, by HIM online. The stores holding off new merchandise until the dumb movie line is kinda crappy, especially with speculations that figures like Windcharger are getting canceled. I mean Windcharger's good but he's not 30 bucks good to get shipped to my house. So this dumb line needs to hurry up and get over with. I mean, there is only like 5 figures that are actually worth buying from the DOTM line.
And now the good:
The only thing good about this line is it's the LAST movie line, and other great lines; Generations, RtS, won't be getting cast off to make way for another movie's figures. Remember all of those older scans when we were seeing pictures of a figure on its respected instructions, but with a new head mold? Like on the Thunderwing instructions for example, with a picture of a new head mold resembeling Black Shadow. Im hoping after all of the movie line crap is brushed off, Generations will continue and we will be getting figures like those soon.

Depending on which characters are actually in the movie I might buy the helicopters. Apart from them they all look butt ugly.
