New info has been posted regarding another figure set for the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen toy line. Junior of TFW2005 has posted some new details regarding a Gathering at Nemesis set that has been listed in TRU computers. Here's what he had to share:

I came across an interesting listing under #873581 called Transformers Gathering at Nemesis in the TRU system. At a price point of around $50, I would assume this isn't Robot Heroes, but your guess in as good as mine.

Also, it seems we will be getting a few exclusive for later in the year including Whirl and Bludgeon. Not sure whether this is a continuation of Universe or some movie repaints.

We'll keep you posted on more details as they become available.

Don't know about the Gathering at Nemesis, but Whirl And Bludgeon are already out.

I saw a bunch of boxes of them at my Walmart the other day.

They are the announced Repaints of 2007 movie Evac (Blackout remold) and Wreckage.

Whirl is of course Blue and lighter Blue, while Bludgeon is green and brown.

I even took some pics with my Blackberry. I'll post them in a little while.

Edit Pics now:

Is Nemesis a place in ROTF? It might be a legends or Robot Heroes pack of all the autobots that went or something. Or maybe a few deluxes.

I'm thinking it will probably be a pack of Megatron, Soundwave, and Starscream. It fits the bill and the price.

It's the name of the Decepticons starship back in the G1 days (counterpoint to the Autobots "Ark")
At one point early on the 'Cons repaired and refueld the Nemesis and were poised to leave the 'Bots starnded on Earthe while they went back to plunder and pillage Cybertron but Mirage shot those plans (and the Nemesis) down. (Having the energon stockpile go "boom" inside the ship had alot to do with it too)

I like your idea of a Legends pack, I'm just worried that it would be lacking pretty much all of the appropriate Decepticons to tie-in with it. The RH idea intrigues me greatly considering that it would present the oppurtunity to give us characters like Trailbreaker and Reflector or maybe even Primes trailer with a mini-Roller but for $50.00 there better be a hell of a lot of RH's in that set.
I think I'll hold off on making my actual guess til I give this some more thought.

It's probably a boxset of Megatron getting repaired at the bottem of the ocean. The "Nemesis" in question being a voyager Megatron (hopefully covered in starfish

!) the Doctor (Who?) and whoever else was in that scene to justify that pricepoint.

Its deffinatly a 3 or 4 pack but now what is it. My guess is either a few cons in their ship the Nemesis or its the scene where the cons gather around Megatrons shell to revive him. Either were getting figures we've seen already just repackaged like the "scene" packs from the first movie or, they're completely new figures of bots we've seen already. Im saying a busted Megatron, Soundwave, Long Haul, and possibly one other constructicon. Hope theres more to it then those scene packs from the first movie.

Nemesis is a ship, I do believe.
