Reveal the Shield already has some Bayniverse stuff, so maybe that was the point all along, and RTS has indeed never shown up at the TRU where I work.
Generations...doesn't seem as likely, but they've hardly been shoved aside yet, so it might not matter...even if we've yet to get anything newer than Thunderwing.

The US figures have individual barcodes, making easier for retailers to ID them outside of a case, so this could well be an accurate solicitation.
In Europe HFTD & RTS all had the same barcode, as far as stores purchasing wholsesale were concerned HFTD-Axor was the same figure as RTS-B'Bee.
I also notice that W'Gar and Percy are missing from that list...

I'm also wondering if they are going to release the unrealeased ROTF-HFTD figures (like Megatron Rising and the much-desired Sideways Sneak Attack) under the DOTM banner as well...

Now that I think of it, TRU in the UK were the ONLY mass retail store to carry RTS wave 2...

They could just be the same packaging mixed in with the movie figures in the same case.

They are under DOTM despite the fact that the packaging shows RTS

The way I see it, the best way to fix the problem with Generations is to add a few of them to every DoTM shipment, sort of
force the stores to take them. I know nothing about business though. Would it be possible for Hasbro to do that?

I really hope this is true since i still havent been able to find any RTS or anything from the last couple generations waves & at this rate never will. Pretty much this is when we find out that they actually listen to us & if they do care about the fans or not. If they do decide to repackage the RTS & Generations that we didnt get i wonder if theyll also repackage the PCCs that were never released as well, the last wave looked awesome. I just really hope they wont be TRU exclusives cause if they are it wont matter since they'll be over $15, if i wanted to (or could) pay that id use ebay.

So does this also mean there is hope for Windcharger?? Or is it still cancelled for the US? I hate seeing everyone on Ebay rape the consumers. I also hate that people are willing to spend over $50 for SCOUT Windcharger. Shouldn't Hasbro take notice of that kind of demand?

I doubt they are packaging RTS (or Generatons for that matter) as DOTM. May just be a website format glitch. I was there earlier today and there was no such confusion in toy listings. Then again, I didn't do a specific search for DOTM toys and myusual search for Reveal the Shield showed all the proper toys and no cross-overs.

For real?? Seriously? There's speculation about this? Let me spell it out for you. Someone...F****d...Up!!! Someone at TRU.com input stuff in the wrong place in preparation for DotM listings and now suddenly the fandom is going ape-sh@@ over it.
Why do folks insist on totally overlooking the simplest answers??
Why not raise a little bit more fuss over something that is actually worthwhile and head on over to Target and pick up the aforementioned Jazz and Tracks figures (as well as all the voyager class and PCC's) that are going on CLEARANCE?!? Yeah, Voyagers for 7 bucks below regular price, Deluxes for 1/3 to 1/2 off. EVERY TF is clearance priced Who cares about someone screwing up a heading or listing on a website when there's more important stuff to pounce on!!!

Yes because let us all drive to a store that only has HFTD, the bulk of the last Generations waves, and cheap ass Powercore Combiners and nothing else. Because you know there is no reason any of these fans are hoping for a repakaging or figures no one has ever saw or rarely saw in stores when RTS was released on a "Mass" scale.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is true and that Wreck-Gar will be included in this.
