Yes it was. It was a roundish helmet with a normal robot face (no visor or faceplate).

o rly???
was that shown @ Botcon?

True for HftD, but RtS is the name they're giving to the line starting with the Jazz/Tracks/Mindset/Fallback wave (RtS is the subtitle and new logo they've added to the packaging, while HftD was just a sticker put on the bubble).
PoweredConvoy
Jazz also had a new headsculpt for a later retooling (that's not Stepper/Ricochet).

I'd imagine Jazz will get the Ricochet/Stepper treatment…

well, i'm willing to bet that molds will stay in the same line… ie Drift redone as Blurr, both are Generations. Same with Straxus and Skullgrin.
Perceptor is RTS, so therefore Reflector most likely will be too… and Terradive and Tomahawks repaints will most likely be RTS too…
and before anyone says it, i know RTS and HFTD are both the promotion, not the name of the line, but i'm not about to type Yellow Packaging all the time…

Don't forget to buy the United version

If Rumble and Frenzy both get released there's two (or one if it's a voyager 2-pack). Reflector is coming. If they do a Slicer out of Wheeljack (which is unlikely)… They could make Jazz into a Stunticon. We've also got the inevitable remolds of Terradive and Tomahawk.
Of course, with all of these, we have no clue which line they'll be in… Generations or RTS.
Lumpy
oh, there's always room…
really? that's insane… i wonder if later waves will be more Con heavy…
Thundershot
Dirge and Blurr are wave 4. Thunderwing, Skullgrin, and Cliffjumper are wave 5. Scourge and Kup are wave 6.
kylash327
is this the next wave of generations after Dirge & Blurr? Cant think of whats next…
Thundershot
Also, based on Mindset's cardback, they're giving it all away in the bio anyway…

Kinda funny, since the apparent point of Reveal the Shield is to hide the faction from the consumer since Autobots sell so much better than Decepticons.
Sorrow Six Star
yeah I know.. I need cons badly. at least the reflector can have multiples because he always did. I'll buy a few of those if I find them on the peg.
Thundershot
I think it's comical that out of the 11 "Reveal the Shield" figures, only one of them (Lugnut) is a Decepticon.

Reveal the Shield is getting very Classicy right now but I'm not going to complain as I could always use more. Hopefully wave 3 will see some Decepticons though. We should see Reflector (will buy 3 of those) and maybe if we are lucky we can get a Universe Hound with a new head as Swindle and maybe a repaint of Astrotrain in gray/purple put that is getting hopeful. The glorious Lugnut needs some friends. I can do without Bumblebee but good for those that need him. Having a new head and being painted as Goldbug would be great though.
Generations looks good as always. Scourge still looks weird but I will get him to take the place of the Titaniums version. Kup is just win.
You aren't the only one. It looks like most people are having that problem. While not as bad as you and some others have had my local Wal-Mart has had one case of Generations wave 3, one case of HFTD Voyagers, and two cases of wave 2 PCC 5-packs and everything else has been wave 1. I have to drive 70 miles just to see wave 2 of HFTD. G.I. Joe is worse since the nearest place to me that carries them is a Wal-Mart 50 miles away and guess what, just wave 1. Maybe as Christmas approaches we will see wave 1 start to fly off shelfs and the other waves start to move in. Other than that online stores are going to be your best friend for awhile.

I want the Bee, I have the Henkei, Classics and "Legacy of Bumblebee" versions. I don't have Bugbite and that blue Glyph/Bee yet, hehe.
Deadend
