    I just returned from a trip to Walmart, where I found several of the Armada remolds, minus the DVD inserts and promo.
    It was my understanding that these would be shipping with Cybertron Defense Hot Shot and Downshift, even though I saw neither.

    Unless there is some revision I don't know about, these should have come from wave 6, so keep an eye out, they might be out

    I think it's actually wave 3. I remember something about 3.5 coming out before 3 did, so that might be what it is.

    Wave 3 was just Snarl and Sideways minus DVDs
    3.5 was the Armada remolds WITH DVDs

    These are the Armada remolds WITHOUT the DVDs

    Wouldn't this be Wave 5? The last wave (w/crosswise, thunderblast & brimstone) was wave 4....

    Crap, are Crosswise, Thunderblast, and Brimstone going to be in the wave after that? Haven't seen Wave 4 here at all.

    It's most certainly not Wave 6 - that one includes clearly unreleased figures such as Excellion and Double Clutch/Override GTS. It's more likely a revision of wave 3.5 that omits the DVDs (as I think, but am not 100% sure, that wave 3.0 didn't actually include the Armada remolds).

    5, 6, 4.5, I can't keep them straight anymore

    BASICALLY, it is the wave after Crosswise, Brimstone, Thunderblast, in which the Armada remolds are cycled back in with Cybertron Defense Hot Shot and Downshift, none of which features the DVD that was prominant in the pre-Crosswise, Brimstone, Thunderblast wave

    No, I've seen Armada remolds a few times without DVDs, at places like Target and the like. It's not a new wave, it's just the DVDs were only included in the assortment for a limited time.
