the UPC (653569861072) I checked at Target was from the Megatron w/chop shop two pack. But, OP is also listed.

First Metroplex, then the generations two packs, and now the wreckers wave of deluxes. Whirl's UPC (653569813989 keycode 52340864) is listed in Target's inventory systems for $29. No stock as yet, but i suspect we'll see these guys with the arrival of Metroplex

Well, Hasbro said we'd be getting the Wreckers wave, but then we panicked when other Generations stuff went on clearance at K-Mart.

Small problem is that the Wreckers wave is the wave that also includes wave 1 again. My Target still has wave 1 figures, so it looks like they'll be clogging up the shelves a little longer. *sigh*

It's confirmation :) As Griffin pointed out in the first post, yes doesn't always mean that we'll be getting stock of a particular range. Just like no means that we necessarily won't be either. Confirmation from Target's listings even though they were initially were listed as a no, include:

Resuebots Series 2
Generations Legions W3 OP & BB
Generations Legions W4 MG & SS
And
Generations Voyager Blaster (653569796834 Keycode 52881381).
Blaster's W2 cases splits are 1 x Blaster & 3 x Grimlock - personally, i doubt we'll see this case. The 2nd revision case of Wave 4 includes 1 x Blaster 1 x Grimlock 1x Springer and 1 x Soundwave. The 3rd revision of Wave 4 omits Soudwave & replaces him with Soundblaster. I think we'll see one of these assortments here.

It's a bit unfortunate that everything I want out of that list i've ordered already. the only thing I haven't paid for is generations legends Megs and SS
If we'd had more accurate info from Hasbro, I might have held off buying some of this stuff from overseas.

Tell me about it. I received the Legion sets in my PoL yesterday. One positive thats come out of it could be for those that are still on the fence about the Legions and Metroplex. Good to see the major retailers and Hasbro working effeciently :rolleyes:

So let me get this straight. So does this mean we will possibly see Blaster here?

Looks like someone at Target had a change of heart about Generations since Toyfair in March... or someone at Hasbro managed to do some sweet talking to convince Target to take on the line (to go with Metroplex).

Could it be something to do with sales on Beast Hunters being pretty good? Certainly following the toy sale my local Target is all but picked clean of deluxes and voyagers, and only has 2-3 Ultimate Predakings left, with OP having sold out!

And TRU :) the generations two packs are listed there also
Nothing new listed at kmart though

Also note that the Wave 1 figures will have minor variations, such as Jazz having a blue visor and some minor packaging changes. ;)
