I sent this question to Hasbro and they gave me this Response. I know it probably doesn't mean anything but for your reading pleasure....

Some one reported on a Transformers forum site that they saw and purchased a Transformers:Alternators-Autobot Tracks figure from Toy R Us in MD. I just wanted to know if either Autobot Tracks or Meister has in fact been released in the US yet? Thank you in advance.

Thanks. Did he buy it? I demand pics! Now! :mwahaha :stone

He bought red Meister. I guess that had priority. :)

How dare he!? I would have done the same thing if I already had the Yellow Tracks and plastic white meister.

Chill out kids, go be skeptical of the idiot posting coded messages about the TF movie.

Why does everyone think this is code? Don was merely saying that Sacha Baron Cohen is being considered for a role. Which, frankly, means nothing more than that at this stage. And his "gay transformer" comment was likely just a joke.

 

Vulchers. Every last one you.

Question...if this is a figure no one else in the US has seen, and Trailfollower obviously knows by now that he is the first to report it, and it's been two days since he got it....

 

Why still no pictures? Why no other sightings anywhere?

 

I mean, I hate it when people are doubters for no reason, but on the other hand there comes a time when it's "put up or shut up".

If anyone is familiar at all with Cohen, then they realize he'll do just about anything to get someone riled up.
