Deploy Retail Windows Images on WDS?

I have 10 laptops I would like to upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 10. They're not old but for some reason my friend installed Windows Vista on them... Anyway, my home server is running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (had a license laying around at work). I decided to download Windows 10 Pro with that media creation tool from Microsoft and to speed up the process I decided I would just use WDS to deploy it on those 10 laptops.



While playing with it for a while I came to the conclusion that those are retail images, so I can't even add them to WDS. Is there any way I could deploy a retail image with WDS? I really don't want to have to burn a DVD and have to wait for the computers to install Windows one by one.
