    Went to college point target and scored Wheeljack and Hoist. Then I drove to forbidden planet and grabbed Prime. All I’m missing is starscream.

    I left grapple and few iron works and hoist. I grabbed the only wheeljack.

    Is Walmart the only retailer stocking those Gnaws at the moment or are they in Target at all?

    I found 1 Gnaw at a Target a few months and it was overpriced in the system. Priced as a Voyager when all the other figures were normal price.

    Walmart seems to be store getting the Gnaw waves.

    There was one of each of Earthrise Grapple and Starscream in the backroom of Niskayuna Target. I picked up both even though I don't need a Starscream, but I figured I would check him out.

    Ha, yes there's a lot of nonsense and nearly everything is overpriced by a dollar or two. But if you're into getting ML & SW Black as early as possible, they seem to be the place.

    Doesn't that mean someone toy-swapped it with their CW figure?
