    Stopped in Target on Pine Ridge Road in Naples today right in the middle of a restock. When I left, they had:
    1 each of Paleotrex, Cheetor, and Blackarachnia, 2x Optimus Primal, a full case of Cores, a full case of Buzzworthy Studio Series figures, the Buzzworthy Cyberverse and Mega 1-Step figures, 4 Ectotrons, 2x SS86 Hot Rod, and 1x Scourge.
    What they didn't have: Kingdom leaders, SS86 Deluxes, and Buzzworthy Bumblebee and Spike.

    If anyone is interested, they also had some of the Marvel Legends Spiderverse wave. (Miles, Peter B. Parker, Prowler, Frog Man, and Hand ninja.)

    Is Popfindr working for anyone else? I've used it to search for Hot Rod and the Cobra Viper every day since people started finding them at Targets a week ago, and every store within an hour of here (north Orlando) shows up with 0 in stock. Is that possible, or could Popfindr not be working?

    Popfindr has been pretty unreliable lately from what I heard. Also Dinolynx, you’re a real one snagged a hot rod from that target

    My wife found Optimus Primal and Rattrap on Saturday. Pensacola area Target.

    This afternoon I found the Walmart Headmasters in Pace. Only bought Brainstorm and Chromedome. I never found the Walgreens Brainstorm so I'm glad to have him. And I couldn't resist another Chromedome that's different enough from Titans Return lol.

    Not only is Popfindr not working, targets whole inventory system is jacked right now. Was told a target had 8 studio series 86 deluxes on the shelf not in the back by an associate. I arrive there and of course bare shelves. The employee I got told me that wasn’t accurate at all as they pushed everything they had out. Not a case of “ we had them and someone got them” a case of “ we never had them in the first place “. If I find them I find them without hunting far since nothing is accurate right now.

    Powerline/Hillsboro has 4 Hot Rod's, only 1 Scourge, a few of the Core guys, and a bunch of Bumblebee and Spike. No Kingdom Voyagers/Deluxes.

    If anyone sees Hot Rods or Cobra Vipers at the Colonial/Maguire or University/Goldenrod Targets in Orlando, would you please give a heads-up? I'll use my lunch break to run over ASAP!

    Thank you in advance, especially since Popfindr doesn't seem to be working at all.

    I lost trust in popfindr a while ago, never seemed to work for me and most of the figures I really hunted for I found due to this awesome Thread.

    From what I’ve read, people are waiting for Targets to open to get those Vipers and each store is getting 6 at a time. I’m so glad I didn’t even try collecting Classified.

    If anyone happens to spot any Kingdom or SS86 figures in the Orlando/UCF area I would really appreciate the callout! Thanks!
