    My Target looked very similar to this in the Joe section recently. Great quantity but only one wave so I see clearance in a couple months.

    District Tustin target has 2 Kingdom Megatrons and they had a Gnaw that they didn’t put on the shelf because it was full and they had all the other figures. Nice that they finally restocked Megatron.

    Target on 5th Street in Santa Monica has 1x ROTF Sideswipe, 1x Wreck-Gar, 4x BB Thrust, and several Kingdom Deluxes (forgot to take inventory but I grabbed the single Tracks).

    Kingdom Deluxes are $24 there, so be sure to price match the website.

    No. They need to get other waves in but with the slow releases that is unlikely. Perhaps casual buyers will see them and find interest but we get what we ask for. We asked for wider distribution and now we have it.

    Went to Target San Ramon looking for Gundam Breaker Battlogue models but they had none. Nothing worth mentioning for Transformers. They also had ample supply of the GI Joe Flint/Lady Jaye/Cobra Commander wave sicne they're on sale starting today for $17.99. Surprisingly, they also had a full case of the old Star Wars TVC wave with ARC Trooper Fives so I picked that up. Good to know old waves of stuff, especially Star Wars, are still shipping.

    Which ones are these? Are they the 3.75 inch tall, 5 POA figures or the Target exclusive USA color schemed RX-78 one?

    It's the HG models from the new show. The Target exclusive USA color scheme is part of the series but these are larger and retail for $26.99. I've only been able to find 2 of the 6 so far. All 6 come in 1 case.
