    Not sure if it's because I live in the middle of nowhere now but Yorkville Target last week had over 10 of each
    of the Retro ML. They had a case of each plus a shipper. Not sure how far
    it is for though

    It's just one of each. 1x Optimus and 1x Soundwave. I saw it physically when the Walmart worker brought it out from the back for me. It's a really long, slim box because they're packed side by side.

    I went back through last year's sightings thread a bit. The Netflix stuff was pretty rare and was sort of trickling out last time, too. Then entire shippers started showing up. That was in May of 2020, so maybe something like that will happen again.

    Collinsville Walmart has 2 Netflix Primes. Picked up the two Soundwaves, one for me and one for a compatriot.

    This hit Plainfield Wally and there was a leftover Optimus. Love the more toy colour feel of him. Definitely will paint the eyes yellow.
