September 07, 2026 Transforming the Toy Aisle: Target Finds Prime Real Estate for 30" Optimus
Target can find Prime shelf space for a 30” Optimus, but Playmates had to crowdfund Dragonzord because it was “too big” for retail?

And we’re running hot and cold on Mondo—much like their 200X Fire and Ice Armor He-Man and Skeletor figures. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.
