So...I managed to get Scorponok, what a pain to get it though. A couple of things....
Brickseek actually did work for me this time (considering its the only item with that DPCI) there was one Target of about 10 I could drive to, that was 20 miles away, that had "limited stock". Apparently this particular Target was behind on things (didn't even have a TF endcap like all the others). The floor employee confirmed they did have 2 Scorponok's on a pallet in the back but that "they could not be put out until his manager returned form vacation to reset the toy aisle"
So, like someone else here said I determined not to leave the store without one, knowing it was there. I went to customer service and explained, got a higher up manager and they did actually have that first employee go in the back, dig through the pallet and get it for me. I made sure to explicitly thank them all for going above and beyond.
Additionally, not sure this is a nationwide thing, but at least one of the Target's I went to had SS and Siege/ER Deluxes on sale for $16.99. Might be a good time to pick any up if you were holding out, sale ends Saturday 8/1. I'm hoping ER wave 2 will start appearing soon thereafter. Also slightly OT, I saw one Target had it's own peg for SS 68 Leadfooot, so it must be coming soon. But even though it is a Target exclusive, I'd imagine whole cases of them are going to not sell quite as quickly.
Hopefully ill have time to open up Scorp later today and show off my now complete Titans shelf.

It also doesn't pull up the listing on Brickseek or Target's website. Just want to double check. Thanks!
