I got stuck at WAGMTOIL and never got any further. I never realized I was wrong with Good Brothers, just thought there was a different path to the meta. Thanks to Hector and Laura for sharing Iron Maiden with me!

I also had Good Brothers at first. And then Righteous popped into mind when I saw a commercial for Righteous Gemstones. Last piece to fall was Iron Maiden. Another example of my googling skill fails (that I lamented next door in this week's WSJCC), while googling opposites of FINAL/PLIABLE PLIABLE/FINAL I first landed on a very obscure Irish band called Mid Term Break

But when I got WARM TOML as my acronym, I knew to switch to an "I" and landed on Iron Maiden in a list. Yes - two scavenger hunt/word search metas this week. For some reason this one did not perturb me as much as Wonder Twins. Probably because I found the answer :lol: But also because you could infer a complete word once you got a "critical mass" of components.
