Has anyone ever dreamed of driving cross country. You get low on gas and stop in some little no name town. See a toy store across the street. You think, I might as well go see if they got anything worth while. You open the doors, a bright light hits you in the face. As the light dims so that you can see again, this is what you see. I have had this dream many a time. And as you try to grab everything in sight, you wake up. While laying there in bed, staring at the ceiling, a lonely tear runs down your cheak. Yes, this has happened to me. :(

It ALWAYS looked like that here in Victorville at the local Gemco.

That pic was posted here recently on another thread, but I just can't get enough of looking at it. The Skystrikers! The Joe HQ's! The carded Destros & Airbornes!

sigh!

Is there any possibility that the photo is a from an ad store? The one's they use in commercials that are clean and completely stocked. The only reason I ask is b/c the shelves are just too completely stocked.

Had the same layout at Children's Palace here in Louisville, KY, off of Shelbyville road. It's now a Best Buy. I remember getting so much stuff there, saving my money for weeks so I could get figures and vehicles. Great times, great times.

Ahhh, to be a little kid back in 1984 again. That is true bliss.

I remember Best, Eopie! I remember getting quite a lot of MASK, Joe, He-Man and Star Wars figures there as a kid. There catalogs wear as good as the Sears ones. The first time I ever knew of ROTJ was when the storybook came out in late '82/early '83 and I saw it at Best. I made my Mom buy it for me. That's one of my earliest childhood memories regarding toys or something toy related.
