I believe you're probably correct. I have been in more toy stores than I can count the last 38 years, and I never saw an aisle which looked even close to that.

agreed dude, we had two stores in my area that had long ass isles with joes top to bottom on both side. my old man funded a lot of my purchases by passing out on the couch with pockets full of change, lol.

I remember my TRU in rockville looking close to this with GI JOE. I remember GI JOE figures from 1991 still sitting on a shelf until Phantom Menace came out.
