I miss toy stores. Not the collector ones that charge a arm and a leg but ones that charge retail price for stuff and give you that kid feeling. Especially when you have kids and you go into the the same store with them that you went into as a kid.

I'm with you. Lots of fond memories of TRU and KayBee toys. It's just not the same these days.

i worked at kb towards the end of it. i'd prepped and opened a store in tampa's international plaza, and then later taken it's inventory into my store because it was closed.
it was sad watching them all close, but the one in altamonte held out until the very last day; which was pretty awesome and i lived down the street from there. i was really excited that toys r us was bringing kb back for special stuff, but then that stopped and then tru was shut down. thanks bain capital! |

Honestly, TRU processing Canada are so ridiculous now that I only buy their exclusives. Other stuff, I have been able to get cheaper at the collectible stores or for the same price. Gamestop is where I get most of my stuff now.
