These stores were like heaven for kids. You could go in and find 100 things you wanted for Christmas every time. Best part was having a brother who would also get super hype and we'd run up to each other and eagerly share what we had jut found. "YOU GOTTA SEE THIS 😱". Ahhh... I miss those days when the biggest worry was which LEGO sets I was getting for Christmas and whether Santa really got my letter in time. I was lucky to get to go to Toys R Us though. Great stores. I just hope the business does well.

This almost makes me cry of happiness. This makes me so filled with pure joy. I'm an older Gen-Z, and a Toys R Us kid, and I live in and grew up in Colorado, and so whenever we would go to Toys R Us, the nearest one was about 45 minutes away, so we only went every so often. And I always remember getting so excited whenever my aunt or parents would tell me and my brother that we would be going to Toys R Us. I still sort of remember the layout of it! I remember that I would get something Sonic The Hedgehog related (because I was obsessed with Sonic The Hedgehog) and my brother would pick either something Pokémon related or a LEGO set.. it was such a good time. And this makes me so so happy to see that Toys R Us is reopening (even if it ends up being just this one flagship store), because a brand new generation of kids get to experience the magic and wonder of going to Toys R Us.

I fondly remember the UK TV ad during the 90s ("there's a magical place, we're on our way there"). I used to think the shop came alive during the night and dreamt of going on a midnight toy shopping spree with my parents. I really wanted to go into the Toys R Us close to where I live, but we only drove past it as there were other shops closer that sold toys. I did get to finally go into it as an adult not long before its bankruptcy to buy my nephew a birthday gift. That branch of Toys R Us infamously became a location of an illegal rave right after its closure. Not so magical as a grown-up. Fortunately, we do still have the oldest and biggest toy shop, Hamleys, and now the chain Smyths.
