Toys "R" Us Is History!


Your childhood memories are about to come to an end.

Like Saturday Morning Cartoons on the Big Five, your days of childhood are over. Your days of telling mom and dad that you want to go to the toy store are coming to an end.

The world's largest toy store company may close all the stores in the United States taking away 15 to 25% of the toys sold.

Toys R Us was the one place a child would go to buy toys and games. It was the place where you don't want to grow up. Now it's on the verge of collapse.


Toys R Us is going out of business. Will you miss it?

Of course I will. It was a part of my childhood.
No. There's other places that sell toys and games.
Amazon offers better deals.


Corporate executives are debating whether they continue the bleeding or just let it die. Now if it goes into the Chapter 7 bankrupcy, it will begin liquidation and the formal closing of its stores.

This could affect Hasbro, Mattel, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, LEGO, Bandai, LG, The North Face and Jakks Pacific.

This could have an impact on Walmart, Target, Kroger and other big box stores.

While Donald J. Trump touts jobs, jobs, jobs, those affected by the imminent closing of Toys R Us will be out of jobs.

The gift cards and perks are going to end soon. The demise will hurt your childhood.

I have a 19 month old son who will never have an opportunity to experience what it's like to be a Toys R Us kid.

Any thoughts?
