The storied retailer is bringing Toys R Us back in the form of “in store stores” at 400 Macy’s locations.  8)

It’s too bad that the Macy’s that was near where I live shut down a couple years ago.  :\'(

Could increase foot traffic - a great move perhaps?  I welcome seeing toys back in brick-and-mortar spots especially for the holidays.

I imagine that’s what Macy’s is thinking.

No Macy's here, but we still have many an empty warehouse store still bearing the Toys R Us logo.

I still shop at Toys R Us.  The ones in Canada are owned by a different corporation and operate independently, so they never closed.  As a collector of action figures and video games, it's one of my favourite stores.  It does get awkward sometimes during the holiday season when I am looking at the toys, and someone will come up to me, and think I am shopping for my kid and I don't want to be like "I don't have kids.  I'm shopping for me because I am a geek in his 40s" LOL

I used to shop In The late 80's and early 90's when they had video games for sale at a cheap low price.
