Two years ago on June 29th 2018 all the Toys R Us stores in the U.S. closed forever. Every year since then we have visited this abandoned Toys R Us location and now we are back two years later for the final chapter in the Toys R Us saga. Join me as we wander around this former Toys R Us location and see if we can find any remnants that Geoffrey the Giraffe left behind.

It’s so weird to me, seeing Toys R Us buildings turned into other businesses because there’s an old Toys R Us building that’s been closed for probably close to 10 years now, near where I live and the rainbow tiles are still outlining the door. Nobody else ever moved in

I've never seen such a beautiful cover-up of a sign.... the person who did the PARTS sign needs a raise 100% 😩 so artistically done
2021 Update: They did return with smaller stores featuring interactive experiences, yet thanks to the pandemic, it didn’t last too long. There are now plans for a third shot at the US market, with flagships (possibly like the Times Square store) pop-ups, store-within-a-stores, and small shops at airports. No mention of a return to the original big-box style, nor a return of the interactive stores.
Well we didn't have a Toys-R-Us where I lived as a kid. Not even sure there were any back in those days, I'm old, but sure wish we had one.

In 2014 I would play with shopkins and buy them near Lexington's Toys r us. Though I wish would go back there buut covid-19 snuck up to us and kept us in our own homes so I couldn't get as much shopkins as I could. Though I was a fan of Shopkins during that time but grew out of it overtime. Good memories they were
