I used to enjoy trips as a kid to toys r us with my parents grandparents. From buying action figures to nintendo,genesis,and SNES games. It was some where id enjoy going and i remember it fondly.

Let's fast forward to now though.... im an adult toy collector with my own son now and for those who know me over in the legends thread. Last time i went to my local TRU looking for a learning toy for my infant son. it was nothing but a big disappointment. Garbage on the floors, items not in the correct places with correct pricing,empty shelves, employees that had miserable faces on and not wanting to be there.as for those hard to find Neca,Mezco,etc. The one i was speaking about had a very small area with a limited amount of items. I think i've only bought one neca item during my last few years of being a collector.

Overall i'll miss the TRU of the late 80s and early 90s. The way TRU has become that is something i definitely WILL NOT miss nor lose sleep over.
