Toys R Us Opening 24 Flagship Stores in 2024

Post by Alpha8472 »

These 24 Flagship stores will open in a deal with Go! Retail Group. The 452 Toys R Us shops at Macy's will remain.

Go! already sold toys, games, and calendars at their larger mall stores.

This isn't Toys R Us. These little spaces do they even have the toy sku count of a Target or Wal Mart?

I saw some Go! stores in malls in pretty big spaces. They are small compared to the original Toys R Us stores, however I would say that they are bigger than the toy shops in Macy's.

Perhaps the Flagship stores will be a little bigger.

I visited the last Toys R Us built by the original Toys R Us in Concord, California when it opened just months before the entire chain shut down. That was by far the nicest Toys R Us I had ever seen.

It was a true Flagship store and a prototype for a new generation of toy stores. It is a shame that they totally gutted it. It was amazing inside. They sold everything at the liquidation sale including the life-size Lego people and the giant robotic dinosaurs inside. If you ever wanted to own your own dinosaur that was your chance.
