I don’t know which is more exciting, this store report or who it came from…
I actually found this Friday, October 27th, in a North Jersey Toys R Us, the day it was expected to be released…
Chris was at a Toys R Us store this morning looking for the latest 5POA figures to make Randy angry when…
I find this stuff fascinating, so we post here for those interested. Here’s more background into how Toys R Us went down the road to bankruptcy…
Toys R Us filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy on September 18th. It’s been an interesting path to this point, including a complicated relationship with Amazon. Hasbro and Mattel don’t seem too concerned…
After much speculation for quite some time, Toys R Us officially filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy…
The Toys R Us “Great Big Book of Awesome” (formerly known as the “Big Toy Book”) has leaked online and includes some Star Wars deals that might appeal to some of us.
Star Wars gets it’s own 4-page spread mostly devoted to Hot Wheels, Role Play toys, and Air Hogs- whatever those are, but tucked in there is a nice “20% off All 3.75” Figures and Vehicles” deal.
This deal goes into effect on November 1st, so don’t be that jerk who goes into Toys R Us and expects a sale price 6 days early.
I came across this pic on the interwebs today, mentioning what seems to be some sort of contest to win a midnight madness shopping spree at the Toys R Us flagship location in Times Square.
One can only wonder…
According to this article, Toys R Us is not renewing their lease when it comes back up in 2016. Though it isn’t confirmed, it is thought they will be moving to a location still on Broadway, but no longer in Times Square.

While Star Wars product (and perhaps all product) has been hit or miss this early holiday season, the Black Series 6” Wave 5 continues to roll into Toys R Us stores. Click through for the full sized image.
File this under bitter sweet. We received this report of multiple Black Series cases at a Toys R Us in central Massachusetts, but the wave 6 assortment is awful. The last thing stores need is a lot more Yodas. Hopefully the holiday season clears the decks for the good figures next year. Click through for the full sized image.
While the web is awash (including here on Bantha Skull) with reports of new 3.75” Black Series and Rebels figures hitting en masse. I once again draw the booby prize. My trip to Toys R Us uncovered super shampoo bottles.
We’ve got another report of wave 5 of the 3.75” Black Series hitting Toys R Us. This time we have photographic proof. If you need a Ree-Yees or Starsher, you might want to hit up your local TRU. Click through for the full sized image.
While we don’t have an accompanying pic, a faultlessly reliable source has texted in a store report stating that the Black Series 3.75” Wave 5 (Ree-Yees / Starsher) was spotted at Toys R Us. The last two waves seem to be making their way thought the system quickly. Unfortunately it’s only speeding us towards a lackluster wave 6.
