Yes, visiting the times square location always used to be the highlight of my NYC visit. It reminded me of the toy store showed in home alone 2 (which I watched a lot growing up). Another one which I will miss is the FAO Schwarz store in NYC (which was also owned by Toys R Us).
I feel sad thinking that my son will never experience that joy of going to these huge Toy stores. At best, his experience will be limited to the kids section at Target/Walmart (if they are still around by the time he is old enough to visit them).
- autarch 8y agoThe toy store in Home Alone 2 was based on FAO Schwarz. I remember going to it as a kid a few times. It was very cool and a big NYC attraction for families. But I don't remember if we ever bought anything there.
