If a place like Walmart goes out of business that'd be a major blow. Plus more and more manufacturers are shifting their focus to online shopping giants like Amazon. |
I don't buy much there anymore but I can't help stopping in at least once a week on my way home from work. I grew up with the place. When I was a kid we didn't have Walmart in my state, and they always had the best selection of Transformers, Legos and video games.

Simple solution to this is 4 million people going in and spending 100 bucks. 400 million debt gone

Guess I'll have to hurry and see if local TRU has any Bandai toys. I couldn't find any of their stuff in other stores in my area...

NECA, DST, Black Series, Banda's Legacy, Barbies, will have a huge problem then. You think christmas time, you will find anything? You think Amazon will lower the price of toys if TRU is gone? You sir are in the wrong, if you think you have other options like you do now. Ideally when something folds, another store will take its place, but in the reality we live in, the answer is no. Physical stores might go under and Amazon will simply compete less. Less discounts on those toys we love. Be thankful it is the babies r us. But sad to see the PR movie failed. I saw it and it sucked. They should have, 20/20 vision just did an alternate retelling of the original MMPR or maybe even tell the original Japanese version. Instead this insane version where everyone has a criminal record and tries to virtue signal. Maybe they should have been daring, and gasp, use actors in suits and eliminate the awful CGI. Whoever made that movie needs to go. The animation studio, the writers and concept artists. This had such a Michael Bay Transformers feel, and that is not a compliment. |

Malls think that is the solution so piggyback off that idea. Perhaps hire a TRU Santa...in face stop the happy holidays slogan and celebrate like it's Christmas and not X-Mas. |

KB Toys going under had very little effect on domestic retail in the long run because it was very narrow in product to begin with. If super markets like Walmart start going under that'll be the true death kernel for domestic retail. You are aware that all of those manufacturers sell though digital stores like Amazon as well and more and more are starting to see online sales as more important then domestic retail ones? Of course it will, it's primary competition is Best Buy and Walmart both of which have sizable online stores themselves and other online retailers. Funny that you mention lowering prices though because going by that article one of Toys R Us' problems is it's refusal to slash prices to compete with Amazon and Walmart. Physical stores won't go under as long as they're more convenient to buy food and clothes from. EDIT: Thought you were talking about the domestic retail industry not toys specifically. Still that seems to be slowly focusing more on online retail anyway so I don't see Toys R Us as the huge loss you do. |
