Because they are the only physical store that still actually sells toys.

Secondly, exclusive collector's toys is what is keeping them in business.

Gave Fury/Dogold a repaint/touch-up to be more screen accurate. His sword still needs paint though

Because without Toys R Us we wouldn't have ANY Legacy items. Even if you don't live near a store you can order it from their website - shipping is free.

What about Wal Mart?

TRU.ca has no Legacy items except the overpriced Titanus. And if I wanted to go through TRU.com, It'd be $140. It's rad, but not that rad.

Walmart still sells toys? All 15 Walmarts I go to have not restocked their shelves of anything since... Sept. Even their Transformers and Power Rangers sections are quite barren. They didn't even have the Fall SMF line up.

They sell more than TRU does. I mean, I can at least go to Wal Mart. TRU has all be evaporated from my region. And the online store has nothing at all. TF-wise I think they have one or two new Combiner Wars figures at jacked prices. There used to be a small TRU outlet in the city, but that closed. Probably because it never had anything.

You act like TRU is better at stocking shelves than Wal Mart, when I think they're almost worse. (and that's saying something)

It all depends. Distribution has gotten sloppy all across the board, and if you live in an area that's not immediately adjacent to a major city, you may as well either give up hope of finding anything at brick and mortar and just go online, or bite the bullet and travel further. And even then you're not guaranteeing anything.

Well, there was that West coast dock strike, but it's over now, so maybe in a few weeks things will pick up.
