Subject: Toys R Us - Down but not Out

Written By: LyricBoy on 10/05/18 at 12:34 pm

Latest news is that the secured creditors of the legendary toy store are looking to resurrecting the brand.  Apparently the bankruptcy auction did not yield any serious offers.



A positive sign is that Geoffrey the Giraffe made a showing at a recent Dallas toy show.

Lets hope they can pull this off.  8)

This was all a ploy for them to sell off a bunch of old toys.
