With Toys R Us gone this is definitely a good time for them to make a comeback.  There's definitely a market for at least one brick-and-mortar specialty toy store in my opinion.

On your reply, I will venture to where Toys'R Us were here, to see if there is anything significant happening.

We have two retail store in the UK, The Entertainer and Smyths, and the two are good replacements in the high street, but will be put to the test over the holiday season.

But the general thing is that many people now prefer to buy online, have the goods delivered to home or work, and that is the cause of the death of the high street stores.
