Kid- “Hey mom can we go to that cool toy store” parent-“sure tomorrow”

I love how the sign still lights up!

I used to shop in this store - I worked in Highland Park almost 15 years ago and went there a few times to buy Christmas and birthday gifts for my nieces. I don't remember it being very busy those days, but seeing it empty like this is sad. They all used to have so much life and energy in them!

I didn’t expect to see an abandoned toys r us video from WallieB26, But here it is. Cool abandoned find Wallie!

Oh wow. I did this one about a year ago and got inside. I'm glad I got to see your take of it. I didn't know the police department was right there LOL

Wow! Crazy how the signs are still there, let alone lighting up 6 years later! Cool video Wallie!

Great video! Super cool! Can’t believe the sign is still up.

My childhood toys or us was in gurney mills IL

Awesome Video Wallie thanks for sharing buddy :D

Hey Wallie! So I was driving around Davenport Iowa and I saw an abandoned Walmart. It was like a 90's style one. Its right by a Sams Club that is still active. I just thought that I would share that to you because you are in the Illinois area. I hope you visit it.

12:02 Great Job!! JUST SLAP SPIRIT HALLOWEEN OVER THE TOYS R US SIGN!!!!

Wow Awesome I love amazing Videos of all time favorite Abandoned Toys R us. It's pretty cool find Wallie.

Haven't seen a toys r us sign and actually still lights up, wow!!!! Thanks for sharing brother

Great to see a Toys R Us store again.

Bro my grandma used to take me to this exact toysrus and than I just see this casually on my recommendation 😭

The former Jackson, TN Toys R Us location is now an Auto Zone .

Hello, Wallie! My name is Brad and I live in Wrentham, Mass., which is just under an hour southwest of Boston. First of all, I started watching your videos about a month ago because they allowed me to relive my youth when I went shopping at two fantastic stores, Toys "R" Us and Ames. The closest Toys "R" Us for me was in Bellingham, Mass. off Interstate 495 and the closest Ames was on Route 140 in the neighboring town of Franklin, Mass. I always used to buy Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars and playsets, as well as Nickelodeon VHS tapes/DVDs from both places. Those were great times when I used to go with my father and we'd go bargain hunting $ 🙂$. Also, this video, in particular, is so cool because my father used to work as a pharmacist for Osco Pharmacy 😀 for Shaw's, a New England supermarket chain, which is also a subsidiary of Albertsons. Keep up the great work and I look forward to more videos 👍. Thank you!

Good video! You don't see too many abandoned Toys R Us around, The one, that I used to go to, was made into a Burlington clothing store!

Still lights up! 😍🥹Awesome! Those are even rarer! Great find dude!

Fun fact: This location oddly got newer 2011/2012 decor meant for remodeled/newer locations (E.g. Cashiers, Banners, Displays, Walls)

Wow this video is amazing

Love your videos, bud!!! Remember me, when I commented and you favorited it about a year ago?

I love abonded places

My childhood…. Is gone. Or is it. Thank you soooo much for showing this wonderful video this means a lot to me. I don’t want to grow up.

One of the best abandoned places I have found so far, I check it when I’m in highland park

That abandoned toys r us still has it's letters at the top lol thanks for sharing this Wallie. Awesome 😎👍

As always great video 👍

awesome

Lots of Abandoned buildings in Barboursville & Huntington, WV. Walgreens- 1st St & 4th Ave, Huntington Aldi- Adams Ave, Huntington, WV Toy R Us- Barboursville, WV Old McDonald’s- 1st Street & 4th Huntington Stationer’s- 6th & 6th Ave, Huntington, WV Old Glenn’s Sporting Goods- 11th St & 4th Avenue, Huntington

That looks very much like the Old Toys R Us in Beavercreek Ohio(at 2626 North Fairfield Road) but without the small "Kids R Us" sign to the bottom right of the main sign.

Highland Park Illinois is where a tragic shooting took place at a Fourth of July Parade.

Great video Wallie

It was a Spirit Halloween at one point

Crazy that the signs still light up! I love it though. A bit comforting and a piece of nostalgia even if we "tru"ly know it isn't in business anymore. Still a great video, love the tiles and thanks for the images at the end! I loved the one of the boy smiling with a vintage (?) Geoffrey!

WallieB26, really enjoyed your awesome abandoned Toys"R"Us video! Long time no see! Wish I could meet you and Kayla if y'all ever come through Oklahoma going to Texas!

Wow 👌 awesome 👌 video ❤

Dang that’s a good one.

Love you videos

I loved this. It gives me memorys about my early years. Thanks! I don't know about you but I really really miss toys r us and honestly the new toys r us is not the same. What do you remember about toys r us? I remember a lot because we used to go there all the time.

I liked this even before I watched it!!! Cool 😎 🆒️

I know you probably get sick of hearing it but… John and Kate plus 8? 😂 Love your work brother Wally .. 🎉🎉🎉😜🎊🍾keep up the great work 🎉

Check out the abandoned toys r us in Rochester, Minnesota

I remember my dad and I would shop at Toys R Us for the latest diecast toy cars as often as possible. My parents would shop Toys R Us (as well as KB Toys) for other toys too like Legos, Playmobile and dolls. I don't remember my mom or sisters going to T.R.U. as often as my dad and I went. Great memories though! 🙂

Just in case you didn't know the white settlements Toys r Us that you covered is now a Boot Barn so take care

Spooky the lights on the front letters are still on

I can't believe it's 2024 and the sign is still up/lit up at night

Their was an abandoned Carson’s in Chicago ridge, Illinois. I don’t know if it’s still their.

well the location that was in lynnwood washington got turned into an Ashley homestore furniture store sadly. thing is they are devolving the area around the mall. the old sears became an apartment building. a dave and busters went in on one part of the apartment building. also one part of the parking lot to the mall got a shake shack. there is something going on with the old credit union there but idk what since i moved before the shake shack opened and the work on the old credit union was going on .

Fun video lol

I laughed pretty hard when you said aerostar and then I was like and my head that's a freestar then you corrected it lol 🤣 Also that's a pretty sweet Toys r Us it's cool that the sign is still partially lit what's left of it

U should do a abandoned video of fairway in Dollar general Sauk village Illinois and the two stores is right next to each other please

wow, still abandoned.

Don't quite know how much longer that could be considered as "abandoned", I heard Toys-R-Us is working on making a comeback.

I'm shocked to see this tbh. SOOOOO many have been replaced. I don't think there is any TRU within 200 miles of me in Cheyenne, WY that's abandoned. A couple BRU's MAYBE, but that's it.

Indicative of the decay of the country. The values , the priorities

🎶There Will Always Be A Toys R Us Store🎶

Not too far from me well maybe a bit further Saw some one else check out an abandoned tru getting inside A few things left behind and some trashed toys in the back

I miss it inuse work another pet store around the corner from that

Here in Canada they still exist along with BabiesRus, one in my old childhood shopping centre just recently took over a Bed Bath & Beyond last spring or summer Although I never really found them interesting as a kid they are pretty cool though

There’s a babies rus in hurst Texas it still abandoned and next to it there was a toys rus

i wonder who is paying for the sign to light up all the years later

Can you do the abandon rite Aid in greengate pa

Like the one in Canton Ohio.

Maybe it will open for 2024 holiday season 🤔.

Go back.

Can you do the abandoned babies. Rus in Burbank il
