Toys "R" Us/Babies "R" Us/Kids "R" Us

[TRU7536]

hi caldor99, those two TRU's you took pics of, off I-95 . the first one is TRU of Norwalk and the second is of Milford. Milford has the funny looking star, that is when they first came out with it. The milford store is mad old and a little ghetto. I saw their breakroom, way old school TRU, looks really nice.

and hears anouther one on I 95
Caldor1999 has attached this image:

IT does not look old to me (or at least it doesn?t, since the picture only shows the side) WHAT DID THE FRONT LOOK LIKE? I thought the funny looking star was new? Was the store old school looking? it was hard to tell.

Two Days ago I went to the TOYs r us in Swansea MAss. The store was big. Where it  says Toys R us was blue, instead of the old school brown, and under where it said Toys R
us was white, instead of the old school rainbow colors at the bottom, and it says Children's bargainland in whitelettering, intead of the old school orange. And where there is the exit of the store, it was yellow (It looked like it was repainted). IT looks like they had not changed the store by much. The store was right near the Swansea Mall. IT is store 7512.

This is the Toys r us in Milford CT Right??? It just does not look old. BY the way, I guess I will never see a TOys r us with brown again. A lot of them have been remodeled!!!! and they were thriving more when Child WOrld closed in 1992 and started to go down like in 1996 (When they introduced the stores with the blue and glass windows format). I saw the picture of the Toys r us in EAst HAven, I posted it remember? I guess the old looking Toys r us' are around NEW HAVEN (WHICH IS A NASTY AREA FROM WHAT I HEAR, BUT BRIDGEPORT IS WORSE!) and I saw a pictuer of the one in HAmden once and it is blue and has glass windows and the old articles of the new haven paper (you can find them on newslibrary) said it opened in late 1996.

IT is also that way in NAshua NH, and other places, but the Kids r us in Manchester is still VACAnt, maybe becaues there is a STaples in the plaza.

I went to the one in Albany New york across from the COlonie CEnter mall. It was big and had the white design.

I saw a clerk with a name tag say working there since 1978, and I inquired that and she said the store opened in 78, and it got a facelift 10 years ago.
