Oh my.
That’s a lot to be toy boned up about. Can’t lie that the Mandalorian and the game kind of have my attention more than 9, though any TVC 9 stuff has me curious too. Love me some midnight madness with friends but without TRU I kind of wonder how this plays out? Locally only TRU ever had its **** together.
Walmart was Walmart. And Target had a fraction what TRU ever put out. Kinda curious how this is gonna go now.

Same here except for the TFA fiasco. Still, TRU made it a big deal: gave freebies (T-Shirt and posters) to those that came out at midnight (I guess Target had the drawing for the huge Porg, right?). I'll miss having an "event" to go to.
Perhaps the rumors of TRU's rebirth might come to fruition and we'll have that fun again. Then again, TRU's big event usually meant they bought three times as much stock of wave 1 than its competitors and you'd never see later waves there...
Nicklab:
TRU Kids might be a player in time for the Episode 9 line launch. There was the press release earlier in the week, and now there’s a Geoffrey mascot parading around the Javits Center for Toy Fair today. This might be a lot more likely to happen than the KB Toys relaunch that never got off the ground.
Darth_Anton:
Missing TRU already. Don't know where me and my buddies are going to camp out.
