One of the perks about living in New York is having access to one of the coolest toy stores in the world, Toys "R" Us, located right in the heart of Times Square. Our own Seibertron had the chance to visit this awesome store and he has been kind enough to share pictures. The store features a ferris wheel right in the middle of the store with beautiful toy displays of everything from Legos, G.I. Joe, Wii, the Transformers, and many other major toy brands. If you're a fan of Toy "R" Us, then you have to make sure you stop by this store the next time you're in New York City. Check out 127 images of Toys "R" Us in Times Square by going to the SEIBERTRON.com Events Section.

Oh My God.

That is the most beautiful Transformers section I have ever seen. That is WAY better then the time I went to a Wal-Mart and only found 2 Alternators and 1 Cybertron.

This stores alot of fun! I like bringing my Niece here! granted we can get the same things across town, but the displays are awesome. We both think it's special.

However for quantity and rarity, check out the Toys R Us Toy Worls off 13a on the NJ Turnpike, the place is like 3 floors and endlessly huge! They have everything!

I must say, these NY posts, I am loving right now! Welcome to Evilmus's back yard :grin:

What's with the GI Joe logo, though? Is the 25th anniversary line already.....no wait, that's this summer.

THAT'S FRAKIN' BULLSMACK!!!!! I can't find a friggin' Wii in the greater Chicagoland area, and look at all of those. OOOOOooooohhhhh. :-x

Sorry, burns me up a bit, every where here is totally sold out.

Nice pics, btw.

Given Toys R Us's habit of overcharging, I can't imagine what a Classics Deluxe figure costs in a city already known for its exorbitant prices.

The displays are quite nice, however.

i think i died and went to heaven. those pix r awesome :grin:

. wish i could go there

Yep, been there. Its an impressive store. It was incredibly busy and the staff were about as helpful as they are in any TRU (i.e. not very). I have never been to a toy shop where they offer to take your photo, odd.

I go there just about every month. There's always people taking pictures of that big T-rex. Damn tourists. J/K Great pics Seibs. Ever thought of becoming a phototographer?

I love that Toys R Us. I went there with my uncle back in 2002, so I can't quite remember the TF display (Still hated them then, please don't pelt me with rocks). Is there a pic of the moving King Kong, Mr. Yzquierdo? That and the Chrysler building they had there. I loved those.

But yeah, I can't look at those TF displays without wanting to buy some, especially Soundwave. I hope my girlfriend didn't take it too bad when I rode with my friends and watched the TF Movie on the way to her birthday pary at Forest Park.

TRU Times Square is great. I usually can find good stuff when I go there.

*stares in awe*

That's it! My local TRU better have Soundwave or they're gonna be on a one way trip to Arlington Memorial Hospital!

You're going to put an entire store's staff in hospital if they don't have the toy you want? I think you might need some specialist help.

Are you Chuck Norris? Because only Chuck could take down an entire TRU's employed staff.

:-?

It wouldnt be hard to take down a TRU staff. At least not the one by me.

Let's see,
Nintendo Wii: $300,
Reissue Soundwave x2: $60(?),
Roundtrip airfare to NY tomorrow: $183 (Travelocity)

Impulsive Cross-state shopping spree: $543...

Hmmm...

I saw this then went to my TRU and they suddenly have like 15 Soundwaves?! I'm still glad I preordered mine. I hope all the Soundwaves reach happy homes!
