      from OCT 21, 2025

      Toys “R” Us filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2017 and by 2018, the toy retailer announced the closure of more than 700 stores throughout the U.S. Over the years, Toys “R” Us attempted comebacks under new ownership but none have proven successful. Most recently, the retailer opened a flagship location in Minnesota’s Mall of America in 2023, which remains open.
