Toys “R” Us Mug
A defunct brick-and-mortar toy store that opened in June 1957 in D.C. They had a million toys at Toys “Я” Us that I could play with. From bikes, to trains, to video games, it was the biggest toy store their was. Its hay day was in the 80s, when it dominated the toy industry. Toys “Я” Us started to decline in the late 90s, when online websites such as Amazon were launched and sold toys more conveniently and at a lower price. Charles Lazarus, the store’s founder, sold it to Bain Capital and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts, along with the real-estate firm Vornado Realty Trust in 2005, for $6,600,000,000. Many people mark this as Toys “Я” Us’ official beginning of the end. The purchase meant that the toy chain was now $5,000,000,000 in debt, and struggled to pay it off for the next 12 years. On September 18, 2017, Toys “Я” Us filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection, hoping to turn around the business. However, after a horrible holiday season in sales and the debt problem not improving, on March 14, 2018, Toys “Я” Us announced it would liquidate all 735 of its US stores by the end of June. Finally, on Friday, June 29, 2018, at 9:00 P.M., the last stores were locked up for good. The beloved toy chain was officially gone.

I love this mug with a burning passion in my heart, I have purchased 7 of these mugs and intend to continue. This mug has changed my life for the better
it's the best mug of the world !!!!!
wow! this mug is so thoughtful to giving to my wife!
The description tells nothing but facts. 5 stars instant
Your description is right on, except in 1989 I named my daughter Kallen Mikel (www.kallenmikel.com/original-art). I thought I made up the name, but apparently, it originated as a boy's name in Greek and Hebrew. I first found this out in 2001 when I was traveling to Finland. In the 'tube food' section in a big Finnish supermarket there it was, a royal blue tube of salmon paste with a blonde-haired boy named Kallen! So now I have discovered that there are many Kallen's of both sexes. I want to buy her a cup, but it has 'him' on it. Is there any way you can make that a unisex description for both sexes? Just askin'. Being a Barbara (Barbs) myself ... a 'cake eater' from Edina, MN I had to ask ... haha ;-)
Thank you for the mug. It arrived fast and exceeded my expectations.
