If there ever was a place that haunted my dreams as a child, it is this store. This commercial aired during Force Five, Starblazers, and Battle of the Planets in the late 70s - early 80s. I begged my parents to take me but they never did. I did get Shogun Warriors for Christmas, but it was only as an adult did I find out that my parents went there to shop for me but never took me. "We would never get you out of that store," they said.
There are lots of great stories about this store floating around. Stories of anguish (Mason, I am looking at you), stories of Joy. Stories of their going out of business sale, and the downstairs room, where only a select few were allowed to enter.
If you have any Mr. Big Stories, why not leave them in the comments section? Pretty Please?
