Ever since I was young I thought this has to be the worst toy store ever. In the movie they act like its a kid's dream store, But I always thought it looked more like an arts and crafts store with nothing a kid would actually want to play with (at least for me at that age). Just a random thing that always bugged me.
shareAgreed! Where are the G.I. Joes, Transformers and Nintendo games!
To see the only real monster, one must only look in the mirror.
I thought it looked fabulous when I was younger. In fact, when I went to FAO Shwartz, I was quite disappointed to find out that it WASN'T the same as the store in the movie.

In 1992 I was about Kevin age 10 years old. I never went to New York and seen Duncan Toy Chest store to what else is in the store, but from the movie it look like a bunch of toys for kids under from maybe 5 on down. I'm a female but at 10 I still played with barbies somewhat I probably would have been interested in the video games like game boy or sega.
shareI always wanted that candy dollhouse Marv was hiding in, except I wanted it to be real, lol!
shareThough to be fair, it's probably because they actually filmed that scene in the real FAO Schwarz.
I always felt the same way about Duncan's Toy Chest. It looks more like an antique shop than an actual toy store.
Lol, I totally thought so too as a kid. To me it looked more like a toy museum than a toy store. None of the stuff in there looked interesting, in fact because it was Christmas season, it looked more like a store you go to to get decorations. :P
