It's obviously gone now, and I don't know if they couldn't make a go of it, or they just closed shop. Maybe they moved?
Anyone remember that place? I want it to exist again.

I can smell it in my mind. It smelled like a 70s basement full of every toy you would have wanted from the Consumers/Sears catalogs. They let me in the basement once when it was closing. I was too young and dumb not to buy everything as it would be worth fortunes now. All I got was a few Transformers.
