Toys R' Us | New Location at Circuit Makati

These days, you’ll never find a toy store adding a new branch to its list in the last five years. But Toys R’ Us in the Philippines just opened a new branch at the Ayala Malls Circuit just outside the CBD at a shopping centre that used to be a horse race track that opened in 2015. The only store they had before was a TRU pop-up store.

Fast forward to December 2023, and they just recently opened an actual store replacing that eight-year-old pop-up location that will cease to exist at the end of this month. For those outside the Philippines, TRU has been consistently opened along with its other Asian counterparts since it is a franchise that operates in this country.

TRU Exclusive | World Peacekeepers

06.18.2019 – In the modern era of toy collecting there’s so much diverse brands and properties out there. From construction toys to superhero theme range of action figures and some would say that’s not enough diversity for you to sink your teeth in. But you’ll be surprised that there are some who are lowkey to the hobby.

Most of these enjoy the casual hobby and are not about the big brands but appreciate the little things. You can say there are action figure collectors out there, but not the ones you expect and most these individuals are old school and then there’s the "World Peacekeepers," a toyline about military figures, vehicles, & sets.

12.05.2010 - Tron Legacy is twelve days away and look what the start of the holiday season has brought us. With the movie's upcoming release the merchandise and other related tie-up to the movie is starting to roll over retail stores.

Disney's agressive marketing machine is in full swing and yes, it's the Tron Legacy toys that has been sighted at one of the major retail stores in Metro Manila that produced the main toyline by Spin Masters.

Another movie themed toy line based on the franchise will surely fly off the toy shelves...
