    The Toys R Us in Times Square is a tourist attraction in itself. I don't know if anyone actually buys any toys here!

    Before you even walk in, notice the changing window advertisements, plastic sheets that just keep on rotating out. As you enter the front doors, you'll see a HUGE Ferris wheel INSIDE the store! Cool! You can buy tickets for the Ferris wheel in the basement area - about $2 each if I remember right. The cars of the Ferris wheel are all toy-related - from Toy Story, Barbie, Hot Wheels, Mr. Potato Head, etc. Fun!

    After your ride, check out the giant Jurassic Park T-Rex, run around inside Barbie's Dollhouse (and see some schmantzy collector Barbies) and then, of course, CANDYLAND! That's why we're here! That's why we came!

    And now that you're on a sugar high, why not take another spin on the Ferris wheel. Wheee!

    Toys, of course. But I'm a big girl, so I go for the sugar. Candyland has all the candies you remember from when you were little. Pop rocks? Got 'em. Ring candy. Yep. Candy necklaces. GIANT Tootsie Rolls. Every possible color of M&Ms. Even Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. Grab a bag and start samplin' (pay for them samples, please). More fun than Hershey's Chocolate World! :)

    This place is so grand, I was surprised they don't charge admission to look at the toys. The Ferris Wheel (ok, so they do charge for that) attracted our attention at first (you'll have to wait in line if you want to ride in the Barbie car), but once inside we explored 3 floors of amazing displays of toys.

    There's a life-size dinosaur whose head and eyes move (and who lets out a roar when you least expect it!), and incredibly intricate lego models (I want to meet the one who puts those together!).

    Kids will love it (no matter how old).

    This is a kid's dream come true...took my nieces and nephews here and they loved it...Of course, being located in Times Square means people traffic but I guess that's why it's the perfect spot. There's a ferris wheel inside the store. Also an almost true to life T-Rex that roars, right out of the movie Jurassic Park. And of course, every toy a kid could ever want. Just bring lots of $$$.

    Check out the Legos, there's a Statue of Liberty lego and Chrysler Building Lego on display...too cool:)

    It's so big. There is a real working Carousel inside as well as a dinosaur that moves and all kinds of neat toys. Much better than your ordinary local Toys R US.

    Toys

    Depends on what you buy. Normal toy prices I think.

    The setting for Toys R Us store in ideal was an ideal location. Its bright, vibrant and huge. The shop was more faced paced than FAO Schwarz but thats no bad thing. It housed a mighty carousel wheel and too see this alone in a toy shop is worth a visit. Apart from the usual toys and games on offer there were some exceptional lego displays to admire. A giant Statue of Liberty, Chrysler Building and Empire State building complete with King Kong looked mighty impressive and you could only stand and admire. There was also a huge Monopoly board on one of the walls. It truly is a great store and i only wish i took some more money

    Where FAO Schwarz had more one off and origional items on offer Toys R Us was more commercial selling action figures and popular games throughout the store. My girlfriend bought me a basketball and baseball figure.

    You can buy items from a couple of dollars up to $500 dollars depending on how much you want to spend

    Toys R Us is definitely worth a look if you're in the Times Square area...it's a huge building with lots of toys (of course!) and also a ferris wheel inside the building and heaps of things to see...

    We didn't actually buy anything there but lots of people were spending lots of money there!
