GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry a piece of 1990s consumer electronics history wherever the day leads. This Incredible Universe Backpack honors the ambitious destination-store chain known for massive showrooms, live demonstrations, and a theatrical shopping experience. From the rotunda-centered layout to the language of scenes, cast members, and guests, Incredible Universe made technology retail feel like an event. A strong everyday pick for collectors, commuters, students, and fans of vanished retail landmarks.
Incredible Universe was an American consumer electronics store chain that operated from 1992 to 1997. Conceived by former Tandy CEO John V. Roach, it was launched as a joint venture between Tandy Corporation and Trans World Entertainment after growth had stalled at Tandy's smaller electronics retail operations and personal computer business. The first two stores opened in Arlington, Texas, and Wilsonville, Oregon. Built as very large destination stores, a typical location combined about 185,000 square feet of sales floor and warehouse space and carried roughly 85,000 items. The concept used theme-park-inspired internal language, calling departments scenes, workers cast members, shoppers guests, and uniforms costumes. Stores centered on a rotunda with demonstrations and presentations, with electronics, computers, software, music, video, and accessory departments around it. Rapid expansion added 15 stores through 1996, but high operating costs and stronger competition hurt profitability. Six consistently profitable locations were sold to Fry's Electronics in 1996; the remaining chain closed or was sold between 1996 and 1997.
