Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Founded as Children’s Supermart in Washington, D.C., in 1948, Toys R Us became a toy retailer after Charles P. Lazarus opened the first Toys R Us store in Rockville, Maryland, in 1957. The brand’s journey through expansion, store closures, and new retail chapters makes a small keepsake a meaningful link to a much larger story. This double-sided keychain charm suits collectors, longtime fans, and anyone who wants a daily reminder of toy-store memories.
Founded in April 1948 by Charles P. Lazarus in Washington, D.C., the business began as Children's Supermart, a baby-furniture retailer. In June 1957, Lazarus refocused it on toys and opened the first Toys R Us in Rockville, Maryland. Acquired by Interstate Department Stores in 1966, the chain grew across the United States and expanded into Canada and Britain in the mid-1980s. A 2005 leveraged buyout by Bain Capital, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts, and Vornado Realty Trust made it privately owned. The company filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States and Canada in September 2017; its remaining U.S. stores closed in June 2018. In January 2019, global intellectual property excluding Canada transferred to Tru Kids, which relaunched retail activity. WHP Global acquired a controlling interest in Tru Kids in 2021 and arranged a Macy's store-within-a-store rollout beginning in 2022. Standalone and flagship stores also returned, including locations at American Dream in New Jersey and Mall of America in Minnesota. The brand's history also includes related businesses such as Babies R Us and Kids R Us.
