The ToysRUs kids grew up obtained adult money and can now buy things at ToysRUs. Full circle.

Adults buying toys they wanted as kids is literally a documented economic behavior, "nostalgic consumption" drives billions annually.

The "kidult" economy is completely reshaping retail. Grown adults buying lego, trading cards, and collectibles out-spent parents enough to reverse a decade of decline. Massive move

On one hand, maybe Hasbro will finally do exclusives with someone other than shitass Target. On the other hand, this’ll be the same story all over again. Adults’ll get all the cool widgets while actual kids are pushed out of their own hobbies and given screen addictions instead.
