The store in Guro is nice. Lots of toys. I heard another is opening in COEX mall. Anyone seen it there yet? Anyone know if Hard Rock Cafe is open by they way?

Sorry, forgot to post this, but here goes...

I went to the new ToysRUs in Guri a week or so back and was very impressed. I'm not sure if it was still in grand opening mode or not, but the store had cosumed characters walking around and a very nice spit shine on the floors. In fact, I'd hazard to say it was one ofthe nicest ToyRUs I've ever been in.

It may not be as bigas the ones in NA, and it may be a little light on the action figures and such, but it has oodles of baby stuff and a very cool vibe throughout.

Does it actually stock Western toys? There's a severe lack of Superhero action figures (of the non Sentai variety, that is) in most department stores here.

Ah, they had some DC TIMM type heroes there. And some Spiderman blasters and cars and stuff.

But nowhere near the walls of action figures I would have liked to see. (but massive amounts of robots though)
