After years of struggling to survive as a brick and mortar store, Toys "R" Us filed for bankruptcy earlier this year, ultimately closing nearly of all of its hundreds of locations. While the company was prepared to auction off its brand name and intellectual property, the company's controlling lenders revoked their plans and announced that they intended to revive the company in some fashion.

Recent years have seen a rise in online retailers, with customers leaning on the convenience of services like Amazon that allow consumers to purchase goods for reasonable prices from the comfort of their home. This forced Toys "R" Us to raise their prices, causing even more consumers to embrace online shopping.

Following the announcement that the store was closing, users on social media shared their fond memories of the store and the joys of being able to browse what seemed like endless aisles of toys. Now that reports claim the store could make a comeback, social media users once again shared their hope for the brand.
