Report - Toys R Us - Milton Keynes June 2024

[kcajboty]

An old one,

I could not find many photos however it is 100% worth a look.
I mangaed to find a route after years of it being abandoned and it was in perfect condition.


History:
Toys R Us in Milton Keynes had a significant history, marked by both popularity and eventual closure, with a recent resurgence. The store in the Grafton Gate area was a large and well-known location. Toys R Us in the UK went into administration in 2018, leading to the closure of all its UK stores, including the one in Milton Keynes

I used to go here as a kid so coming back was quite sad however it was a great explore

Inside the boxes were loads of left over stock.
This was all there was to toys r us.... I wish I could find more photos however it was an amazing explore
If I managed to find more photos I will update this thread! (Or create a new one)

Thank you for reading !

I assumed it would have just been a gutted shell but that's actually pretty interesting.

Glad this mob went bust, must have been terrible to work for them, one was derelict I knew of but became a car dealership.

I drive past a lot. But assumed it would be awful and not worth stopping. Surprised with Whats left if I’m honest.

Loved visiting these as a kid back in the late 90s, seeing these photos really is a saddening sight.

Why must it of been terrible? do you have experience of working for them or know someone who did?
Cant imagine its any different from many high street retailers

No I was referring to @pastybap comment that it must be terrible to work there

Sorry for any confusion to everyone.

As far as big metal boxes go, that's pretty cool
