While there are currently no plans in place to open any new Toys R Us brick and mortar stores, the website will be the retailer’s only offering as it makes a comeback after four years.

The toy retailer collapsed in 2018 and closed all of its 100 UK branches, before revealing plans for a relaunch in October last year.

The new website features different areas for shoppers to explore, including Pillars of Play – which showcases a selection of carefully curated toys that support child development across a wide range of ages and stages – and The Demo Zone, where toys are put through their paces.

“Toys R Us and Babies R Us are much-loved brands in the UK, and our teams have described this as ‘returning home’, not just a relaunch,” Toys R Us ANZ chief executive and managing director, Louis Mittoni said.
