Current Events > I've finally seen the GameStops with the dreaded full walls of collectibles

(+) Yeah! (+)

before even going in there were more posters in the windows for toys than video games, and when I did there was some of the absolute most inane bullshit like 8-bit renditions of characters from Bob's Burgers on a T-shirt or stuffed animals of apparently a one-off character from Rick & Morty or blind bags that you don't even know what they are because the box is in Japanese and frankly it made me feel sick looking at it all for some reason

one of them had Gundam models which I wasn't expecting

Someone's gotta take over for Toys R Us.

They need to sell something as games become more and more digital.

Smart move on Gamestops part. I'd never buy that trash but I sure as hell know people are buying it as gifts for their kids over $60 video games.

I enjoy looking at some of the products, but I never buy them, with the exception of the Pokmon map puzzles. I found them at another store though, so I dont really care if GameStop has them or not.

Games are less profitable for them now, so they gotta branch out >_>
