Toys 'R' Us Opens 2 MI Stores In Time For Holiday Season

Seven years after Toys "R" Us shut its doors, the classic superstore is back in time for the holiday season with two Detroit area locations, according to a news release.

The two standalone seasonal stores are located in at Great Lakes Crossing in Auburn Hills and at Twelve Oaks Mall in Novi, according to the release.

Toys "R" Us plans to open more than 30 new stores, including the two Michigan stores, across the nation this season.

"Following the tremendous success of our Toys 'R' Us flagship stores, we're thrilled to continue expanding through our partnership with Go! Retail Group," said Jamie Uitdenhowen, executive vice president of Toys 'R' Us at WHP Global. "This next phase of growth brings the magic of Toys 'R' Us to even more communities across the country — just in time for the holidays — and delivers the joyful shopping experience that has made us a trusted destination for generations."
