Very limited time-travel question

[Mikey]

If you could go back in time to any store you want and grab 1 shopping cart full of stuff in less than 1 hour --- then you're slingshotted back to the future .......

What store would you pick ?

What year ?

Mine would be Rockaway Sales (local dept store)

1976

The Kmart on Macon Road, Columbus, GA. Late 1974

A local place in Brooklyn called Bargain Town/buyrite 1974.....2nd floor filled with Mego goodness always well stocked I'd clean them out if i could.....

In those days. It would have to be the defunct Childrens Palace. As a kid I never got to get inside but imagine it was packed with Mego goodness. I know there was one in Monroeville PA. But I could find out its location.
PS with my luck. I'd slingshot back but the toys would remain in thier timeline.

Gemco in San Leandro, Ca...circa 1977.

Nothing but Megos, my friend...

I never got to go to Toys R Us in the 70s. I would dream what it would be like though. So I think for me, Toys R Us, '73 or '74.

[thunderbolt]

some newstand in 1938 and grab every copy of Action Comics number 1.

[The Toyroom]

Rome Bargain Center or Grandway and stock up on all of the RC Batmen...

Yeah, I think along those lines, too. I'll say the Petit or Durand-Ruel gallery in Paris around 1885, to load up the impressionist paintings.

^^ Or like, just clean out Tiffany's in Manhattan.
