OMG!!! Two Guys was the BEST!!!!
There was one that we went to back in the 70's located in Cheektowaga, NY. It's now the site of a Wegman's grocery store.
I absolutely LOVED going to Two Guys. At Christmas time I swear that 1/2 the store was toys! It probably wasn't 1/2 the store but seemed like it to me as a kid. My Mom & stepdad would take me and my best friend along and as soon as we got through the doors we went straight to the toy section and didn't see Mom until it was time to go. Can't do that nowadays, your kids will get kidnapped and killed by psychos.
I do remember all the Megos & GIJoe stuff piled high on the shelves. The TG's that we went to must've been in a crappy area (not too far from city line of Buffalo) because I remember tons of stuff being opened up but that just made it cooler to see what stuff was like out of the box.
Don't blow me in but I also remember helping my friend change price stickers on the Mad Monsters (boxed) because he didn't have enough money to buy them otherwise. I seem to recall marking them down to like a dollar or something each!
Somehow I got screwed and never got my Mad Mummy. Only the other 3.
I do remember getting a Supervator for Christmas and it had been waaaaay discounted (another cool thing about TG's. They MARKED stuff DOWN!) I seem to recall it was maybe $4, if that much. I really have no idea what happened to that playset. Must've been one of the things I had to give away when we moved to AZ.
Ahhhhh, the good old days! I miss Two Guys!!
