Remember HMV?
"If you ever wanted a CD or vinyl record in Canada, chances are
you went to one of the retailer's stores. Unfortunately, the
iconic brand closed across the country in 2017. Now it's
getting a second lease on life, but perhaps not how you
expected: at none other than Toys R Us.
"As shared on TikTok by former Cineplex host Tanner Zipchen,
some Canadian Toys R Us locations have spent the past few
months setting up shelf space. "Don't mind the mess. We're
building something awesome!" read the construction signs.

"It's worth noting that while this might seem like an odd
partnership, Doug Putman is the owner of both HMV's parent
company, Sunrise Records, and Toys R Us.
