As a kid, the toy store I loved was World of Toys on the corner of 140th and Bel Red Rd. They had everything. Saw Paul Silas in there and got his autograph. They had all the Star Wars figures and ships. AFX race sets. Tyco and Lionel Train sets. Cox rockets. Tons of dinosaur stuff.
I always wanted a big ass boombox. Never got it. Instead, I got a Panasonic radio with a tape deck which I still have to this day. It is the garage radio now. It takes batteries or you can plug it in. it is missing the rewind button, but I don't care. Thinking back, those big ass boombox needed a ton of batteries.
Back when it first opened, it seemed like The Locker Room sold high end stuff, like fancy NFL jerseys and helmets. I always kind of wanted one of those fancy jerseys. Instead, I got the Sears catalog version that had the team name and the #.
