Toys'r'Us lives on because Mattel and Hasbro can't let it die

    In electronics, Best Buy holds the same last-chain-standing mantle after Circuit City and HHGregg disappeared. In books, Borders went belly up, while Barnes & Noble remains. Similarly, KB Toys perished, and Toys "R" Us will likely limp along.

The retailer of last resort, ladies and gentlemen.
