Their saving grace should've been a wider range, but it always seems that they have the same old stock for a long time and only a smattering of new stuff that goes quickly, leaving the old wave one stuff behind. (The Tf Movie affect!)
Another baby chain - Bubs Baby Shops - which operated in QLD and NSW went into liquidation in late 2017.

I also found TRU lacked regular restocks of lines such as Marvel Legends. They always have the same old figures shelf-warming. Restocking of LEGO products seemed pretty frequent, though. Recently they dropped the regular price of smaller LEGO $15.99 (RRP) sets to $12.99 which was surprising but welcome.
