(Gray News) – Before the holiday season is upon us, Toys R Us could once again open its doors.

The toy chain ceased U.S. operations in 2018 but is expected to open about a half dozen American stores and a website later this year, people close to the matter told Bloomberg.

At 10,000 square feet, the new stores would only be about a third of the size of the old ones. They are expected to include play areas and other experiences.

In an effort to save money, the retailer could opt for a consignment inventory model, meaning the toy makers wouldn’t get paid for the goods until customers buy them.
