The World’s Greatest!
Located in midtown Manhattan, if you are in New York City and ask anyone if they know any good toy stores, this is where they will bring you.
At Duncan’s Toy Chest you will find 5 floors of Model Trains, Dolls, Monster Soap, Club Houses, and great toys by Tiger like the TalkBoy.
Be sure to stop in during the holidays for there yearly “Great Christmas Sale”. Every year Mr. Duncan donates all the proceeds from Christmas Eve to a local Children’s Hospital. Usually bringing the donation down to the hospital himself on the day after Christmas.
One of the finer toy dealerships you will visit. At Duncan’s Toy Chest you can play with the toys before deciding to purchase. Most stores prohibit that…
Some people get Duncan’s Toy Chest confused with another Famous New York City toy store, FAO Schwarz. While others swear that the building looks a lot like Chicago’s Rookery Building. Many people know about Duncan’s from a 1992 documentary about a botched robbery of the store by the infamous “Sticky Bandits” (formally known as the “Wet Bandits”).
Be sure to take a moment and look over the beautiful Ornaments they have on hand. They are sure you will find something special.
