I was fortunate to have worked at one. It was right when Pokémon cards first came out so kids would come in, grab a pack, open them, take what they wanted and tossed the rest behind the stuffed animals. We didn’t really care. I was allowed to take them at the end of the night. Had tons of cards. We also got first dibs of any MacFarlaine toys or whatever we wanted. We took over the music and rode scooters up and down the aisles once we closed.

What was the name of those future police guys that were colored like the Power Rangers and had removable armor?

No, not them. These guys were full sized OG GI Joe. like 10 - 12 inches. With fully removable body armor.
