HERMISTON — A childhood dream is set to become a reality for one local entrepreneur as a new store dedicated to vintage toys and video games prepares to open its doors. Krisstian Jurado has been planning this venture since he was just eight years old, a passion project over three decades in the making.

The store aims to be a destination for collectors and nostalgia-seekers alike, offering a carefully curated selection of classic toys and retro video games from popular consoles. The inventory will focus on items that evoke a sense of shared memory and pop culture history, providing a tangible connection to past decades.

For Jurado, this is more than a business; it's about creating a community hub where generations can connect over the iconic playthings of their youth. He envisions a space where parents can share the characters and games they loved with their own children. The opening represents the culmination of a lifelong ambition to build a welcoming establishment that celebrates the timeless joy of play and collectibles. The community eagerly anticipates the store's launch, ready to rediscover pieces of their own childhoods.
