Bon-Ton will open toy stores in all of its 186 locations under the FAO Schwarz brand. The Newburgh site will open on Saturday, Nov. 4 and will remain open all year, the Consumerist said.

FAO Schwarz shut down its famous Fifth Avenue store in Manhattan in 2015.

You can expect to see some of the trademark FAO Schwarz toys like the giant piano keyboard mat make their way to the new locations as well.

Just don't expect Tom Hanks to come out and play with you while you're there.
