It started out as a simple hobby when, lo and behold, I realized I have just accumulated 20,000 distinct toy characters in my collection... and the number is still growing. This blog is a great space to share to others just how amazing some of these characters are especially the ones that may have been forgotten or perhaps even those deemed insignificant. Visit Percy's World of Toys as often as you can and witness how the list progresses right before your eyes. Enjoy.

1850. Dejah Thoris
Dejah Thoris (Tarzan: The Epic Adventures/Trendmasters)
The only female in a very extensive line of toys. Probably too extensive. She's John Carter's wife and a Princess of Helium. According to Trendmasters she's a "master of the deadly arts of war!" How unexpected. That's a Dejah view ;-) on the left. Like most female mistresses of war, this princess wears hardly anything to battle. But what a great tan.
Seriously, though. Trendmasters could have cut the total number of figures (nearly twenty) and variations and done much better by collectors and Burrough's fans. And where's the posability in these toys? Dejah has one point of articulation, her right arm swivels a wee bit at the shoulder. Unacceptable!
