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.

2999. Coke Penguin
Coca Cola has a polar bear theme going in its advertising. Their most recent ad, however, has the polar bears interacting with penguins. Penguins, of course, live in the Antarctic, not the Arctic where the polar bears live. Still -- why let geography get in the way of a good party?
A bear family is woken by the sounds of a party accompanied by the Beach Boys tune, “Little Saint Nick”. A cub slips down the hill into a group of dancing Emperor penguins enjoying the domino effect. There’s an icy standoff until a small penguin appears and offers the cub a bottle of Coca Cola. The text: “Give. Live. Love.”
