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.

2322. Green Arrow
Green Arrow was a superhero recruited into the Justice League after the Thanagarian invasion largely as the team's political conscience.
After selling his company for three billion dollars,[2] Oliver "Ollie" Queen became a full time vigilante. He learned to master the bow, dressed himself as Robin Hood, developed an arsenal of trick arrows with various functions, and dubbed himself Green Arrow. Like Batman, he also took in and trained a younger protege' named Roy Harper, who would be known as Speedy.
Green Arrow was summoned to enlist in the new expanded Justice League. However, as he failed to reply, John Stewart showed up when he was thwarting a grocery store robbery and teleported him into the JL Watchtower. There, Green Arrow saw the Assembled Superheroes, but he was still skeptical about joining such an organization. His main concern was helping the underprivileged in society which, according to him, tended to be forgotten by heroes whose main goal is fighting super villains and monsters. Batman attempted to persuade him to be the team's conscience, but Green Arrow remained unconvinced. Therefore, he insisted on going with Lantern, Supergirl, and Captain Atom, so that they could drop him off.
