Percival R. Lugue was awarded a Guinness World Record for owning the “largest collection of fast food restaurant toys,” in 2014.
At the time, Lugue had 10,000 plastic tchotchkes—already a frightening number of tiny, faintly greasy-smelling objects to pack into your living space. Now, apparently encouraged by Guinness’s recognition to continue his valiant quest, Lugue has accumulated more than 20,000 fast food toys and built a second home that he’s dubbed the “Happy Meal House.”

His collection has grown so big over time that Lugue and his family ended up building a “separate house for his toy collection” whose design, he thought looked like a Happy Meal box.
The “Happy Meal House,” as Lugue calls it, is packed with a variety of toys that he says are “basically like a tapestry of my life.”
