What a success story of the ages!

So Percy’s Playhouse opened up under a FreddysPlus location by John Johnson, featuring some very creative choices of animatronic shell material; translucent plastic with glitter inside of it. There’s even some internal lighting to truly make the glitter stand out.

Exclusive to this location would be the Pal Percy toys, small Tamagotchi-like toys with LED screens where you can feed and play with a tiny little version of Percy. These would later be recalled when the circuitry caused the little machine to emit an ear-piercing screech late at night. Always late at night.

As is the case with many small FreddysPlus locations, there’s an eb and flow with how these buildings open up with massive success before closing down due to lack of profits. Percy’s Playhouse followed this flow, and soon the staff was limited to only have one technician available.

When that technician was terminated, the animatronics would slowly break down as the owner pondered what would be in store for his next venture. With heavy heart, the animatronics were put up to be sold.

With the profits gained from the sold assets, Johnson could manufacture little tiny collectible figures called… Percy Pals. They looked just like the characters of the restaurant, though squished down and are simple plastic printed molds. There were even some new characters added to fill up the possible figures to collect.

You know, at first the Percy Pal deal started with Johnson’s local supermarket, but it soon spun out of control where you could get a Percy Pal bag across the United States, soon crossing over into other countries. People were especially ravenous for the mythical “Golden Mutt”, of which only 5,000 were manufactured.

While the hype has died down in current years, there’s still a dedicated Percy fanbase and bids for any rare Percy Pals reach ludicrous prices. Some of the bids for the First Wave of Percy Pals somehow reach over $600 if you’re lucky.

Hell, some of the sold animatronics, previously bought by minigolf and children’s venues, later found its way to collectors and remain maintained if the pictures on their social media’s are to be believed.

I’d say John Johnson is living pretty well after splintering off of FreddysPlus.

People also want me to talk about that one “true event” where the Pal Percy toy came to life and took over Percy Poodle causing him to turn grey to be your best friend forever, but 1: That’s too fantastical to be true, and 2: Sounds way too much like a creepypasta. Go back to the Haya.exe fanbase to you, folk!
