A Peru comic book fan’s collection of 1,548 pieces of memorabilia related to Marvel hero Iron Man earned him a Guinness World Records title.
Miguel Andrés Javier told Guinness World Records his first Iron Man item was an action figure he bought second-hand in 2007, and the release of the first Iron Man film the following year inspired him to accumulate more items.
Javier›s collection now includes 1,548 pieces, including action figures, statues, books, DVDs, clothing items, backpacks and more.
The collector said he appreciates Iron Man›s sense of humor and intelligence, as well as the hero›s human flaws, such as his arrogance and inflated ego.
He said collecting Iron Man items allowed him to form connections with other fans.
