Mighty Champions: Action Figure Radio
Mighty Champions: Action Figure Radio is a weekly podcast for action figure collectors who never really stopped playing. They just got more shelves.
Hosted by lifelong collectors Jon Sargent and Christian McGahan, the show covers action figures and collectibles from the 80s, 90s, 2000s, and today, with equal love for vintage classics and modern lines. From WWE, Marvel Legends, and DC Universe Classics to TMNT, Star Wars, G.I. Joe, Power Rangers, He-Man, and beyond, nothing is off the table if it belongs in the toy aisle conversation.
Each episode blends nostalgia, current hobby news, and real collector perspective. The hosts break down new reveals, recent pickups, and major moments in toy history, while also getting into group toy hunts, live drafts, secondary-market chaos, Whatnot sales, convention stories, and the way collecting actually fits into adult life.
This isn’t an instruction manual or a hype machine. It’s a hangout for collectors who’ve been doing this long enough to have opinions, stories, wins, losses, and shelves that tell a story. Sometimes the show goes deep on a single era or toy line. Sometimes it turns into a creative exercise about how and why we connect with these figures in the first place.
If you collect loose, mint on card, or somewhere in between—and if you enjoy talking toys with people who genuinely love the hobby—this is your spot.
New episodes every week.

Ultimate Collectors Countdown (Batman) and the Toy Trust Scale
Which version of Batman stands above the rest in comics, animation, video games, cinema, and Elseworlds? Batman: The Animated Series? Arkham City? Hush? Kingdom Come? We dive deep into our Ultimate Collectors Countdown, picking the definitive version of the Dark Knight in each category and the ultimate action figure that represents him on the shelf.
We also debut a brand-new segment: the Toy Trust Scale, where we rank our trust in certain toy companies and retailers on a scale from 1 to 10. Let’s just say… opinions were strong.
And in breaking toy news, we react to the massive Marvel Legends reveals from this week’s livestream, including:
- Mini Comic wave 2 w/ Beast, Daredevil, Silver Surfer, Phoenix, and more
- Secret Wars Iceman
- The epic Gamerverse Punisher & Nick Fury 2-pack from the Sega Genesis game
Tune in, sound off, and follow us on Instagram @mightychampions to vote on your favorite Batman versions and get a closer look at the figures we picked.
