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.

Power 5 Vehicles Draft & Toy Aisle Time Capsule (1993)
Ep 21 – Power 5 Vehicle Draft & Toy Aisle Time Capsule (1993)
We’re back from the road and we brought the heat. This episode kicks off with a full breakdown of our pilgrimage to Dallas Vintage Toys—a toy hunter’s mecca—and the legendary hauls we scored. Then we time-travel back to Fall 1993, where the toy aisles were overflowing with plastic greatness.
We're talking Batman: The Animated Series, Jurassic Park, Power Rangers, Street Fighter II, Kenner Aliens, Ninja Turtles, Sonic the Hedgehog, Spawn, WWF Hasbros, and more. It was the golden era of after-school cartoons, SNES and Genesis wars, and action figures with firing missiles, glow-in-the-dark slime, and way too many accessories.
From there, it’s time for the Power 5 Vehicle Draft—where we each build the ultimate fleet of toy vehicles across land, sea, and air. Batmobiles, Blimps, Tanks, Blasters, Boats, and deep cuts like the Bigfoot Champions Crunch Arena all collide in a heated draft for toy supremacy.
Plus: all the latest action figure news from Hasbro, Mattel, McFarlane, NECA, Super7, Jada, and more.
Road trips. Retro toy aisles. Draft day chaos.
This one hits the gas and never lets up.
