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 isnât an instruction manual or a hype machine. Itâs a hangout for collectors whoâve 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 betweenâand if you enjoy talking toys with people who genuinely love the hobbyâthis is your spot.

Toy Movie Required Viewing & New On Deck Collections (Kenner Predator + Star Wars Prequels)
đď¸ Episode 24 â âChemical Toy Fair, Required Viewing & The On Deck Collectionâ
Recorded early due to Thanksgiving travel, Episode 24 brings the heat like a blast from a Kenner Predator shoulder cannon. We kick things off with a full recap of our epic trip to Chemical Toy Fair in Austinâwhat we saw, what we scored, and the one that got away.
Then we dive into the official Mighty Champions Action Figure Radio Letterboxd list: âRequired Viewingââa curated collection of essential movies for toy lovers and collectors. We debate what should and shouldnât be included, and what makes a movie worthy of MCAFR canon.
Finally, itâs another round of On Deck Collection, where we talk about the next lines calling our names. Jon is on the hunt for vintage Kenner Predator MOC, while Christian feels the Force pulling him toward Star Wars Episode IâIII collectibles. Itâs toy therapy at its finest.
