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.

Mighty Champions: Action Figure Radio
Action Figure Fight Federation & Mattel DC Toy Hit Lists
Episode 32 kicks off with the debut of Action Figure Fight Federation, our new PPV-style segment where action figures from different universes collide in dream matchups decided by interest, nostalgia, accessories, and pure playground logic. We break down hypothetical show-stealers like He-Man vs Lion-O, Jurassic Park’s Electronic T-Rex vs Trendmasters 1998 Godzilla, Cactus Jack vs Casey Jones, and other cross-universe clashes where the figures, their gear, and their shelf presence matter just as much as the characters themselves.
From there, we dive into the toy news of the week, including the latest Masters of the Universe movie toy reveals and a deep look at Mattel’s new DC announcements, discussing what hits, what misses, and what has collectors paying attention.
We close the episode by laying out our DC collecting plans for the upcoming adult-collector Mattel DC line. From absolute heavy hitters like Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Joker, Darkseid, and Lex Luthor, to must-have supporting players and villains, we go through every character we intend to chase when these figures finally hit shelves.
Big fights, big news, and big DC ambitions. This one sets the table for what Mighty Champions is building next.
