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.

Episode 33 kicks off with a catch-up that takes an unexpected turn, including an impromptu toy hunt at the dirt mall where Christian scores Bibleman, and Jon shares a martial arts story that leads to a major realization about the future of his Super7 TMNT collection, and what he ultimately decides to do with it.
From there, the guys dive into Action Figure Moneyball, where they break down hypothetical trades and debate whether multiple figures are worth sacrificing for a single grail, weighing value, rarity, shelf impact, and long-term collecting satisfaction.
Next, it’s a packed figure news segment, covering the latest from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, Transformers, Voltron, Street Fighter, Marvel Legends, NECA Vault boxes, Mondo Superman, and Mezco Nightcrawler, along with what’s worth paying attention to and what collectors should be cautious about.
The episode wraps up with Playset Mount Rushmore, as Jon and Christian debate the greatest playsets of all time before fantasy-booking their own dream playsets. From destruction-heavy battle zones to ultimate collector displays.
Unexpected finds, big collecting decisions, tough trade debates, and pure toy nostalgia! Episode 33 has it all.
