• The Action Figure Hall of Fame
    Jun 15 2026

    On Episode 50 of Mighty Champions: Action Figure Radio, we celebrate our 1-year anniversary with our first-ever Action Figure Hall of Fame.

    We kick things off with our hauls from Chemical Toy Fair in Austin, TX, where Christian scored an awesome 1998 Godzilla and Jon completed the BK Kids Club TMNT VHS set, plus found a grail that just happens to be up for Hall of Fame induction, and Christian shares some childhood trauma from Taekwondo class.

    Then we reveal our personal Hall of Fame picks, pure heart-over-head selections, that represent who we are as collectors and how we got here.

    As always, we cover the latest action figure news, including WWE Ringside Collectibles exclusive reveals, McFarlane Sports Legends, and more.

    Finally, the main event: using the fan vote from Instagram, we discuss and induct winners across superhero figures, wrestling figures, movie/TV figures, vehicles, and miscellaneous toys into the prestigious Mighty Champions Action Figure Hall of Fame.

    This one gets personal, analytical, nostalgic, and celebratory.
