On Episode 51 we dive into one of the biggest questions in modern collecting: Online vs. In The Wild. We discuss when the story of the toy hunt becomes more important than the action figure itself, whether finding a grail at a toy store beats having it delivered to your front door, and how the internet has changed the collecting experience forever.
As always, we cover the latest action figure news, including a massive week for G.I. Joe Classified, the SDCC WWE Rock ’N Wrestling 3-Pack, Jada Toys’ new Street Fighter II Ultra “You Lose” accessories pack, Mezco Punisher, and more.
Finally, we fire up Toy Store Time Machine, where a random year is selected, and we each have just $25 to spend on action figures from that era. Which toys make the cut, which get left on the shelf, and how far does twenty-five bucks really go?
From toy hunts and nostalgia to Marvel, WWE, G.I. Joe, TMNT, Street Fighter, and action figure collecting, Episode 51 is packed with the conversations only collectors have.
