    Cracktastic Plastic 178: Father Figures + Mamma's Vintage Toys & Collectibles - Toy Podcast

    This week, we're celebrating the dads, mentors, guardians, and father figures who helped shape the worlds we love. From wise leaders and tough-but-fair commanders to adoptive fathers and unlikely parental role models, we're showcasing the action figures and toy lines that gave us some of the most memorable father figures in pop culture. Whether they offered guidance, protection, discipline, or the occasional questionable life lesson, these characters left a lasting impact on generations of fans. We'll each bring examples from our collections, share stories about what made these characters stand out, and discuss the father figures who proved that being a hero isn't always about superpowers—sometimes it's about showing up when it matters most. We also spotlight Mamma's Vintage Toys & Collectibles during our Store Tour segment and talk about whether it’s a shop that everyone should visit someday.

    Cracktastic Plastic 174: #JaysDay Toy Hunt + Subatomic Vintage Toys - Toy Podcast

    Last Saturday, the crew loaded up the van and hit the road for #JaysDay, an all-day toy hunting adventure through Des Moines with Elgn, John Tipton, Chris “Turnip” Simmons, and the family — including stops at all three Jay’s CD & Hobby locations in search of retro treasures, hidden gems, and questionable purchases we definitely didn’t need. Then, with Memorial Day setting the tone, Elgn and I take a more personal turn by sharing toys connected to some of our best memories… and a few not-so-great ones. From toy hunt highlights to nostalgia that hits a little deeper, this episode is packed with stories, laughs, collecting chaos, and memories that remind us why toys stick with us long after childhood. We also spotlight Subatomic Vintage Toys during our Store Tour segment and talk about whether it’s a shop that everyone should visit someday.
