Chasing Plastic, A Toy Podcast
Five voices. Zero filters. And we’re coming to you live from the heart of the hobby.
Welcome to Chasing Plastic, the podcast where four guys and a girl dive headfirst into the chaotic universe of toys and collectibles. We record on-site at Legendary Comics and Records in Racine, WI.
We’re bringing you raw, uncensored opinions on everything from vintage grails to modern masterpieces. We’re talking about the adrenaline of the hunt, the latest local show floor reports, and the truth behind our recent pick-ups. Whether you’re a lifelong collector or just starting your journey, pull up a chair and join the conversation.
Fair warning: This is a "grown-up" look at toys. It’s loud, it’s unfiltered, and it’s pure chaos. Just the way we like it.
