Chasing Plastic, A Toy Podcast

A collector named Oliver, Ollies sneaks a soft open and a grand score by "password"

We have a sit down with Oliver Lopez, a local collector who is always upgrading his collection and has been a steady collector since he was young. We also realize the local Ollies in Racine Wisconsin opened a week early without telling anyone and Jarame had an awesome pick-up!

Karl says everyone has to make a living, and why we don't collect all that?

We discuss what lines we don't collect and the reasons behind it, as well as another Star Wars distraction. So for the most part another interesting, fun and comical look at "what you probably shouldn't collect" ;)

oh Mummy we want to repo the Repro?

We take a serious look at how "reproductions" and "knock-offs" affect collecting and the hobby in general. Then we take a hard right into talking about how there are more and more toy shows popping up, pretty much everywhere.

The Captain's Formeldahyde Princess, a Funko fallout and we get gamed by Marcie

We invited Karl's daughter Cecilia to join us so we could find out how collecting affects our prodigy and man did we get schooled. Cecilia's girlfriend joins the fray and gives us a lowdown on her collecting and gaming. So much fun and laughs. We hope you enjoy!
