This episode, Chris and Cindy begin a new recurring feature, Tales from the Toy Chest! This new series will cover a comic character’s history in plastic, from the first licensed products through today. With Captain America: Civil War only a week away, what better hero to start with than the Star Spangled Avenger himself, Captain America!
From Captain Action to Mego, Secret Wars to Toy Biz and beyond, the Super Mates dig deep into Chris’ collection to find the best (and worst) Cap toys of the past 50 years!
