This episode of the Toy Federation Podcast dives deep into the fascinating debate surrounding physical media vs. digital ownership, a crucial topic for collectors and enthusiasts of toys and pop culture. Join Ryan, Andy, and Travis as they explore the nostalgia for tangible items like vintage Hasbro and Kenner catalogs, the unique appeal of old school package art, and the simple joy of receiving mail with physical collectibles. Discover why VHS tapes are outselling DVDs in their shop, and how it coincides with the resurgence of vinyl records. The hosts also discuss the risks of losing digital content due to platform changes or corporate alterations, drawing parallels with how classic video game errors and pop culture references might be erased in the digital age, touching on the Mandela effect and censorship. This podcast is a must-listen for anyone passionate about retro pop culture, toy collecting, and the evolving landscape of media ownership.#toys #toycollector #toystore WATCH and SUBSCRIBE to Our Other Channels and Socials!*Main YouTube Channel: youtube.com/@toyfederation*Toy Federation Facebook: facebook.com/ToyFederationShop*Toy Federation Instagram: instagram.com/ToyFederationShop/BUY TICKETS for our UPCOMING TOY FEDERATION CONVENTIONS!*Our Horror Convention September 5-7, 2025: Retro-Horrorcon.com*Our Toy Convention November 21-23, 2025: Retro-Toycon.comTOY FEDERATION PODCAST ALSO AVAILABLE AT:*Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/mwuw3mtv*Apple Podcast: https://tinyurl.com/3pnbsyzf*Amazon Music: https://tinyurl.com/2bxsvccjWATCH EVERY EPISODE of the Toy Federation Podcast in one convenient PLAYLIST!https://tinyurl.com/3ds8yr36BUY Toy Federation MERCH!http://www.teepublic.com/user/toy-federationCOME OUT and VISIT OUR SHOP in Person! 104 Middleton Way, Greer, SC 29650Monday 10 AM–7 PMTuesday 10 AM–7 PMWednesday 10 AM–7 PMThursday 10 AM–7 PMFriday 10 AM–7 PMSaturday 10 AM–8 PMSunday Closed
