Welcome to the Toy Federation Podcast, broadcasting from their toy store in Greer, South Carolina, as they take a nostalgic and hilarious deep dive into the worst toy vehicles ever made. Join hosts Ryan, Travis, and Andy as they breakdown legendary failures and bizarre design choices across iconic lines like G.I.
