  • Here's Why the New LEGO Star Wars "Smart" Figures Suck! | WWWW 197
    Apr 15 2026

    Dive into the latest Wednesday Wins and Wiffs as we break down why the $90 Lego Star Wars Smart Play sets are a total "Wiff" with nonsensical sound effects and weird design choices. On the flip side, we celebrate a massive "Win" with the Sears-exclusive Star Wars Imperial Troop Transport and the 50th Anniversary Mego Avengers set. Join the three idiots as they navigate missing hosts, snotty white gloves, and rising gas prices while showing off the latest toy hauls.🚨📞 Call our FITT Voicemail Line to leave a comment, question, or suggestion: 732-800-197700:00 - Missing idiots and the Wantagh Inn fire02:43 - Chris's snotty white glove mystery04:31 - Economic chaos and electric car flexes07:12 - The $90 Lego Star Wars Smart Play Wiff10:28 - Luke and Leia's "garbage can" design13:16 - Hunting for the $1,500 Star Wars pilot15:52 - Tripling money on Merman figures16:50 - Mego 50th Anniversary Avengers Win20:02 - The less common Sears Imperial Troop Transport22:10 - Fixing vintage decals with glue sticks#ToyCollecting #StarWarsToys #LegoStarWars #FiveIdiotsTalkingToys #FITT #WinsAndWiffs #MegoFigures #VintageStarWars #ActionFigures #ToyHunters #MarvelToys #LegoWiff #ImperialTransport #Collectibles #ToyPodcast----------------------🫶 Support our #podcast through Patreon, and get early access to #toycollection previews, exclusive #starwarsactionfigures video content like Rated-R collector episodes AKA "Five Idiots After Dark" & our regular episodes before the public:https://patreon.com/FiveIdiotsTalkingToys👍🏼 Follow us on social media!
