thanks motleyspoisongun -- But I'm only collecting the Superstars Series line. When you start getting into the Best of Series, Signature Series, and the others -- Jakks has way too many figures to collect. I currently have Superstar Series 1-6 and 9 (just missing series 7 & 8; I'll pick those up eventually).

I like those Hart Foundation figures with the vests. I just wish we couldve gotten a Neidhart in the BCA line.

Just a thought if we did get a BCA Neidhart would he have had Vader's body?

that neidhart is SICK! is there any site that has photos and list of every BCA released? I had about 2 XL Totes full of figures when I was a kid and was always curious if I had them all or most.

Been fixing up some of my old custom BCA figures. Thought id take some better photos of my WCW guys: Jericho, Flair & Sting Hogan, DDP & Booker T and today I ficed up my Randy Orton with a Mattel head and I personally love it! Really jealous of that Nash & Hall, always wanted to do updated versions but still use the older figures. I like seeing the smaller molds used. If I had my way, Jakks would have continued down that path instead of having everyone so bulked up. It's funny you would use the Signature Series 4 Edge body for Jericho because I've always felt that would be the best look for a simple Y2J fix-up. DDP is my favorite of the bunch with the Bad to the Bonz 3-pack Austin base. I used to love making custom characters out of the street gear Austin figures. The BCA Warrior is the reason I started buying every Warrior I could find. He showed up in March and was out if the company by July. He was hard to find in my area but I was lucky to find him. So later on when Warrior was made in the Classic Superstars line, I bought all of them. I never knew if i would ever see them again. Here we are today and I still buy every Mattel Warrior, thanks to the Jakks BCA Warrior from series 2. That was also the last series of wrestling figures that bought the entire series. All six were great. Also I never could find that Jakks microphone that was shown on the back of the cards. Man what I would give for that. It's really awesome to read stories like yours which date back 20+ years with no end in sight. Thanks for sharing with us. I hope for all our sakes that Mattel attempts a few 1996-era Ultimate Warrior figures. For me, WrestleMania XII is an essential Warrior look and one that I think is deserving of a Defining Moments release. I recently started collecting the BCA Superstar Series Figures. Has anyone ever accidentally bought figures that aren't a part of the Superstars Series line, but look like they are? Before finding the BCA checklist on here, I bought this Owen Hart that makes it look like he's from Series 3: I love this series, but man --- Jakks really overdid it with all of these random duplicates. I think that's why most collectors stay away from BCA --- it's overwhelming how many figures there are. I can definitely see how someone might confuse the two. For future reference, note the color difference in SUPERSTARS and the absence/presence of the Bone Crunching Action logo in the upper-left corner of the card. Also, underneath the wrestler's photo insert should be a mention of the Series number (1 or 3). Best of '97 does not have a clearly defined series number. (Superstars Series 3 is on the left and Best of '97 Series 2 is on the right) Just a thought if we did get a BCA Neidhart would he have had Vader's body? Without a doubt, but Jakks couldn't hold a candle to ellisd 's custom. that neidhart is SICK! is there any site that has photos and list of every BCA released? I had about 2 XL Totes full of figures when I was a kid and was always curious if I had them all or most. I've got a checklist here but it is severely lacking in photos. If you still have any of your collection and would like them identified, post pics in this thread. I picked up a MOC Dan Severn. Only BCA in my collection. It's a good one. Far from perfect, but adequate for its time.

Finished up a Vince McMahon BCA custom. Wanted to give him that jacked look when he occasionally wrestled in the attitude era so I used Dr Death's arms and the barrel chested N.O.D. torso for him. I went for a dark tan on purpose to emulate his look back then. More to come soon! Enjoy... +a video on my instagram @philiprodesigns Vince Mattel Battle Pack Head D'Lo BCA Torso Dr Death Arms Crush Crotch Piece Austin Legs

No pics of mine yet but I got these parts in an eBay lot. Does anyone want anything? Almost all the loose torsos have been cracked. Not trying to get rich. Lemme know!

Exactly what I would have wanted out of Jakks, but obviously they were never going to mix and match parts with the same effectiveness. I think the man himself would be very proud of your creation. Everything fits perfect and the exaggerated skin tone matches McMahon's personality to a tee. Thanks for sharing!

Reed "By God" Bentley in BCA form. Yeah, it's pretty much a Stone Cold figure but I swapped the torso onto the shorts, gave him Thrasher arms, sculpted the beard, painted the shirt & socks. Not a perfect reference picture but he's worn stuff on the figure before, promise! Did anyone ever make a strip poker Shawn using Headbanger legs? I think it would be perfect!
