very, very nice "vintage" receivings!
those would sell for sure if jakks decides to make "modern day" versions of those grapple gears.

BCAs were so awesome. Just look at the lineups on the back of the box - lots of different characters in each set with individual parts. I have all three of these grapple gear sets. If Jakks think that kids don't want these kind of accessories, they're nuts. I remember being 11 and smiling from ear to ear when I got the commentator set and dumpster set for Christmas. Hell, even a steel chair back then was something highly desired.
I got a kick out of that recreation of the prototype. Thanks for all the pics!

Very nice...I had that back in the day!
My Grandmother got it for me for as a b'day present.
I looked everywhere for the one that had the steel ring steps, but I could never find it.

Haha I remember always finding the dumpster pack, but I could never find the other two, and I wanted those really bad, I never looked at the back of the card though, so when my birthday came up and I got the 2 Tuff NOD,NAO, and S6 Owen and Henry i was amazed.
