To anyone else that has the Walter in Heisenberg casual attire, what did your carding look like? Was the blister bubble falling off the card? I ordered quite a few direct and every one had that issue. They need to work on their quality control.

My favorite bca figure to play with was the series 3 Mankind. I remember using him in almost all of my story lines. I had mankind and the british bulldog have a small fued that ended with mankind winning and becoming the #1 contender for the wwf title against HBK. The HBK/Mankind match was set for mindgames (I copied what the wwf did because i liked there fued). I turned that match into falls count anywhere and had mankind win after he superplexed hbk thru the entrance way. I remember I used to have a bca mankind that I put a Bret hart head on and took to school with me in my back pack in elementary school.. Memories.

You are incredible! I hope this works out well for you because I'd really love to see an extension on other heads from really just about all eras (that won't get you into trouble). I know your time is probably limited but to dream of the possibilities is exciting stuff!

I can't speak on all, but I would guess you are going to be paying at least $50 per loose figure in good shape, except for Bossman, Warrior, Warlord.. I know all three of those sell for at least $75 in great shape.

BCA Series 2 BCA Champions Box Set with Bulldog/Undertaker/Rock BCA 2 Pack with Bret Hart BCA Series 6 Blackhart BCA 2 Tuff 2 Pack with the Rock (In Danger gear) and possibly a Best of 97 with a Hart foundation jacket but I can't recall if he was in that set or not. I think thats it! It's sad that those will be the only figures we will ever get of him Also, Blue Blazer Owen Bend-Ems Owen STOMP Thumbwrestler Hasbro Rocket But yeah, I'm really looking forward to the project going on on the other figures board to get an RA sized Owen head. It will be great!

I think the reason why our creativity is gone now for even attempting to play with wrestling figures is because of the current product we see on TV. During the BCA era there was so much happening for wrestling. We had the attitude era of WWE, we had WCW and ECW too on TV. There was always some creative juices flowing in our heads. But those days are gone. If WWE can't put on creative wrestling each week, we have little help to do it for our own pleasure with toys. That's a great point. It makes me sad for today's younger wrestling fans that will never know the quality of product that we were lucky enough to experience live. They're accepting what WWE is feeding them now and taking it as their standard. However when we look at it, most of the time it's mediocre at best. Just out of curiosity, what is everyone's favorite BCA to play with? That one figure that when you sat down to play, you almost always grabbed first. That one figure who was your preferred wrestler to be your champion. For me, it was my "Blackheart" Owen Hart figure. I used him in all sorts of scenario's, matches and story lines. Story lines ranging from feuding with my Corporate Big Boss Man for the Hardcore Title, or having an epic 7 match series (a la Chris Benoit/Booker T) against The Patriot. BCA Series 2 Bret Hart vs the World.... ...OSFTM WCW the new world order

Interesting collection, i have to admit some of those customs are tough to look at, namely the ones that are a mix of BCA and RA parts, but thats just me. I like the look of the BCA Owen head on an RA body though, might have to try that for my DA custom, that Sultan seems a mess, I dont remember him ever wearing all black They look better in person.. And no Sultan never wore all black but then again I've never received another Sultan custom. Though I will say, like every collector who only gets one figure for every guy-ish, every figure is a placeholder until I find a better one.

I am somewhat of a custom/fixup collector as you are about to see. If it was up to me, I would only have customs but there are some figures Jakks did a great job with. Let me also say that I did not create a single one of these.. Everything you are about to see was purchased through other collectors and customizers. Lex Luger Hybrid Custom next to CS3 Pack Bulldog Diesel CS11, The Stalker Custom, 123 Kid CS11, Bob Holly CS, Jeff Jarrett Hybrid Custom Razor Ramon w/ Head Swap, HBK WM 12 with Entrance Greats Gear, Sid Custom, Bret Hart Custom, Owen Hart BCA/RA Hybrid Custom, The Rock, Justin Hawk Bradshaw Bret Hart next to Owen The Sultan (Custom) vs. The Rock! (Custom head switch) The Hart Foundation Great Bulldog and Pillman customs. Jakks should have done these attires! All I need are the Blackjacks! Nation of Domination! Nation pt 2 Savio Vega hybrid custom in the background Crush (TTL Custom), Ahmed Johnson, and Goldust hybrid custom Taka!!!!! Oh, and Marc Mero. I'd love for Taka to get fixed up if anyone wants to put some feet on that boy! Double Double Eff! The Kliq Wrestlemania 13 The Flock Custom Steiners vs Custom Nasty Boys WCW Mid carders new new new new new world order NWO pt 2 The Disciple Custom, Scott Steiner, Dusty, and Scott Hall Hulk Hogan, Konnan, Buff Bagwell, and Outsiders Nash Custom Regal, Pillman Custom, Chavo Custom, Malenko Custom Lex Luger Custom Goldberg RA4, Booker T Harlem Heat Custom, Sting TNA RI 1, Piper Custom Hall, Hart, Savage, Hogan, and Warrior Storm, Douglas, Mike Awesome Mysterio, Douglass, and Candido ECW Guys.

Along side one of the best Thanks for looking! I hope it gives you customizers some ideas because I'm going to need to get the rest of these gaps filled! I still want to have but am in no hurry to find: Randy Savage (NWO) DDP in Jeans / Long Hair Glacier Mortis Wrath Alex Wright The Patriot The Truth Commission Rockabilly Gunn A better Headbangers set Hardy Boys Mideon Gangrel Viscera New Age Outlaws Flash Funk

They're getting rid of the people that they've built up on they're own. From a fan perspective this is pretty frustrating. I was actually behind Christian Yorke partially because of TNA booking him like a veteran underdog who's finally getting his comeuppance.. And Joey Ryan, taking a no to a yes on the gutcheck..only to be released from his contract? Matt Morgan? The DNA of TNA? Even Tara, while a WWE name for many years really came into her own in TNA in my opinion. What's the point of booking an undercard if TNA will show us these people are unimportant when they are off TV for a few weeks and get released?
