I fell into ECW hard after picking up an issue of PWI that had a pictorial review of Sabu and Terry Funk's match at Born to be Wired. It was the most grotesque thing I'd seen up until that point, and I needed more. My crowning achievement as a kid was going to a taping of Hardcore TV. It was every bit the unhinged experience I expected it to be. The main event broke out into the crowd, and in the shuffle, my brother and I lost the figures we'd bought before the show started. He was only 12 at the time and became quite upset, so I went and bought him a replacement. To this day, he still has that signed Sandman OSFTM hanging by his desk. Whoa, that's really cool! Was that your first live experience?
My second. Earlier that year a friend and I went to a WCW house show. For years I harped on the downside of "my first live event was a 2000 WCW show, but looking back? What an experience. Even past their prime, I got to see legends like Bret Hart, Jeff Jarrett, Sid, Dustin Rhodes, Dean Malenko, Lex Luger, and Bam Bam Bigelow ply their trade. I know guys today who'd trade their first born to see all that on one card. |

I feel as fans, we tend to bury WCW 2000 despite the roster they had at that time you know? |

I should have another lot I won on the bay show up tomorrow. It was a mix of early bca and even so STOMP in Paradise figures. Mostly bought it because of the 3 Owen figures all with long hair but they are all different I didn't know he had different attire.

I did really love how the ECW figures were in scale with the Jakks WWF figures.
Unfortunately, WCW figures were never in scale. They vibrated.

Some later-stage WCW figures were in scale enough to pass, but it was a real toss up to get ones that didn't involve overly elaborate action features or gimmicks to maintain passable inclusion (at least for my standards). Some notable WCW inclusions I remember allowing were: "T-Shirts 'n' Tattoos" (TNT) Vampiro "T-Shirts 'n' Tattoos" (TNT) Jeff Jarrett (I probably bought this solely for the better guitar accessory) Smash 'n' Slam The Giant (he was bigger, but it worked in a pinch before Show came up to NY) Smash 'n' Slam Scott Hall (I never had [and still don't have] a BCA Hall/Razor) Smash 'n' Slam Goldberg (had to have the Big Gold Belt) Ring Masters Chris Jericho (at the time I thought this likeness was tremendously spot-on) Ring Masters Lex Luger (see Jericho) WCW sure liked marketing figure lines with the abbreviated 'n' in them. |

"T-Shirts 'n' Tattoos" (TNT) Vampiro I love that figure. It's one of my proudest MOC figures in my collection. It’s a beautiful figure that really stands out. Had mine up till only a few years ago before it was traded away. the dreadlocks were the cherry on top. |

Tiny detail but I love the fact that his tattoos were colored in.
One of my favorite figures ever made.

Just thought I'd share this with the fellow BCA fanatics here, haha. It's nothing special, figure-wise but it's the very first figure I got signed.

What would be a fair price to pay for a loose blond Paul Bearer? Was he only released once?

So I just bought a ton of BCA figures got close to 90 in a lot. I had a bunch when I was a kid and have never seen this figure before. It was the same old undertaker that was released a hundred times but this one is purple and almost looks like a zombie. He had red a stripe in his hair white eyes and half arm tattoos. I think it looks awesome and wanted one on card but have never seen it before. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Definitely the coolest of all the Undertaker figures to use that mold. |

I just want to check before I plop down the money, Owen with the hand cast was only available in the two pack with Bret correct? Jakks never rereleased it did they?

Nope. That's the only one. Thank you. I'm at a store with a bunch of BCAs but didn't want to throw down $30 for the two pack if he was released as a single. I still have the Bret Hart when I bought this two when it first came out. I some how lost the Owen. But this is my favorite era of Owen. |

I have seen my photos posted in this thread previously (my crash custom and slammer conversions) I'm shocked my BCA uncarding and reviews have not made their way over here. Here's a link to my lastest video and to my page. I still have a few more videos coming. One more BCA and a few ECW osftm www.youtube.com/user/DustinYoung1986 |
