And I wish we could get a firm release date for Series 1, because frankly I'm still skeptical about the supposed late 1995 findings of those figures. How then do you explain Goldust's figure when he didn't even make his in-ring debut until October '95? The figure process itself takes about four to six months, which means that February to April '96 is more reasonable. As far as I know, early May 1996 is when most stores across the U.S. received shipments of Superstars Series 1. Interesting question here. It jogged my memory a little: the first time I ever saw Superstar Series 1 in stores was early June, 1996. It had to be early June because I was visiting my cousin over summer break, which means I had just gotten out of school. So the early May window sounds very likely. I always wondered how long Jakks' WWF figures had been out before I found them; it was a complete shock to see them at Toys R Us that day.

GOD I LOVE THIS THREAD!!
All of this talk of BCA's has gotten me aching to add more to my collection. I've always planned to finish the BCA collection later, but now I want to get started right away.
Why hasn't this been stickied?!

I still find the odd old notebook with my old ppv matches that I wrote down or tournament brackets I wrote down so I would remember. Lot's of King of the Ring ones. Anything from Hasbro right up to the RA Jakks. So many random things too that I had happen. Like, since I was still using BCA figures in 2003, I had Evolution consist of Triple H, Bob Holly, Val Venis and Test hahaha Test then won a chance to face the champion, who was Triple H so they kicked Test out and Billy Gunn joined. Shades of when the Horsemen kicked out Luger and replaced him with Windham. Ahhh those were the days haha

I actually had lower card guys win the World Title. I had Edge, Billy Gunn, Owen Hart, Davey Boy Smith, Test, Jeff Jarrett, Faarooq and Vader all at one time win the WWE Title, along with having guys like HBK, Triple H, Bret Hart, Taker, Kane and such hold it. That was the beauty of playing with toy wrestlers, you could push who you wanted to see be at the top. I believe I started keeping track of every match I ever did in 1996. I just remember that I had Savio Vega of all people become the WWF Champion at the time. I've made Dan Severn the World champ at least twice, Owen Hart twice, and Bob Holly finally realized his dream of World Champion this past Christmas =o) I hardly ever do anything that actually happens on TV.

My monster ring's mat is all blue streaks because of all of Flash Funk's 450 splashes he loved to do. The rest were from Shawn/Vader 2 pack from Meijer.
Man, that mother was out of scale, wasn't it?

The scale was so awful. Thats why when the attitude ring came out, I was super excited. And it came with a decently scaled cage too.
Did anyone else incorporate non-wrestling figures in their feds? I had this army guy with a beret that was about 7 inches tall and a yellow U-shaped hook for a hand. I have NO idea where he came from either.

I had 3 different notebooks to keep track of (wcw,ecw,wwf). Most of the things i did diden't make sence like:
Having the power rangers win the wcw tag team titles.
Val Venius winning the ECW title over Sabu. Only to jump ship to the wwf and he gave the belt to Shane Douglas (who was already wwf champion).
One of my biggest ppvs was called "wwf gold" were the champions of all 3 companys would defend there titles.
My worst trade ever was Bret Hart jumping ship to ecw. Inexchange Super Crazy went to the wwf.

I have NO idea where he came from either. I've used Power Rangers, Ninja Turtles, Reboot, Trolls, Smurfs, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph, etc. in storylines, especially when I was younger. For the most part it's kept to just wrestlers now though. My biggest PPV is always X-Mas Eve Bash and I always have a "Blast from the Past" match where it incorporates some big feud or figures like the Power Rangers from the past. Last year I had Mankind vs. Goldust with the Smurfs as lumberjacks, and I had Y2J vs. Frosty with Rudolph as the ref. All kinds of fun stuff!

I had a Pillsbury Dough Boy stuffed "animal" that I won in a store's contest. And I had a Woody from Toy Story doll. They had matches, they both won the world title and had some feuds with the Big Show and other big guys.

I definitely never put in anything else as 'wrestlers' when I played with mine. I just used the actual action figures I had.
But I do remember I had all the Ninja Turtles and I would have a Survivor Series with them once as a joke for something to do. I had all 4 Turtles and Casey Jones vs. Splinter, Bebop, Rocksteady, a Foot Soldier and that robotic turtle. Ahhhh... now that was boredom at its best haha

New figures always got a push in my fed.
If my friend didn't have a certain wrestler, he would just use someone else. For example if he didn't have a bossman figure, he might use a stone cold figure but call it 'bossman' and it would do bossman's moves. I never had that kind of imagination.

I remember I had Goldust and Shamrock as my tag champions in the Corporation because I didn't have a Boss Man figure yet. But I would never rename my figures if I didn't have a guy. That would just feel totally awkward to me.

I would always use the doubles i had and make it seem like it was a new wrestler. An example of this was when i got the grudge match 2 pack of Austin/Bossman. I used the series 4 Austin as a wrestler called Mr. Dallas. What was the best and worst storyline you ever had in your fig fed? Best: A Fatal 4 way feud between Bret Hart, Mankind, Shane Douglas, Triple H. the feud ended at Fully Loaded with a Hardcore Fatal 4 way match. Triple H won. Worst:Setting up the title tournament for the vancent WCW Title and having the final match be Flash Funk vs The Disco Inferno with Flash Funk winning.

I did royal rumbles where i would randomly pull a figure out of the bin. Of course sometimes for storyline purposes I would choose a certain wrestler to come out. It was hard when there got to be 8 or so guys in the ring. A lot of wrestlers would be "fighting" in the corners, or someone would be hit with a finisher and would be knocked out for a little bit. I would keep switching between different sets of wrestlers during the match. If the ring got too crowded then I'd make some eliminations.

I would do one battle royal a year and it was at a ppv called World War 3. I would have 3 rings (wwf,wcw,ecw). The winner got a championship match with the champion of his choosing. I remember having crush win the first battle royal and he chose to take on the Undertaker for the wwf title. Only bad thing is that match never happened because the next night on Raw crush's leg fell off when he had a match with Vader. .
