Pretty sure that was a variant mail-away exclusive available as part of the WrestleMania XV promotion in early 1999 and was limited to 20,000 pieces. It was a variant of this figure, though it still isn't worth anymore than the usual $5-7 price range for this particular exclusive.

You don't see this one too often, though, so you might be able to get up to $10 with the right collector.
I still need both lol, and I honestly don't know how I haven't broken down to buy either of them.

My favorite of all of the WM SCSA figures is the one I used to have and don't now: With the original BCA head.

I was looking at my small display of BCA tag teams earlier and it got me to thinking of just how many WWF tag teams can be assembled using BCA figures?
Feel free to contribute, whether it's established or thrown-together teams, as long as they are teams that were formed in the WWF.
Here are 10 for starters:
1. The Road Warriors/Legion of Doom/LOD 2000 (Hawk and Animal) 2. New Age Outlaws (Road Dogg and Billy Gunn) 3. The Godwinns (Henry O. and Phineas I.) 4. The Headbangers (Mosh and Thrasher) 5. Owen Hart and British Bulldog 6. The New Blackjacks (Bradshaw and Windham) 7. The Truth Commission (The Interrogator and Rekon) 8. Stone Cold Steve Austin and Dude Love 9. Stone Cold Steve Austin and Shawn Michaels 10. Owen Hart and Yokozuna
Remember, don't just state "DOA" without listing each formation of the stable's members (and if you have photos/videos to back it up, share them).

(Fake) Razor Ramon & (Fake) Diesel (if you had both copies, you could easily make one the fakes) Exactly, and that's why I'm amazed to this day that Jakks didn't re-release those figures in another 2-pack. Though, instead of Series 1 re-releases, I would've liked repaints of Razor in all-green attire with a black vest and Diesel in his silver top/black pants attire from WMXII. Great additions to the list, too. Here are some more BCA tag teams: - X-Pac and Bob Holly (from their days as The 1-2-3 Kid and Spark Plug, respectively) - Stone Cold and The Undertaker - Faarooq and Bradshaw/The Acolytes/The APA - The Big Show and The Undertaker - Crash and Hardcore Holly/The Holly Cousins (well, probably not, but you could make a case for it since the Backlash Series 5 Hardcore Holly insert used a picture of Crash) - The Dudley Boyz (if you count newer BCAs) - The Go(o)dfather and Rekon (a.k.a. Bull Buchanan) - The Rock and The Undertaker - Stone Cold and Triple H/The Two-Man Power Trip - Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho (again, newer BCAs) - Chris Jericho (newer) and The Rock - Booker T (newer) and Test - Edge and Hulk Hogan (newer) - Christian and Chris Jericho (newer) - Booker T (newer) and Goldust - Chris Benoit (newer) and Edge - Kane and The Big Show - Chris Jericho (newer) and Edge - Chris Jericho (newer) and The Big Show ...And those were all World Tag Team Champions. As for the WWE Tag Team Champions: - Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit (newer BCAs) That's it for WWE tag champions.

After spending most of the day looking at my old notebook that had the storylines from my old fig fed. I have made up my mind to get back into it. I will also be adding new superstars to the lineup because of the old tna toybiz and all the repaints of the bca line. My champions were:
wwe champion: Shane Douglas I.C. champ: Scott Steiner Hardcore champ: Al Snow Tag Team champs: Kane and Axel Rotten

That's something I've always wondered, too, but never got a clear answer.
I've been thinking of ranking/reviewing all of the Superstars Series figures lately, but I'm not quite sure the actual rankings will meet most people's approval.
It's hard to justify one over the other when we're talking four, five, even seven-way ties with the same overall scores.
The only thing that I'm absolutely sure of is the best of the best, and the worst of the worst.
As I have them currently? Series 9 Paul Wight is the best. Series 4 Hunter Hearst Helmsley is the worst.
More on the figure rankings later, but what's the best Superstars Series based on my scores? Series 8, a.k.a. Team Corporate, with Series 9, the final Superstars series, close behind.
Here's the list of series rankings:
1. Series 8 2. Series 9 3. Series 6 4. Series 1 5. Series 3 6. Series 5 7. Series 2 8. Series 7 9. Series 4
In my opinion, I think it's safe to say that Jakks really hit their stride toward the end. Series 1 really set the bar high, but Jakks introduced some of the best sculpts in the top three series listed above.
I almost wish Series 7 had ranked higher, but the lower half of the ranked figures from that particular series pulled the average score down. It could have easily ranked top five with one or two better scores.
With that said, my personal favorite of the nine Superstars series would be Series 1. ;D

I'll expand on the post in my first VJB entry for 2012, and hopefully I'll be able to clarify why they're ranked in that order. Just skimming the surface, but introducing new sculpts later in the line certainly helps the top three series listed above. And in other news, there are very few deals anymore for BCA figures on eBay. I mean, I'm convinced. I can't find anything for decent prices, unless you want to pay $10+ for singles figures. It seems like $7-8 is the average; what happened to my good $5-and-under deals?!?!?

I seen a series 8 Rock loose at a flea market today and the guy want $5.00 for it. He said it was rare and was worth well over what he was asking. He looked shocked when i told him that BCA's retailed for $5.00 each.

Maybe, or there aren't that many sellers willing to take a loss on wrestling figures.
Honestly, I found way too many deals in the past that I knew were bad for sellers, and I have to think they knew it, too.
I just hope that I don't fall into a trap and convince myself that $8+ for BCA singles is a good deal.
