Just scored this lot on eBay for $30. Pretty stoked about it! Ahhh, very envious of those Crush and Mero singles figures. GREAT deal, especially if that price includes shipping. I've missed a lot of good deals on eBay lately. Stuff that I normally pick up on, but I've been distracted.

what does a removed head look like? As far as the peg/hole. I've had heads break off....but never seen one removed cleanly.
Ultimately I want to know if its possible to use a BCA head on a mattel.

From what I remember I had a couple heads come off cleanly one of them was a Billy Gunn. And it was just your standard peg with a ball at the top. Idk why they made them where you couldn't move a lot of the heads 360 they glued them on. But I got some figures that could move 360 one of them was a Stone Cold..and the other was Billy Gunn after I got his head off.

I know Vader was always good for a clean head swap (not that that was ever my intention, though), but I'm no expert on deconstructing BCA figures. The heads on the newer BCA figures (made in the early 2000's) can be moved side to side and have an added crunching sound effect. They were basically re-issued Real Scan heads from the popular TTL and R-3 sets of the time.

I wouldn't say BCA's had the best sculpts ever......but they had some decent ones. I was thinking of using a Flash Funk head for a Mattel 2 cold scorpio

Just run them under some hot water is how I used to do it when I was younger. I swapped heads all the time. Especially with the Patriot and Blue Blazer figures. I would pop there heads off and put another head on to so I could have a mask vs. mask match or have a mystery wrestler revealed.

How is it that Chainsaw Charlie got a Mini made of him, but not a BCA figure made?? A Chainsaw Charlie/Cactus Jack 2 pack would have been a sweet exclusive set much like how Razor/Diesel were.

Timing is everything. Chainsaw Charlie debuted on the final episode of RAW in 1997, feuded with The New Age Outlaws heading into WrestleMania XIV, evolved back into Terry Funk shortly thereafter in mid-April 1998, and as Terry Funk wrestled his last match at Fully Loaded in late July 1998, less than seven months after debuting his new gimmick.
Chainsaw Charlie's Mini Rings figure (available only in the Survivor Series playset) was released in October 1998, or six-to-seven months clear of his big WrestleMania moment.
If there were ever a time for CC to have had a BCA figure, it would have been early in the fall of 1998. However, he was no longer a prominent figure (no pun) on TV and I doubt he was very much of a priority for Jakks or the WWF.
Remember, it usually took Jakks six months to pump out a new figure, and time wasn't on Chainsaw Charlie's side.

Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie were planned for 2 Tuff series 2 originally but were replaced by Brian Christopher and Lawler. I dont know the exact reason for it, its very likely that Jakks decided they wanted to have a box set with Cactus as the exclusive for a store, which they did with the 3 faces of foley 3 pack for KB Toys. I too was disappointed Chainsaw Charlie wasnt made, as I was that Jake Roberts didnt get made.

How many times did they release the referee? if I am not mistaken it was twice: bundled with the Monster Ring, and the second time in the Ringside collection. Correct me if there was more

WWF / WWE SUVIVOR SERIES SIGNATURE SERIES 4 : COMPLETE SET OF 6 ACTION FIGURES The shipping kills it though. Even if you win it for the $9.99, you have to pay that $28 for shipping, bringing the total to almost $40. That's still $6.50 a figure.
