Did the Backlash Edge still weirdly use the Hunter Hearst Helmsley tights? The belt buckle on my BCA Edges really bugs me. No, they used the Psycho Sid arms, torso, and legs...and it worked really well for Edge. For the Series 3 Edge figure, yes, but the Backlash Series 1/2 Edge in red tights did reuse the Superstars Series 6 HHH sculpt.

I miss how affordable BCA's were. =(
Seeing the price tag on that Edge figure makes me shake my head at Mattel.

I also miss it. I remember going into meijers and buying the entire superstars series 6 for $30.00 and feeling like a big spender. Now that much might get you 2 elite figures.

It's called inflation Part of it is inflation, another part of it is higher costs (production, materials, transporting, etc). I'd say it mostly due to the latter not so much for the former. I do remember going to my KB Toys and being able to stock up on a lot of figures for relatively low money.

Excited to have stumbled upon this thread! I can't wait to read the whole thing over the weekend and share stories. BCA-early TTL provided so many fun times and happy memories for me!

I always hope I'll find a big lot of BCA figures with the weapons at a yard sale, but I never do.
If I ever found like a big rubbermade box full of them.. I'd almost have to buy the whole box.

I remember when that X-pac figure came out I searched EVERYWHERE for it and couldn't find it. I went nuts trying to add X-pac to my collection....Never found it, but shortly after I found the green attire Pac and that worked for me.

I looked for what felt like forever. My parents then called tru and found him. They took me to the store to pick him up but the lady at the front desk said they already sold him. I found him in the wwe section behind a row of dr.death figures.

I'm sure this has been asked a million times but is there a full complete list of BCA figures?
