We need to pin a full list of the Bone Crunching figures. I remember some real late in KB toys of William REgal for instance. Here's my BCA checklist, though you won't find any Backlash Series William Regal figures on there because those belong to the TTL line. Before there were TTL and RA figures released as part of the Backlash series, there was BCA Backlash figures utilizing both the original sculpts and the newer BCA style molds. The Backlash series (only to be found at KB Toys stores) began with five assortments of the original BCA figures in 2000-01, then was later revived for three series (starting over from "Series 1") of the newer BCA style figures in 2002-03. It wasn't until 2004, I believe, that Jakks made the decision to replace the new BCA sculpts present at the time to TTL figures like William Regal in his generic suit mold.

...so...I went a little nuts and now have every S.T.O.M.P. figure heading my way... I've been there before , but I'll be the first to admit that I have a soft spot for S.T.O.M.P. figures. Not so much for what I believe they represent, Jakks' first attempt at replacing BCA as the standard line, but for the similar scale to BCA figures and the absurdity of the gimmicks (wrestlers at war/underwater/in space/etc). The first two series were my favorites, though series 3 and 4 (a.k.a. Camo Carnage) are a better value with the number of accessories included for each.

It all started when I found a MOC Ahmed listed for four bucks...then I kept adding more to my cart as they increased in price...what the hell am I gonna do with that hideous Austin? Have adventures, of course! I can't decide if I want to go through with acquiring Camo Carnage next, even though they're all relatively cheap on the secondary market. I guess it all depends on how much I enjoy S.T.O.M.P. when I have them in-hand; they were the first Jakks figures I remember seeing in stores and they've been on my mind for over fifteen years. I'm giddy with anticipation over the thought of the Headbangers in wetsuits duking it out with LOD 2000 clad in metal space armor. If the reality isn't as enthralling as the idea, Camo Carnage wouldn't be worth my time.

If the reality isn't as enthralling as the idea, Camo Carnage wouldn't be worth my time. I've shared some memories in this thread of finding various S.T.O.M.P. figures at retail in 1998, but Camo Carnage/Series 4 was never on my radar as a kid. I sought them out in recent years to complete my collection of S.T.O.M.P. figures, but I don't know if I would group them in with or look upon them as favorably as the original three series. Camo Carnage is an incredibly detailed and articulate line of "wrestling" figures for 1999 Jakks (pre-TTL 1999 Jakks at that), but it isn't a necessity to buy if your main concern is completing the six-inch S.T.O.M.P. figure line.

Started reading back through this thread from the beginning...stopped about eighteen pages in before coming back to this page because I really, really don't need to start scavenging for vintage BCAs on eBay and drain my bank account after getting paid today. I am inspired to pull some of my Havoc Unleashed figures out and having some fun with them, however; sure, they're not as good as BCA, but it's been a while since I've gotten to actually...play with figures in a rough manner without the fear of damaging paint, they can take quite a beating! Did they take the elbow crunching action out after the first couple of sets? I don't recall ever having a figure with it (I started a little late on BCA with Fully Loaded Al Snow, the only figures I got that were older than that were Slammers). Did they even go so far as to remove the function completely? EDIT: I just got my first S.T.O.M.P. figure in the mail, series 2 Rocky. My God, that smell...the smell of opening a BCA that I hadn't experienced for over fifteen years. Sure, it wasn't as strong as opening an actual BCA (less vinyl parts), but it certainly clicked with the recesses of my mind and felt good. Rocky itself is meh, but that means it'll only get better from here! I'm hoping at least two more will show up tomorrow, then a massive flood will rush to my mailbox next week (a lot of them are coming from the NY area). The Road Warriors are coming from opposite sides of the country, which is pretty damn cool; two wayward figures reunite after being shipped from the factory all those years ago. Now to purchase a container to put them all in, I'll be crushed if I lose an accessory...

Went to a random hole in the wall toy store and found some bcas. She had a lot of a bunch of them for 50 bucks but I only wanted LOD but she wouldn't break up the lot so I was kinda bummed. But she had a blue blazer by himself for 5 bucks so I grabbed that, came with the cape and is in really good condition.

It's possible the mechanism doesn't work as it should on certain BCA figures, but I just got it to work on a Superstars Series 9 Christian without much effort at all. Tough to say. I do admire your renewed interest in the BCA line GB, and I only wish that other users who browse this thread or the Jakks board in general could feel the same feelings. Seriously, I love that last paragraph.

I bought a newer style bca kurt angle and chris jericho for $1.00 each. they are loose but in good shape. I like the jericho attire because it is purple with silver barbed wire.

I remember really liking the STOMP figures because you got alot of accessories with them. They were a buck more though 5.99 instead of 4.99 I was excited for the 1st series too because that was where we got Pillman first.

I hate seeing this thread bumped for like 8 different "best of" threads anyway, what ring did you all use? Attitude, Monster, etc. I'm looking for a monster ring moc or loose by the way so if anyone has one let me know!

I may have a Raw Monster ring. I know there used to be an one in the basement that we got with a figure lot. I'm not sure if its still there though, will check next time I'm at my parents house.

I'd like to take a moment and remind those of you after early BCA to take a look at my Haves list. I'll make it VERY EASY to get them from my house to yours.
