The BCA Line

those arms work for chyna and nia. i can't take them seriously on any other female wrestler

Bammer never had a BCA he had indeed left already

BANG! My custom version of DDP upon moving to WWF in '98 after losing his final WCW match to Goldberg at Halloween Havoc.

Those tattoos though

I love what you're doing to convert more women wrestlers to the BCA style. It's something that I haven't seen attempted before, but I think you're as equipped as anyone to be able to pull it off. Nia Jax is the best yet, and I can't wait to see what else you've got planned.

I'm grateful that we at least got the Backlash HBK with the revised Slammers torso. That little change makes a big difference.

Seriously, do it! The Acolytes look too good not to be strapped lol. It bothers me that Jakks got started on making their figures (including the new BCA prototypes) but couldn't finish the deal.

Do you think all of the decals Curb Stomp City makes can be used for BCAs? Have you thought of doing any custom orders with them?

Does it matter to you if the parts you use have BCA or not?

I love those Austin legs for Val. Even if they are a bit skinny for him, I wouldn't want them to be much thicker. I guess you could Frankenstein the upper thighs from Sid's legs and Austin's lower legs to combine the best of both.

With the exception of the great head sculpt for Severn, his figure always felt like an afterthought. He needed a t-shirt torso or something to set him apart from the rest.

Yeah, when I think of Owen with a flat top, I'm reminded of Summer '97. It's a real shame that the Grudge Match 2-Pack with HHH (released OVER a year later) couldn't benefit from that newer S.T.O.M.P. Series 2 head sculpt.

Brock and Shamrock are awesome. The tattoo placement doesn't look bad to me. Those two would be guaranteed main-eventers in any fed of mine.

Love DDP's decals. The only thing I'd probably change would be the crotch piece. He's got quite the dumper on him lol.

Benoit is excellent. Those are the WCW Souled Out 2000 decals, correct? I love how those came out.

Cactus and Terry (no Funk ) are must-haves. Two quality BCA figs, and of course they were limited exclusives.

I didn't know the Backlash Shawn had a revised torso Too bad it's so hard to find

While I was never a fan of the "new" BCA style, I always hate seeing unreleased prototypes. The TTL Jarrett still makes me mad too. I finally finished The Acolytes. I swapped out Faarooq's head with an RA one, I think it has a better likeness and the skintone matches up better with the body.


Looking good with the straps


The only thing you really have to consider regarding Curb Stomp Decals is the size. I find the Retro style works best on the BCA crotch pieces and the Mattel style fits on most upper torsos and legs. There are some exceptions, of course. Most of the pics on Curb Stomp's site show the decals on Mattel figures, so I just hold up the BCA figure I plan on customizing and I compare the proportions to determine if I need the Mattel ones or the Retro ones. Sometimes I end up ordering both if I'm unsure. The dude that works there is also super helpful if you have a question.

The only custom I've had Curb Stomp do for me so far is Christian's tattoo.


I'm not real stubborn on whether the parts I use actually have bone crunching action or not, especially if I paint them because bending the joints in the opposite direction can crack the paint anyways. My goal is to just try and make them look like authentic BCA style figures, so if the likenesses and proportions aren't perfect, I'm fine with that. I don't remember Kurrgan having abs like Tony Horton or X-pac having veins popping out of his arms like Scott Steiner but, for whatever reason, it works within the BCA style.

I prefer the Austin legs for Val too. The Frankensteining of parts is a little beyond me and my experience at this point, but I would be curious to see what the result would look like.

Severn with the sweaty grey shirt and towel could have been an awesome, unique-looking figure.

Thanks for the Brock and Shamrock compliment. Shamrock would certainly be one of my favorite customs. I love how the heads are so easily interchangeable so I can choose from calm, cool and collected Shamrock to IN THE ZONE! Shamrock.


Yeah lol the DDP crotch piece is a whole thing. The Faarooq legs wouldn't work with a typical crotch piece so I didn't have much of a choice if I wanted to use them. My other option was a Kama lower body but it seemed a bit thick as well. DDP was more tall and lanky. Neither looked perfect to me, but this was closer.

The Souled Out 2000 decals are indeed what I used. It's also the attire he wore for his WWF debut against HHH on Smackdown. I still have the yellow Summerslam 2000 decals too if I plan on making a second Benoit.

Yeah Cactus and Executioner eluded me all these years until recently. I'm stoked to have them now.

Thanks for taking the time to comment

I got banned from Twitter so I have to make a new account there

It was the first line since Bret began using the Sharpshooter, where I could actually put someone in a Sharpshooter. That was a real big deal for me at the time, haha.

@kyoken
Getting laid off is lame, hopefully things pick up soon. Luckily most BCA figures are pretty common and affordable. They're also easy to clean up if you can find loose ones in decent shape.

The Ministry of Darkness, sans Mideon. I've seen some good Mideon BCA customs so I hope to make one some day.
