I wish I had some advice for you, I just wanted to remind you.. If it doesn't have the new BCA smell then it might not be new!

Thank you for all of your input. It gets really annoying when that happens to me because I am a loose colelctor.
Oh, and jammer311 - "There you go again!" haha

It bothers me to hear the rattling of a loose/broken peg inside of a figure that I've always wanted for my collection. I've got plenty of them, but you learn to accept the good and the bad when it comes to opening figures aged 10-15 years old. Namely, my Superstars Series 2 Undertaker is a flimsy, god-awful mess. I'm not about to tear it apart and fix what's wrong with it, so the best thing you can do is to just be careful when handling it (or playing with the figure) or buy another one and hope for something better lol.  |

I remember being slightly disappointed with the BCA LOD figures. Don't get me wrong, I still liked them cause they were LOD figures, but for 2 of the strongest most dominant men in tag team wrestling their figures looked kinda out of shape lol. I remember using the Shotgun series figures more than the regular ones, and just switching the shoulder pads every now and then. I would however use the tag team series Animal when doing the Doomsday Device.

I never knew about the arms, thats crazy. I like 'em. If I wasn't busy trying to get rid of my collection then I'd probably love to do a BCA one

My favorite LOD were the Tag Team series one set.I still remember marking out for them and the Godwins (most likely the only time you will ever hear that lol) when i first seen them at TRU.
I also remember finding the Shotgun series LOD at TRU.I was excited because of there black shoulder pads but when i got home i was sad because Hawk had loose legs and Animal had loose arms.

Hey Chicago, I just found a lot on ebay featuring a Steve Austin BCA in jeans that has what appears to be Owen Hart arms. Not the usual part choice for Austin.
Can easily be found by searching "lot rock steve austin"
Also, for anyone interested, I found a guy selling various BCA's including some 4 or 5 figure lots, decently priced. One of those lots is a 4 figure HBK lot featuring series 1 or 3 HBK in the blueish/greenish tights , Slammer HBK black chaps and red tights, DTA HBK with red DX tights, and Slammer HBK with black chaps and blue tights. The lot is spelled Shawn Micheals...may help when searching for it.

I finally got my hands on a Road Rage Al Snow MOC for $5.00 from a flea market. I just wish my camera was not broken.

ive found with loose joints, the best way is to use super glue but you gotta be careful to make sure it doesnt run.

Thought it may have been a rare use of parts, cause never seen it before. I've seen that box set but haven't looked close enough to notice the Owen arms on Austin before. |

that is such a trash set.. a hodgepodge part Austin with painted chaps.. Paul Wight as a referee (when would THAT be useful for a figure fed) and that horrible Vince with clip on suit. Hated that clip on suit so much as a kid and still do.. But it does come with AWESOME accessories. a single guardrail!! wow! I feel really sorry for anyone who paid the "special" price of $19.99 for that. That's a stupid price to this day. In 1999 when figures were $5-$6 each, it's a intellectually- disabled price

That Austin is hilarious. I never knew they reused the Warrior torso either

I think I may have paid under $10 for that set, but it is nothing to write home about.
The least they could have done was to give Vince tan or black repainted suit pieces.

So Austin has white arms with elbow pads over top that aren't painted?? So was this supposed to be the cancerous growth in the arms Steve Austin figure?? Cause how else could you explain to why he has two bulging elbows??

I guess i was one of very few people that bought this set the first time i saw it.I only bought it for two reasons:
1. Big Show
2. Guardrail
If i remember right that austin was also in Fully Loaded series 2 and it came with a leaf blower.

I agree that set was trash, but I am guilty in buying it for one reason:
Vince McMahon - I need him to add to my loose Undertaker, Sable & Vince BCA collection.

Well at least i remember it came with a leaf blower lol. I seen one at a flea market a few weeks ago but the guy wanted $18.00 besides that i don't see that many bca figures near me. |
