Bret hart and undertaker bca series 2 were my first two figures. I also now own a set of the prototypes (coolest things I own next to the unreleased alien wrestling federation figures). Following those, When I was a kid I had my dad order 123 kid, razor Ramon, and diesel from the ad in a wrestling magazine (I think the ad was for rsc) thinking they would be BCA style. Was very disappointed when they arrived and saw they were small bendy guys. Bendems

I don't remember exactly which ones came first for me, but they were Hasbros, which I'm sure I've mentioned. I got two at the same time, and I believe they were Jake and Brutus but I just don't remember anymore.

Rick Martel vs Baron Von Raschke from Remco. Followed almost immediately by the Remco Fabulous Ones and High Flyers sets. Shorty after those i bought my first 3 LJNs in Hulk Hogan, Big John Studd, and Jimmy Snuka. I still remember being picked up from school on the last day of 1st grade and being rewarded for "graduating" to 2nd grade with the Remco 3 pack of the Road Warriors and Paul Ellering, accompanied by a Kids Classics Road Warriors AWA video tape. Its amazing how i could tell you every figure i got back then.....through now.....and any stories or circumstances behind them. But i couldnt tell you what i had for lunch today.......ahhhh......priorities......lol

There's a picture of me when I was around a year old with an AWA Remco Ric Flair in my hands. I started at an early age!

I seem to remember my brother smashing up some figures, as some kids do I suppose, except for two which he gave to me, Hasbro Jake Roberts and Ultimate Warrior #1.

my first figures were the Road Warriors and the High Flyers from the AWA line in the 80s. I eventually got em all. I loved the old AWA figures. I used to incorporate He Man and dollar store wrestling figures into the feds. And I bought a lot of fake blood during the Halloween season. lol. But I got the Cage match ring as well with my first figures. It was my birthday. lol

Bunch of Hasbros for Christmas when I was 5 between me and my brother. I specifically remember getting the first Hogan and Ultimate Warrior, as well as Andre the Giant and Dusty Rhodes which we beat to crap.

Fun to read all those memories guys! Mines were the Hillbilly Jim vs Iron Sheik thumb wrestler two-pack. I remember really liking Hillbilly Jim as a character, but catching him maybe once or twice on TV and never seeing him back before getting wrestling DVDs as an adult

My first was a LJN Roddy Piper w. brown boots. My older bro always convinced me to get the heels, whilst he always got the likes of Hogan, Hillbilly Jim, Andre...........etc etc. My first babyface was Jimmy Snuka.
Anyways I ended up with them all..............lol

BCA Series 2 Vader and Warrior, got them both at the same time. Still have them to this day. I really like that specific Ultimate Warrior figure and I think it still looks pretty nice.
