Head back in time and request something from your favorite Jakks line! 10/24/95 to 12/31/09 The Jakks WWF/WWE license gave us many memorable characters and concepts brought to life in action figure form. If you could go back in time and request a figure, ring, accessory, weapon, or play set that Jakks never made, what would it be? Remember to keep your suggestions to any and all Jakks WWF or WWE products from 1996 to 2009 (the October 1995 date above is from when Jakks Pacific and WWF entered into a licensing agreement).

Here's my first suggestion for a Jakks BCA figure set that I would have liked to have seen make it to production. Ministry of Darkness 4-pack (Wal-Mart Exclusive, Due Out July 1999)Undertaker (2 Tuff Series 5 re-release) Viscera (2 Tuff Series 5 re-release) Farooq (new sculpt) Bradshaw (new sculpt) This once-rumored boxed set of BCA figures had a scheduled release date, and prototype images were sent to various toy sites by the WWF Development Team at Jakks, in the summer of 1999. Below is the lone surviving image of Bradshaw's prototype figure, an obvious work in-progress, as it was presented by Raving Toy Maniac on July 19, 1999. The whereabouts of Farooq's prototype figure are unknown. Though the initial July 1999 release date had come to pass with no Ministry 4-pack in sight, Ringside Collectibles' own Figure Insider reported in early August 1999 that it was due to arrive at Wal-Mart stores later that month. Unfortunately, by the end of August 1999, some figure sites were already reporting that the Ministry of Darkness 4-pack had been cancelled. The news was all but confirmed as Jakks unveiled Titan Tron Live figures in the fall of 1999, and no new BCA sculpts were scheduled for the remainder of the year. Another significant factor proved to be the group's disbanding on WWF TV months earlier. It seems more than likely now that Undertaker and Viscera were to be the exact same figures as their 2 Tuff Series 5 2-pack, a set that wasn't released to stores until September 1999, or about a month after the Ministry 4-pack had been pulled. I can only imagine what original BCA Acolytes figures would have looked like when completed. New BCA Acolytes? Well, that's a story for another day.

I dont know if it was ever even discussed, but I would've loved a Dirty Dutch Mantell figure.An Arn Anderson/Larry Zybisco Enforcers two pack would've been great too.

Ripped and Ruthless Series 3. I think it was supposed to be Chyna, Owen Hart, Shamrock and somebody else can't remember. Might of been the Rock?
