Good afternoon BCA collectors!
So i was thinking about BCA box sets and my favorites and what everyone else has a their favorite.
I have the Bad To The Bones box set w/Stone Cold but one i recently picked up and is definetly my all time is the Survivor Series box set with Ultimate Warrior w/green trunks, Bret Hart, Shawn Micheals, and Goldust.
Now im not sure about alot of box sets out there but maybe somebody with more knowledge can help me with the BCA line. Is there a rare or limited box set made? One I think is rare is the Buried Alive Set w/ the executioner figure. Its also a pretty nice box set as well.
So what's one box set you have or maybe one you just think is a awesome piece?

Good afternoon BCA collectors! So i was thinking about BCA box sets and my favorites and what everyone else has a their favorite. I have the Bad To The Bones box set w/Stone Cold but one i recently picked up and is definetly my all time is the Survivor Series box set with Ultimate Warrior w/green trunks, Bret Hart, Shawn Micheals, and Goldust. So what's one box set you have or maybe one you just think is a awesome piece? My favorite BCA boxed set is the original Championship Title Series 4-pack. It was exclusive to Toys"R"Us stores in the fall of 1997. I was nine years old when I received it as a gift on Christmas morning, 1997. I don't remember if I knew anything about it before that date, but I knew that it was something special. For the first time ever, I had a complete set of WWF championship belts for my figures. Looking back on it now as a 26 year old BCA collector, I can appreciate it the finer things like, well, the figures themselves! Here we have Undertaker's second ever BCA sculpt, Rocky Maivia's first BCA repaint and one-of-a-kind entrance gear, "Europeam Champion" British Bulldog's first BCA repaint, and "2x Slammy Award Winner" Owen Hart's second BCA repaint. The package art was simple yet bold. Not until Mattel released the Elite Series 15 Rey Mysterio figure had I felt Los Angeles Lakers colors were more appropriately used for a piece of wrestling merchandise. It very much represents all that Jakks Pacific had to offer at that time, and I think it serves as a great reminder, or time capsule if ya wheel, of the WWF's champions from late March to late April of 1997. Now im not sure about alot of box sets out there but maybe somebody with more knowledge can help me with the BCA line. Is there a rare or limited box set made? One I think is rare is the Buried Alive Set w/ the executioner figure. Its also a pretty nice box set as well. I have a complete list of BCA boxed sets here. Press CTRL-F and search for "WWF Boxed Sets" and the sub-section should be visible to you, or just scroll to the bottom of the page to find it. I wouldn't necessarily say that one BCA boxed set is more limited or exclusive than the rest. All of them were likely produced in the thousands and can easily be found in the $20-25 range on eBay. Some of the more valuable sets (re: those that will sell for $25-30+) are the aforementioned Survivor Series and Buried Alive 4-packs, along with (occasionally) Off The Mat, Mick Foley's Triple Threat, and the Perfect 10 boxed set.

That is a nice set! I know as a kid i wanted that survivor series so bad but it was out of my price range as a kid but now as a 30 yr old i was able to get it and my BCA's i wasnt able to get as a kid so i can def. agree with ya on the...it is something special! I got my survivor series for $90 and it is pretty mint compared to what i have seen on ebay. No creases, just very very small corner wear and iean small lol. Very happy with that find lol. I really want that buried alive set! It escapes me though so im still on the hunt as always.

So what do you think is the one box set that is not opened and original boxing and is hard to come by? It took me a while to come across an affordable Expect No Mercy 4-pack, which includes the only set of blue removable suit pieces made for Vince McMahon. Others that have eluded me for years that I still hope to buy someday include: Mankind's Grapple Gear set, Stone Cold's Belt and Figure set, both Sam's Club Exclusive 4-packs (Go Mental and Shotgun Saturday Night), and the JCPenney Exclusive Ultimate Collection 4-pack (Slammers figures with facsimile signatures). And that's just the tip of the iceberg for me.

I've always like the DX Wiseguyz boxed set, just because of how odd it is. I mean, the figures are based on a one-time WWF magazine photo shoot. I love the look of the suits.

The only BCA box set I ever saw (being that I am from Canada) was the 3 Faces of Foley BCA box set.
I remember I marked out huge when I saw it. I didn't care for the fact that 2 out of the 3 figures were Slammer style ones, but the simple fact that Cactus Jack WAS a BCA was freaking awesome!
But that was the only BCA box set I ever seen here.
We had Sears BCA figures, in the Wish Book, where you get the monster ring and like 4 repainted figures, but that's it.
