I think I'm gonna call the cops because that's a steal. BCA 4 packs are awesome.

That's a great deal. The BCA boxed sets were great up until a point. I feel like they really started getting lazy with their boxed sets as the line went on.
This set was cool because it featured the first Bret Hart figure without glasses; plus, it was released prior to these figures being released individually.

Great finds, JDSFullmetal! I know I would probably drop at least $20 on the Raw Is War 4-pack if I were to come across it in person. That's a great deal. The BCA boxed sets were great up until a point. I feel like they really started getting lazy with their boxed sets as the line went on. This set was cool because it featured the first Bret Hart figure without glasses; plus, it was released prior to these figures being released individually. You're right about it being the first BCA Bret Hart figure without glasses, but neither this nor the King of the Iron Rungs 4-pack figure were ever released on a singles card. The closest to it would be the Best of '97 Series 1 figure that was exclusive to Toys"R"Us stores, except it has a standard Superstars Series 1/Series 3 body. This kind of detail on the sides of BCA Bret Hart's boots and tights can only be found in the Raw Is War and King of the Iron Rungs boxed sets.  Other exclusives in this set are Sunny's pink outfit, Sid's purple trunks, and an exceptionally gray-haired variant of Vince McMahon that was once said to have been recalled because the man himself did not approve of it. I've heard that there may only be 4,000 or so in existence. Here's a picture of my variant Vince.  It's the exact same as his common Ringside Collection Series 1/Series 2 figure, except Vince is starting to show signs of stress.  |

Thanks for that info chicago. I never knew that bout the Vince or Bret. I had this set as a kid, but my set didn't come with that version of Vince. Another thing I need to add to my collection

Cool find, my most recent flee market find was a 4 dollar WWE Shop Exclusive John Cena, only thing missing was the chain. It was the only Jakks Cena I cared to have, good condition also.

I always wondered, was that Jakks trying to make Sid have the dark blue look for his trunks, or were they supposed to be purple??

I always wondered, was that Jakks trying to make Sid have the dark blue look for his trunks, or were they supposed to be purple?? Great question. I cannot for the life of me think of a time when Sid wore purple trunks in his second run with the WWF. The closest match would probably be in May 1995 when he wore blue trunks. If Jakks were going for that look, they could have simply re-used the Superstars Series 3 figure. Since they didn't do that, I guess you could say there was a concerted effort made to set this Sid figure apart from all the rest. Also, I've noticed differing shades of light/dark purple used for Sid's trunks while researching this set, which makes me think another variation could exist for all of the BCA collectors out there. Check it out (and also note the difference in Vince McMahon's hair color):   |

A flee market is when you have to flee because the fleas have become giant mutated monsters...

That Bret, along with Chyna and Triple H, are pretty awesome. I would've bought them for $25 so that was a helluva good deal.

Anything above $28 for a MIB set is a little too much, but still acceptable in my book. |
