I just stumbled upon this pic. I've never seen this version of xpac before and would've guessed that they stopped making the original BCAs by the time pac wore this attire. anyone know which series it was from and who else was in it? im going to guess it was an exclusive set to kb or something along those lines.  |

This was one of the KB exclusives. Don't remember which series number though.

It's from Backlash Series 5, a.k.a. the very last series of original BCA figures that was released exclusively at KB Toys and Family Dollar department stores in October 2001. Other exclusive repaints in that series include Al Snow, Hardcore Holly (with Crash Holly image on insert), The Rock, "Steve Austin Stone Cold" and Undertaker. Test is in it too, but his figure is simply a Backlash Series 3 re-release, not an exclusive repaint. Here are some MOC pics of the Series 5 figures:         Any idea if it says crash on the sides of his gear |

Those Taker, Austin, and Val Venis figures are pretty cool. In getting my education via Chicago here today.

Any idea if it says crash on the sides of his gear It does not. "Hardcore Holly" is printed in black on both sides of his trunks. The text is outlined in white on a pink background. No other BCA Holly figure uses this combination of colors. |

That is a nice as hell Austin figure there! Yeah and it even comes with a removable red baseball cap with yellow skull logo, so that's pretty cool too.     The skull logo on the back of his shirt could be better, but I like that Jakks thought enough of this series to include the 2001-era t-shirt design. |

Was that the one from the Backlash series? |

Yeah, that's the Backlash Series 3/Series 5 figure. Although Test didn't always have the silver logos on the sides of his pants, I consider it to be an upgrade from the plain black Fully Loaded Series 2 debut figure. I wish he were taller, though. |

Cool. I couldn't remember what set that was from. I wish they had continued to use the Slammers HBK legs for Test, those were bigger than the legs with the logos. |
