  • It's here!! 1998 was the year the wrestling wars were heating up -- both on the television and in toy aisles! WCW figures were made by Original San Francisco Toy Makers and WWF figures by Jakks Pacific! Over 60+ different WWF wrestlers would have an action figure at retail in 1998 in the Bone Crunching Action line, but with the birth of the Stone Cold Era, most collectors were looking to find Steve Austin!
    Join FC as we look back on EVERY WWF figure release in 1998 in Chapter 2 of Bone Crunching Action History!
    As a wrestling collector myself, I've stood by and watched Hasbro's WWF line soak in all the nostalgic glory, and rightly so! But its time for Bone Crunching Action to get the recognition it deserves. With our three chapter BCA series we will leave nothing uncovered!

    October 15: Part 2 (1998) (that's this video!)

    These were the best action figures back in the 90s. I liked when WCW changed their bulky action figures to have moving joints.

    This was the era where I got into collecting. I dove into the box sets, which were awesome for a new collector jumping in because right off the bat I could have four of the main guys I saw on TV all at once. Superstars 6 was such a good set, with that new Owen and HHH being highlights, and leading into the Superstars 7 series that remains one of my favorites. Great video!

    I remember back in the to the mid to later part of the 70's. Mego Superheroes action figures were my all-time favorite toys back then, that is until the movie Star Wars came out. Then the entire world of action figures changed forever. Playsets, speeders, ships like the X-Wing Fighters the Tie Fighters, and even the Millennium Falcon and the Death Star were made. Crazy aliens, Taun-Tauns, Jabba the Hutt, and so many more. After the Empire Strikes Back was released, I was entering High School and action figures and "Toys" were for kids. Wrestling was always popular in our state. We had the AWA's All-Star Wrestling show. But then like everywher else the wwf became popular. During those years I missed out on a LOT of really good action figures. The DC Superpowers collections, followed by these wrestling. I eventually got back into collecting Star Wars and Marvel Legends, the Toy Biz figures, but again I missed out on a lot of really cool and unique figures. It was really great time for toy lovers/collectors and especially for kids.

    I had a few of these. These were on the way out when I got into wrestling figures as a kid. The Titan Tron figures were the main line. I had that attitude ring but it was repackaged as a Wrestlemania ring

    I certainly didn’t appreciate Slammers at the time because I didn’t like the action features but now I kinda want them all over again.

    • @CaptainMcKayRandom
      @CaptainMcKayRandom 2 года назад +1

      I wasn’t thrilled with them myself, but as a kid it was my only way to get Bret, so I made the most of it. Plus the slammers Faarooq could do a sick dominator haha.

    • @bashcrash9148
      @bashcrash9148 2 года назад +3

      I remember being so pumped for that Kane figure. Also, The Patriot was used as “masked” Kurt Angle until we got a proper TTL version of him.

    Man, if you were collection back then, it looks like there were a TON of sets, with 2 or 3 figures you'd already own but would have to buy again to get the one new guy. I would've hated that. lol.

  • @brianmuir8783
    @brianmuir8783 Год назад

    Out of all of the WWF, WCW, and ECW, this figure line was my least favorite line at the time because they had nobody. All they kept doing or repaints and re-releases but now I do custom BCA figures and I find that they are the best to work with. So what I did was I went back and I created most of the roster from 1996 until 2000 I only make customs of those figures that they never released. I never made an Undertaker or a Stone Cold Steve Austin but I did make a Savio Vega pre-nation of domination, Jim the Anvil Neidhart, Terry Funk Dory Funk Jr the radicals Etc. Whoever they didn't make I make now.

    it would've been great if Toybiz got the wcw license two years earlier, we could've had Vincent, Dusty, Rick Rude, Glacier, Mortis, Alex Wright, though the trouble with a huge roster is they don't get to everybody regardless of time
    Also, I remember finding Kane at a Meijer back in the day, they only had duds from that series on the peg, I got suspicious and climbed up the shelves and blindly smacked my hand up on the riser and BINGO I got that Kane!
