I never bought a commerative belt but I think that you should just save up $60 more for a real one because imo it is worth it.

i dont even get what accryllic plastic is. to me it just sounds like properly porportioned plastic plates, same used for the foam belts, on fake leather.

It isn't a bad material but I just like the feel of the metal belt because it weighs more. But for a cheaper price I can see why people choose to go the commerative route. |

They look exactley the same as other replicas, they're just plastic.
You get what you pay for.

I went to spam last summer and got the chance to see the WHC and WWE Spinner plastic belts. They look pretty good tbh. In fact, I too am planning on getting the new ECW commemorative belt when I go back to spam this summer.

I've read that the belts don't bend very much. They remain stiffer/straighter than the regular replicas because the plastic isn't very heavy, compared to the metal that is usually used.

I actually own a commemorative replica of the WWE Championship...and it's not bad, but I've never even seen a real metal one in person...so yea. I just display the thing, and for the price, I feel like it's a really good value. The fake leather is pretty stiff; but I expected that. The plastic is pretty awesome. Not at all like the foam kids belts; and it's the same size as the real belt. For my purposes, I'm really pleased with the quality of it.

If you're gonna spend $100+++ on a nice belt, go for a real metal one. You only live once, just go for it!

I got the commemorative WWE spinner belt. Now, if you are on a budget I highly recommend it. It photographs perfectly, looks exactly like the real one, spins great, even has a magnet to keep the logo straight which the real one doesn't have I believe. I have had mine for a year and the jewels haven't come off, some people say they do but mine have never. The strap is not stiff. It buckles in the back so the stiffness of the strap doesn't matter if you are wearing it or putting it on your shoulder. It's lightweight, it's perfect.
The World Heavyweight one I hear the rivets pop off because the plates are curved. Curved plates and a stiff strap don't play nice. Same probably with the ECW one because it's bigger a nd has curved plates. The WWE Spinner would be the one to get though if you were to get one for sure.

I own the Commemorative Spinner Belt and when I have taken it to live events people cannot tell the difference between that and the replica version that runs close to $400.
I say it's worth the $100 that you'll end up spending, I will agree with other posters though that the strap is quite a bit stiffer than the replica leather on the standard versions.
