I've wondered since I first saw this figure why Mattel did so little with it in terms of accessories. Ziggler's a character that has always been pretty eccentric and leaves plenty of options. And everything else aside, until I saw he came with the WH title, I had totally forgotten that he'd actually held it.
Just rambling, but it does look like they're making up for his based on the previews we've seen of his next elite.

He comes with a shiny gold belt after they stopped doing the shiny gold belts.
Also
Cody Rhodes comes with a bag, jacket, and mask.
Rey comes with a mask and shirt
Sheamus comes with a crown, robe, and club
Edge comes with glasses and a big ol' rubber coat.
Show with a shirt and a SES mask.
They might have just run out of money to include much more with Ziggler. I mean Cody's Mask, Sheamus' crown, and Show SES mask arn't really accessories that they just had laying around or that they can reuse the molds down the road.

Would have been nice to have it come with that silver duster with the cut of arms he use to wear. Next one (E19) looks like a masterpiece, still dont know how they are getting his ass cape to stay on the back like that.

Well considering that his last Elite was not as great I'd say just the figure itself was pretty impressive. The belt was just a nice bonus.

Well from the looks of it they are making up for it in elite 19! Can't wait!

Eccentric actually means a person who carries an odd behavior. In other words someone who is kooky.
Ziggler does have a ton of accessories these days though. Back then he really only wore a vest and had the WHC for a very, very brief time. It probably was not in Mattel's budget to give him anymore than that shined up belt.

I was most certainly saying that he's always had a lot of "kooky" accessories. I just don't think Mattel budget's for a line that irresponsibly. |

I don't mind since belts can be put on other figures. Or you can have a mic and one of those annoying rubber shirts.

Mattel probably spent the rest of the budget on the other accessories in the line-up. I prefer the shiny WHC anyways than a shirt.

I mean Cody's Mask, Sheamus' crown, and Show SES mask arn't really accessories that they just had laying around or that they can reuse the molds down the road. well techinically they did....since they cancelled the SES Punk for the elite series. Then RSC picked it up as an exclusive. They probably did have them laying around. I think the shiny WHC was the first one released w/ a figure. The only other one at that point came w/ an expensive playset. So it made sense |

At that time this figure was added to lineup Dolph stopped wearing the entrance vest he wore on his first Elite figure. It was a bit difficult to come up with a meaningful accessory to add so the WHC he held briefly made the most sense.

Actually, I liked the mask that came with show more than the RSC one. It even fit a bit better.
