If its tag belts or shoulder pads, I'll take the shoulder pads. I agree. But if it's Rubber shirts or Tag Belts, I'm taking the belts!

Yeah the pricing for these belts is absolutely ridiculous. These titles (along with the other 90's belts) are the most iconic championships ever in professional wrestling. Mattel releases 20 versions of the Winged Eagle belt, and equal amounts of the classic Intercontinental Championship... but we get 1 version of the Tag Team Championships with a subpar tag team half the wrestling fans alive don't even know about? Then you release New Age Outlaws, Legion of Doom and others with no belts. Seriously MattelDesignTeam can you give us some insight on this?

I'd love a set of the tag titles to put on my NAO.
I also wish they would put the Divas title out again. I'd like to have one for AJ but I'm not paying the $40 they go for on Ebay.

Well, they first have to include it with a team marketable enough to release in Elite. We've had LOD and NAO recently, but with LOD they understandably chose the shoulder/forearm pads and for NAO, I guess they want to have each DX member have a DX shirt. I would have much preferred the tag belts with them, though.
APA is the best place to include them, I think. They never really wore anything fancy, whether it was their later street gear or the Acolyte look. I figure if they do get around to the Hart Foundation, they'll probably have jackets instead. Bulldogs would be another good memorable tag team to include them with, but I don't think they have Dynamite Kid's rights.

I only have one. Each team fights each other to hold a single tag belt. I hope these get released again. Don't understand Mattels logic here .

Oh yea, I would rather have Pads on LOD then belts!!! Teams / People we could get the belts with in the future: Dudley's Hardy's Edge and Christian Brothers of Destruction Kane / X PAC Kane / Mankind Austin / HHH Austin / Dude Love The Rockers Dudes with Attitude Taz / Spike Dudley Too Cool APA The Steiners Hart Foundation Ultimate Maniacs Powers of Pain Hogan/ Macho Man Owen Hart / Jeff Jerrett NAO The Brood The New Brood The Unamericans T&A There are so many options!!!

I refuse to spend the price of a elite figure, just for the accessories. Especially when its through the scalpers on ebay, 40 for the accessory, ugh so frustrating. Hopefully Mattel release them down the line, however I don't think its a big deal that they haven't yet. I'd hardly call it ignoring, just busy with other stuff. There is SO MUCH stuff for them to release, it wont all happen over night. Be patient

looks like to me mattel or ringside could sell belts any that you need for your figures and make money for both mattel and ringside any belt you would need

I have one set on my Outlaws, after being on Demolition for the longest time. But as soon as Hawk & Animal get here they're getting them for good. It would be nice to be able to have multiple teams all with tag titles.

If you don't care about the guys that actually carried the titles then why do you want them?
Also I don't see your reasoning in saying more money for Mattel? Mattel's made all they are going to make on their figures as soon as the retailers have paid for their orders...so adding the titles to figures isn't going to make Mattel anymore money. It's going to take more money from their budget.

That'd be cool if Wicked Cool Toys could handle the belts as well as the ASR, maybe they could bother for the old WCW designs as well, or at least meet the demand of the consumers since Mattel is so selective with what belts get produced.

I wish they would re release both Arn and Tully. Kicking myself for not ordering them.

Looking at the list of tag team champions here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_Tag_Team_Champions_%28WWE%29just based on figures we know that they can make right now, these are the teams that they could do in the elite line as flashbacks and include the titles: Demolition (Ax & Smash) - would be good to go with the recent Crush figure Marty Jannetty & 1-2-3 Kid - assuming Jannetty is still signed as we know X-Pac is signed Money Inc (Million $ Man & I.R.S.) - Rotundo is an agent with WWE so I believe he is covered by the deal between WWE and Mattel Shawn Michaels & Diesel - New outfit for Michaels and another chance at Diesel for those that missed him the first time Steve Austin & Undertaker Kane & X-Pac Unholy Alliance (Undertaker & Big Show) Now with just a few additional people signed we could see: Acolytes/APA - Farooq & Bradshaw British Bulldogs - Dynamite Kid & Davey Boy Smith Hart Foundation - Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart and if Mick Foley would resign we have different combinations of Cactus Jack/Dude Love/Mankind along with Rock, Undertaker, Kane, & Terry Funk/Chainsaw Charlie However I would love for them to go on a signing spree and make Nasty Boys Natural Disasters Steiner Brothers Hardy Boyz Dudley Boyz
