Yes I know this has been posted before so send as much hate mail as you can or reply to this thread with some stupid immature post.
Why did these belts fade to silver? This is my favorite wwe belt and just because it is, it has to have a problem. I have 2 of them, one is a custom with a felt like belt and looks perfect even though it faded a little but I just bought another one as I wanted the plastic belt, but this one is PURE silver, the seller kind of mislead me to believe it had some gold left on it.
Dumb question I know but is there any way to somehow get the gold finish back? My only other option is to either sell the silver one or replace the plates with the purple rock belt (which would suck as it is missing the writing on the top) why does mattel do that with re-released belts?
Thanks

Mine is silver now too but I don't think it looks too bad. It really needs released again, there are tons of options.

I've done nothing but display mine & it's also gone silver, I agree the problem needs to be fixed & the belt needs to be rereleased more often.

I had a extra ringside exclusive rock so I'm going to take the plates off the purple stap and put those on my black strap , personally I like vacuum metal belts , but the e16 oval Ic title isn't that bad

Mine is silver too. You can easily switch the plates from the purple ic title. But then you have to buy another rock  |

Thanks I think the metal on the first belts faded in light after awhile. My elite 8 belts are very silver. They changed the metal by elite 13. Once faded, there is no way to return its shine. If they ever release it again, tho, the plates will be much harder to fade. |

There's no reason a belt that's still MOC would have any better chance of staying gold. It's not like it's anymore protected from the elements. Those boxes aren't vacuum sealed.

That does look great even though the rock plates left out "World Wrestling Entertainment" on the top of the belt. I will be doing this very soon. |

So I just did his WWF debut match attire. (Blue tights) Mind sharing more pics of that Jericho from the side? Looks great. |
