Anyone know what heavyweight belt goes best with this Hogan?  I'm a display collector so I want to have a good heavyweight belt to put with this figure when it arrives. Jakks produced a decent 84-85 style belt I'm thinking of using and I have an extra Mattel Hogan 86 belt. Here's what I've found. All three wearing blue, all three with different titles. I know from 84-86 he had 4-5 different heavyweight belt designs. The Hogan 84 belt (after the green belt he won from Sheik):  The Hogan 85 belt (during his tag match with Mean Gene):  The classic Hogan 86 belt:  Is there a particular match the RSC Hogan attire is based on that would narrow down which belt is most accurate? |

Well we have the belt from the last picture and it will fit PERFECTLY on that American Hogan as it's the exact same mold as DM.

The first pic to me looks the closest to the figure, so the 84/85 belt that Jakks made would work wonderful plus give it a different feel than the DM figure. Price wise I don't think it's to much if you don't already have one.

That first pic is probably the first pic I have seen of this figure that makes me want to order it.

Mean Gene wrestled? Well, that's the shock of this thread!
In answer to your question, I would say the '85 belt. But the '86 belt will lok just as good on him, I think.
