Very nice. It seems the 1/1000 are pretty easy to find right now. here's hoping I can find a 1/1000 Triple H next time I'm out looking. If I happen to see another Cena I'll let you know.

Great. A lot of people are going to be finding these figs with the special belts. I hope I can find one.
But is it best to keep it MOC or to just open it? Does anyone know how much these 1/1000 figs would be worth MOC?

I opened it. I can give a cr@p about the secondary market. I buy them figures because I like them not for what they might be worth someday. I had my wife pick it up because I wanted the figure and I'm a loose collector...So I opened it.

I'm going to have to go check my local TRU's and maybe even Target and Wal-Mart to see if I can come across some Mattel's, hopefully I have some luck in my area but even if I don't we only have less than two weeks to wait. It would be cool to come across a 1/1000 figure though, however I am not going to be seeking them out, but if I come across one I'll buy it and toss it up on eBay or something and then use the money to buy future Mattel figures.

I love the fact that the 1/1,000 belt comes with different figures in the series; rather than just only one figure having the 1/500 belt like how it was with Jakks.

Yeah i like that as well , i personally like in the first set that every figure has 1000 belts and not just one like you said and that there are 6000 belts all together

Yeah i like that as well , i personally like in the first set that every figure has 1000 belts and not just one like you said and that there are 6000 belts all together I totally think Mattel saw the aggravation and the disappointment that collectors had throughout Jakks Chase Belt promotion because they were to limited. Not to mention the distribution was uneven as well since some people would find like 5 or 6 within a few months or even 2 within the same store in one shot while others couldn't and still haven't found any to this day. I got lucky with the Jakks line and found 4 in stores and traded for 2 others so I ended up with 6. But Mattel did a good thing and putting out 1000 of each superstar with a chase belt and lets everyone get a shot at getting them. Even better, it will screw the scalpers who go out and try to hoard them all just to sell them for 10 times the cost. Another plus is that they numbered each one individually to make everyones unique. Big props to Mattel.

The 1/1000 belt is so ugly! It looks like a big oversized chocolate coin.
If i was in the US and found one, i would flip it on Ebay in an instant.
