I really haven't seen this discussed here, but what does everyone think Mattel will do with championship belts? I mean, it's a little early to speculate, but what does everyone want?
Do you think we'll see pre-painted belts or just plain gold? Would you rather they made them like Toybiz did the NWA/TNA titles with the... sort of peg-like closures, or the sort of notch style Jakks did?
And will we finally get a GOOD representation of the Intercontinental Title?
I'd just like to see what's on everyone's mind.

I didn't really like the TNA belts I could never get them to stay on. I'd like to see something like JAKKS just less cheap looking.

if every belt could be similar to a 1/500 belt it would be worth a few dollars more, imo. like a special belt series, do each show one by one.

i'd like to see something similar to what they did with the 1/1000 belts...not necessarily die-cast - plastic is fine - but with the fake leather straps with velcro...
also,i hope they paint them....

Well, accordingly to Mattel when they were interviewed at Ringside Fest, The rep said they are trying to make everything as closely authentic as possible. I'm not hoping for leather belts, but I am definitely thinking they'll be painted. Hopefully.

I never checked out the videos, and really just assumed they wouldn't touch on a subject like that. I'll have to check 'em out, thanks for the heads up!

Ideally, I'd like to see faux-leather & plastic belts with painted plates and velcro or snap closures.
Realistically, I think we'll get a mildly soft plastic or rubber strap with painted plastic plates and faux snaps.

I liked the TNA belts, I used them now. And the Japanese belts look good as well. I would prefer belts like the 1/500 as well. Either way Aslong as they lok good with the figures, the 1/1000 belts look too big on the Mattel figures.

I am anxiously anticipating what Mattel is going to do for belts, I just bought a Jakks World Heavyweight belt off of ebay..and while it works for now, it still just isn't right, and please, please, please Mattel make them painted
I am worried though they are going to make the nice painted belts come with only the elite line and basic crappy belts come with basic,
Curious to see what everyone thinks....

i hope they're like the 1 of 1000 belts, just smaller and accurate.

I hope they will be painted and soft material like the Jakks 1/500 belts or the choco gold coin belt.
Not the black plastic Jakks uses.

Yeah, I can really see them being along the lines of the 1/1000 belts, just not comically huge. That'll be a-okay with me.
