I love the concept of the 1/1000 belts on every new face in the line, but those belts just look stupid.

I think the belts look great. Mattel designed them as a nod to the Classic WWF title (and I don't mean the Winged Eagle).
It is an innovative way to introduce the new line and new figures to the line.
I would take these well thought out belts over the small "Premier 100" logo that appeared on Jakks UFC figures.

So does that mean Mickie James will have that giant gold belt around her little waist in the 3rd basic wave? That would be cool. I am glad that everyone's first Basic fig will be available in 1/1000 form! If Mattel sticks to what they said then... Yes, She'll have one. Cool. I hope they do stick with their own rules.

So when will the 1/1000 thing slow down? It should just be one guy like Jakks did....there's like no value to them if everybody continues to get one....that takes the fun out of it...it's not as big of a find as it was when you found a Jakks one knowing 999 other people have found one...I just feel like it's overkill with the 1/1000 thing already.

Knowing you're only 499/500 is cooler than 1,000. I mean how often would you see someone post a 1/500 finding? Rarely. This, every hour I check back someone else found one. Granted I loved when I found 2 of them, but I just feel like the fun is running out knowing that everybody is finding 1/1000 figures. I jut wish they were more limited...like what series is it not going to be every single guy? I understand it gets people out and purchasing them, but still....I just don't see the value in them lasting that long if everyone and their mother has one...

The point of them is not to be limited though, Its a belt showing the joining of mattel & WWE so they are out their so everyone has a chance to find one and be apart of them coming together with a free Commemorativegift. 1000 of each star gives you more chance of finding this belt with a superstar you like. Plus for non US'ers the more there is the lower the price will be so we can get one

Im glad they will have them. However i need a Kane 1/1000 so im not sure how i will get one, but it'd be great if someone could grab one for me. If i ever find one.... so far I have only one 1 of 1000 (big show)....its going to you. You are the most dedicated fan of a specific wrestler on here. You deserve it. I agree bout the belts, but as a collector I am going to buy them. It makes collecting more fun. I was stoked when I found the show.. literally felt like a lil kid on christmas.. I havent felt like that in a long time. It would definatly be better if it were actual belts. If i ever find one.... so far I have only one 1 of 1000 (big show)....its going to you.

Kaneisdaman gets my 1/1000 Kane if I find one. Thanks guys! Gotta get one (or two) somehow, someway. Appreciate the consideration.

I know it's to draw people new to the series, but series 2 is out now and they have belts and now series 3 I hear will have them. I know people will want one with their favorite superstar and stuff but I am just curious if it will ever become more limited like Jakks did?

I would take these well thought out belts over the small "Premier 100" logo that appeared on Jakks UFC figures. this... looks very,very similar to an older WWF Championship belt,first worn by Bob Backlund,then the Iron Sheik,and then Hulk Hogan... Sheik with the belt: first LJN Hogan also came with a version of the title...

Well its only a new superstar to the series that get one so if HHH is in say series 5 he wont come with the belt again, so in effect there is only 1000 HHH's to be found and had. So i guess they will start fading out in sooner or later, as the series go on not everyone will come with one since cena, HHH ect are bound to be coming out again. Always a chance they will do another promotion that is more limited later on.

I'm pretty sure they said at the fall Toy Fair that the 1/1000s would last all the way through this year.
