The clue is in the title...
Are we going to get a belt representative of the event that the figure is based on?
There was lots of negative feedback on this belt. now that some time has passed since toy fair, is it being rectified?
We want a black winged eagle and/or yellow intercontinental, or whats the point of another flawed Wrestlemania 6 figure?

I think we're getting the yellow IC. Saw it at ToyFair.

I'm confident it will be correct. It isn't even that difficult of a thing to research and get right, and I just can't see Mattel making such a careless error.

I'd be willing to bet that it will be the correct Winged Eagle belt. Though, ideally, it would come with both belts.

Him coming with both belts would be very cool! I remember him making the belt white but did he ever have the world belt with the yellow strap too?

I'd be fine with the yellow WWF title as in the Toyfair pics. It's a decent combination of the two belts he had on the night.

Although I'm a Mattel mark, I have to say, that if you obviously already have the molds for both belts and this Warrior isn't placed in the DM line, then do the right thing and give us an accurate winged-championship belt. Better yet, surprise us and include both belts (incl. yellow strap IC belt). Anything other than this would be a disappointing move on Mattel's part.

i dont care about the belt. i love the warrior but im probably gonna pass anyway. i think the bigger issue is the second set of chest paint. i thinks its unnecessary. the paint on the chest seems to fit completely and there is no need to put another thing underneath just to get the two bottom points.

If the second set of chest paint remains on the final version, it's a simple step to acetone it off.

I'd be fine as long as they fix the words on the belt. What did it say again? It looks like they took an actual Warrior promo quote and put it on there.

I would be fine with the historically inaccurate yellow winged-eagle belt. But I certainly understand those who well remember WM6 feeling like something's amiss. For me, I just think it looks cool. However, I won't be the least bit excited to get a THIRD classic IC belt before we get a winged-eagle (Mr. Perfect, L4 Warrior, and now this one). But it's not like the belt will cost me any extra.

*CORRECT* world title was on Black strap at WM6.. **BUT**.. all the promo pics they did before WM with warrior had him wearing the winged eagle with the Yellow strap.. incl the magazine cover and soooo many pics used for a variety of promo tv, print, toy spots
but i hear ya in his wm6 attire it would be nice to have it with black winged eagle and yellow ic so i can display him holding up his shredded jakked arms pumped up w/ the straps brother!

Are you sure about this? Do you have any reference pics of any promo material? Because I swear he was wearing a yellow strapped IC belt in the promos leading up to WM6. Official Poster: I've only seen the Winged Eagle in black, baby blue, and white. Why do we call it "Winged Eagle"? Don't eagles already have wings?

Wrong. Hogan had the Winged Eagle leading up to WM6, not Warrior. Warrior had a yellow IC belt, not Winged EAgle. Why would he have the World Title in pictures leading up to WM6 when he didn't even win the title til WM6?
