pay the elite retail price for the basic 29 series if the figures came with belts? The only reason I ask this is becuase there would have to be a price raise if the following belts were included...
Ultimate Warrior - Winged Eagle Eddie Guerrero - Undisputed Stone Cold - Round Attitude Era Big Show - World Heavyweight John Cena - WWE Shiny CM Punk - WWE Dull
I think mattel should have done this, I would have bought all of them.

You'd lose a USP from the Elites if you started including titles with Basics. I'm aware they've done it with a few sets, but they should stay with the Elite line.

No. The belts would have been dull and colorless anyway, and plus I can't think of any belts any of those men could have come with that we don't already have.
People who pay insane prices for Basics really need to rethink that, because except for guys who didn't get Elites (which every man in Basic 29 DOES have at least 1 Elite), every Elite is better than the Basic that preceded it.
That's why as much as I want Basic 28 Damien Sandow, I refuse to pay internet prices for it because I know he's got an Elite that I'm going to get. So unless I find Damien Sandow at retail, I'll wait for the Elite.

Not really. Seeing they screwed the Austin up so bad there are only 3 figures I want from series 29, but none are worth $16-$18 to me.

But let's assume in this series EVERY figure came with a VAC sealed and painted belt. I'm still not paying Elite prices for Basic figures with belts we already have. Cena - Spinner WWE Championship Punk - Spinner WWE Championship Austin - Smoking Skull WWF Championship or Big Eagle WWF Championship Big Show - World Heavyweight Championship Eddie - Undisputed WWE Championship Ultimate Warrior - Winged Eagle WWF Championship The only thing that could have been accomplished would have been to get the VAC Sealed Smoking Skull and Big Eagle belts at retail as they have only been on the RSC Austin at this point. A dull unpainted Big Eagle was in a Target 4-pack.

It's ideas like these that take away from Elites. Also, everything else!
