Ive seen 4 superstars hold that new title, each with its own customization (according to the superstar). Please tell me you guys plan on giving each superstar packaged with that title the customization. I know it didn't happen with the Rock, but since that's the first release, its prob better it didn't. However, guys like Cena, Bryan and Orton could certainly use the customization seeing their elites don't sell as fast as others... Just a thought...

There's zero chance this happens. It would take longer to produce and for such a minute detail there's no point in it.

They just leave the nameplate on the WHC belt blank, so I wouldn't expect this.

This will never happen nor should it. Unless you want to get a bunch of elite figures w/o accessories because they had to make individual tiny plates each time they make that belt.

to be fair, it only 2 side plates "/ the rest of the belt is the same, its not like we're asking for a full set of steps or tall ladder etc

i wouldnt want that. As cool looking as it would be i like to put the title on several different people that wouldnt have custom side plates. people who would never be wwe champ. Id rather stick with the wwe side plate.

As everyone has said, it would be too expensive to constantly make new molds for belts...good luck.

No chance, and fine with me. I switch my belts all the time. I do not want a belt with Viper sideplates. I'd rather them put their funds into something else.

I could see them doing it occasionally, as a special thing - for an exclusive here and there.... I mean, they made unique molds for belts before, Smoking Skull, Million Dollar Belt, etc.... this one would be easier, just take the regualar belt mold and alter the side plates.
I don't think they'll do it on any type of mass scale though. Neat idea, though...

I think the chances of this happening are 0%. They already cut corners for cost reasons do you honestly think they are going to spend the money to make individual side plates? I dont think so. Unless like someone else said they do it for an exclusive or something to that nature i dont seenit happening.

I am pretty sure they (MDT) already confirmed there is no plan to do that.

No thanks. Sounds like a horrible idea to me. More guys are going to win that title and I don't want to be stuck with wrestler specific titles for my figures. It's cool for Stone Cold, because he's Stone Cold, but outside of that it's just completely unnecessary and I hope Mattel never wastes the time, effort or money.

What a waste of budget. Even WWE isn't selling the authentic replica belts with personalization side plates.

MDT, please don't do this. I'd like to see the budget used in more productive ways.

They could make side plates with flat circles and paint the superstar specific designs on them. It'd be a neat thing to do every year for the WWE Champion in the TRU WrestleMania Elite line.
The normal belt would still have many releases in the regular Elite line.

MDT have all ready said they aren't planning on doing this, so no chance of it happening.

If they don't paint them, it's pointless. But from a marketing perspective...maybe it could help sales a tad? I dunno. I think if they ever did an online exclusive of someone with that title, it should definitely be personalized. Otherwise, I like it generic.

They never even changed the sideplates on the spinner belt, they'll never change the plates on the new belt.

Maybe for an RSC exclusive every once in a while, but I dont think this will ever happen in the main line.

They could mold sideplates with just a flat circle and put stickers with the design on them so they wouldn't have to make a mold for each one.
