WCW US title is my most wanted, then WCW Tag Titles (ideally both version) then Cruiserweight, then Women's championship. The rest would be nice but are not essential to me. I know Mattel doesn't currently have the rights to classic WCW belts, but I'd really like them to work out a deal with the belts right holders - who have been quoted as saying they'd be happy to do a deal with Mattel, but have not even been asked. This x a million. But I do want the TV title as well. The ECW TV and Tag belts while we are at it. THQ and 2K always make it happen, I bet it'd be cheaper than mattel thinks. Mattel might not be able to do deals with the owners of the belts that they can't do. WWE might have to do the deal and somehow insert Mattel being able to make them into the deal or something.

Would love to see all of these title belts made but my picks where of course the World, early '90's tag team, and TV title who they come with depends on Mattel, I mean surfer Sting w/ World Booker T. or Stunning Steve Austin w/ TV title and either Harlem Heat or the Steiner Bros.!!!! It may never happen but who knows?]QUAGMIRE WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU...SOMEONE KEEPS SHOUTING AND CAN YOU TURN DOWN YOUR SIGNATURE? IT'S KEEPING THE BABY UP AT NIGHT! I'm sorry is this more to your liking, this has been my gimmick for quite a while so don't be a you know what? As for my signiture being loud hey what can I say but who else but QUAGMIRE!!!!!QUAGMIRE

I want to see Mattel release an 89 Lex Luger with the US title. That's my favorite WCW title belt of all time.

We know why we dont have WCW belts. Not entirely true. We know Mattel doesn't currently have the rights, but we don't know why they seemingly won't even attempt to license them, which is part of the frustration. People make guesses and act like that's case closed on the mystery, but the truth is Mattel has never clarified what the specific problem is, despite many attempts by WF members during Q&As and other interactions with Mattel. All we ever get out of Mattel is "we don't have the rights" - which we know already and isn't really the question being asked.

Gonna send this to the box. That wasn't the Simpsons clip I expected, but it was certainly a perfect fit. Haha.

Mattel has stated that they will not sign exclusive contracts for their toy line. If its not under the WWE banner then it wont be made. This includes WCW Titles as Mattel has stated that they would have to sign a deal with the owners of the designs. Its been stated numerous times.

And this is perfect example of the "clutter" on the board. We know why we dont have WCW belts. We know most people will want them. And for those that "dont" want them they dont care anyway....Yet here we are, with another pointless "WCW Belts" thread knowing that they wont be made. Its not even a "fun discussion". If you want a fun discussion, go read the other umpteen threads/polls that have been done on the same topic. If you don't like this thread, then don't reply. Just move on.

Or you could have just posted in one of the umpteen WCW Belt threads we've had. Luckily this is in the suggestion board now where it will ultimately die like the rest of the clutter.

This includes WCW Titles as Mattel has stated that they would have to sign a deal with the owners of the designs. Its been stated numerous times. While it's true Mattel aren't currently signing deals with talent directly, and it wouldn't be much of a stretch to assume doing a deal with the WCW belts rights holders would fall under the same rules (though you are just guessing this, it's not actually been stated), still that would not explain why they can't request WWE sorts out a deal so they can make the WCW belts, exactly the way they have WWE sort out deals with talent so they can make flashback figures. All that Mattel has stated is that they don't [currently] HAVE the rights, and the belts holders have stated they would be happy to do a deal to license them - but have not been asked. What has not been stated is WHY can Mattel or WWE seemingly not make a deal to GET the rights? WHY have the belts rights holders not even been approached? WHY is this problem treated as being impossible to solve and must be swept under the rug and anyone who asks about it gets dismissed and snapped at?
