So I was thinking today, I can't wait to get my hands on all the new titles.
Would yo purchase a pack of titles from RSC if it included all the titles? And how much would you pay???
I'd ante up $20.00 for that set.

I was just thinking this. Depending on the belts I'd pay up to $35 to $40.

I mean. The hardcore belt itself goes for 30. I have that, the ruthless raw and smackdown belts. I'm only missing the internet title. I'm very fortunate to have the hardcore and ruthless raw and smackdown tag belts.

I think Bill said in the past that just a 5 pack of belts would be like 50 dollars or something and it wasn't cost effective and a belt is kind of a incentive to buy a figure as well.

Thats a fun idea for sure but I don't know of it would happen. Mattel use belts to sell figures , if people can buy all the ones they want then they lose.some.selling leverage

Hey Ill take "Things that will never happen" for $200 Alex.
Belts sell figures, Figures sell rings. Its corporate math. They arent in business to help us save money. People spent $35-40 to get a Dusty Rhodes that came with a ring. People spend $20-30 for a figure to get a title that doesnt come with anyone else. Theyll even buy multiples.

Would be an awesome idea but I cant see it happening bc Mattel uses those belts as a way to sell figures.

Oh right, because they're vac-metallizing with solid gold- NO WAIT, THAT'S HOGWASH. lol No one would even need packaging for those things, just sell them in baggies directly from the Mattel Shop or whatever. I'd settle for non-shiny belts, I can just paint them myself if it saves me freakin' 50 bucks. I'm all about taking a person's word for it, when they know more about a topic than I do, but come on.

LOL e47 Owens comes with universal title e46 Sheamus comes with WWE titles e45 Rollins and Reigns both come with WWE titles Lost Legends HBK came with European title and Warrior with winged eagle e43 Hart Foundation comes with tag titles, Del Rio comes with US title, Kevin Owens comes with NXT title e41 123Kid comes with tag title, Terry funk ECW title e40 Sami Zayn comes with NXT title, Cena comes with US e39 Ziggler comes with IC title And thats just in the last year. We see that were getting Smackdown Tag Titles so theres that too. Edit: I didnt even include exclusives. RSE Nash, NS Ringmaster, Reigns, TNF Rusev, Natural disasters, Target Dusty Rhodes, DM Austin with THREE!

People keep coming up with this idea no matter how much Bill says it's not going to happen. Like others have said, belts help sell figures. Plus belt packs cater to an even more niche demo. Remember how people here claim that bringing back the ASR would sell big numbers among the diehards? Didn't happen. Part of me wants it to be done just so when it still in large volumes on RSC a year later, how does it get spinned.

No no no no, no more ringside exclusives until international delivery falls inline with EVERY other international shipper.

Just trying to figure out how me having to go back and pay secondary prices for Blue & Red tag belts, Hsrdcore, Spinner, etc is making Mattel any money They aren't releasing them anymore, so why not try belt packs?
And $50 for a five pack is laughable I don't care where or from whom that number originally came from
Belts shouldn't need to sell figures. If they aren't good enough to sell without belts, improve them

LOL from RSC the shipping would be more expensive than the belts themselves.

If a belt would cost $10, then why do elites only $20 and can have a belt or even 2?

Well, I got all the Mattel belts so far except for the RAW and SD tag belts included with E10 Big Show. I'd buy a pack of belts if those were included, and the non-vac belts (Hardcore, Million Dollar) got the vac treatment.

Luckily the only belts I'm missing are the women's, Internet, and hardcore. I think it's a good idea, but like others of said I don't think Mattel would go for it.
