I love this belt and could definitely use a second one in my collection.
I'd love a Jeff Hardy figure from when he won the title against Triple H on Smackdown in 2001.

It also came w/the Farooq & Rock 2 Pack.
I have 2, one on my Shamrock & one on Attitude Era Jericho (Don't recall if that's accurate time period, but it works for me).

What about them only releasing the ruthless aggression tag titles were released once not counting the rsc belt pack Probably because that is the era most neglected by mattel

Besides the Nation 2 pack which Rock came with it? The Legends figure? Personally I only remember the McIntyre coming with it. I bought two of him because of that title. I would have liked to have seen a Jericho come with it while he was still with the WWE or now with a Flashback Orton.

2-Man Power trip 2-pack with the WWF, IC & Tag titles would be awesome. And that would give us a chance at Triple H in his “tHe game H H” trunks

I have 2 of these. One is McIntyre's and one is I don't know who's. One is more gold than the other, the other being almost a silvery white. This is one of my least favorite belt designs in the history of wrestling. I believe the McIntyre one is the silvery looking one. It was gold but eventually turned silver. Not sure what was the cause of that.

I completely forgot about that Nation 2 pack. Here I am wondering why I had an extra belt.

My favorite version of the Intercontinental Championship Title Belt is the oval version with the nameplate. I agree that this should have been released a few more times, but only Drew McIntyre came with a good version. The ones that came with the Rock and Rikishi didn't have the words "World Wrestling Entertainment" at the top. As already mentioned, the one with Ezekiel Jackson was dull, in every sense of the term. Yeah they took the cheap route on the one that came w/Zeke.

It was due to light exposure (like sunlight) the VAC couldn't handle it and turned silver due to it for whatever reason. Not sure if they produce them differently now that eliminates that problem.

Shamrock was the perfect shout for this belt. I actually like the design. Sadly a lot of guys it could come with aren’t getting figures right now. Goldust, Billy Gunn amongst others. Could get one with a few guys though like hardy, Edge, Christian, Road Dogg etc. Man, I saw you mention Billy Gunn, and it just reminded me how much I’d love to have an Elite of “The One” Billy Gunn with the gold tights and IC Title. Unfortunately, that won’t be officially made anytime soon...

It’s been kinda fixed, they use a ton more VAC per belt, but I still wouldn’t keep them in direct sunlight. Look at test shot photos of the E8 Sheamus spinner belt compared to the one with the new RR13 Rock; the Sheamus belt looks like white chocolate gold and the one with Rock looks like a solid gold nugget

Looking at the gallery of champions on WWE.com, Mattel had plenty of chances to release it. I'm really surprised Umaga didn't come with it. I don't remember him as a wrestler (past my time) but I remember he warmed in the area that I lived in at the time.

Why did they omit the "World Wrestling Entertainment" on the later versions?

Why did they omit the "World Wrestling Entertainment" on the later versions? It’s probably one of those weird ticks they get on. They removed the scratch logo from the European title belt and stopped using it on packaging (E39 Godfather originally had it on the packaging but it was replaced in later production runs by the network logo, which was then used on every Attitude Era/Ruthless Aggression flashback in the 2015-2016 packaging) They changed their name from World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. to just WWE Inc. in 2011, might have something to do with that

There's film you can buy to lay over your windows, kinda like tint, that will keep your stuff, be it figures, cd/dvd spines, etc from fading.
Back on topic, who came with the purple strap oval IC belt???
