WWE Mattel Kid size Toy championship Belt

Worthless to one may be priceless to another.

It started out with just the Jakks version of the Undisputed WWE Championship Title Belt. The greatest design of all of time, and it could be mine for just $10.

Then I decided to add just one more, the Big Gold Belt. It was like getting another tattoo and jewelry, but for your waist and shoulders, that you wear outside your clothes.

Then the Cruiserweight Championship Title Belt, since it just matched the top 2 prizes in this industry.

Then I told myself, only the ones with nameplates, including the Spinner.

Then the first exception. The Intercontinental Championship Title Belt wasn't the version with a nameplate, but I'll just grab that anyway, to complete the Ruthless Agression set.

Then the classics showed up. Reggie Parks' set of the Winged Eagle, classic IC and Tags. The Million Dollar Belt. The Attitude Era set of the Big Eagle, the Oval IC (which I already had), the European, the Hardcore, the Light Heavyweight. The nWo. The ECW. The US Spinner.

My very last ex-girlfriend suggested I get the rest, and the rest is history. As soon as she gave me the green light, I bought 8 at once. Just imagine what a 27 year looked like in line at Toys R Us with 8 kid sized toy Championship Title Belt made of plastic and foam. Opening them and smelling the "freshness" was magical. Really felt like I "won" every single time.

By the time Mattel took over for WWE, around the same time that Jakks made MMA and TNA Championship Title Belts, I'd already made the decision to collect them all. It gives me the sense of completion, everytime I buy a new piece.

Retail value, I'd guess my collection of kids sized toy straps would be about $1,000 to $2,000. I wouldn't sell it for a $1,000,000.
