Hey guys,
New to the forum. I'm a figure customizer working mainly in classic 5.5/he man and associated knockoffs.
I've been looking out for a figure with a classic IC strap and I see Mattel has the HBK coming that has a pretty good looking belt. I got the Hollywood Hogan that has the big gold belt(of course with nWo spray paint) and it's a pretty awesome representation of the belt.
I was curious if these belts use the same molds as the elite belts?
Anyone own both versions of the belts for comparison? I realize finding that HBK right now is like finding hen's teeth so the big gold belt might be only thing able to compare right now

It's the same sized strap. The plates aren't vac (not shiny), but can pretty easily be swapped with any other IC title. |
