WWE/WWF Replica Belts Discussion

[tbay]

I picked up the undisputed micro replica and it fits well scale wise with the 12" WWF ringside rebels figures if you display it on the figure's shoulder, unfortunately it doesn't fit around any of my figure's waists.

I'll post pics of Hogan with the belt soon.

Nice belt!! It is ashamed that they can't use the scratched WWF logo anymore. Everybody can thank the World Wildlife Foundation for that. Apparently, the WWE and World Wildlife Foundation went to court over the trademark. WWE was allowed to use the block letter that you used to see. Once they changed their logo to the scratched symbol, World Wildlife Foundation took them to court for violating a court mandate. The rest is history.

Just know that your Smoking Skull Belt is worth a little bit more since that WWF scratched logo ceases to exist and can longer be used (and why you see a WWE scratched logo on replica of the Smoking Skull, Big Eagle, Attitude Tag Team, and European Championship replicas).

I wonder if all the people that donate money to the World Wildlife Fund know that they've wasted millions of those dollars suing a wrestling company? As if anyone has ever bought tickets to a wrestling show thinking it was a animal event.

On a side note about the smoking skull belt, I was always bothered that it doesn't have the last two smaller badge plates and I'm surprised the ones they offer today still don't come with them.

I have de-railed the Mattel WWE figures thread for a while and figured it was time that these awesome collectibles were given their own thread. If you collect these guys, let us know and maybe even post some pics!

WWE shop.com is having a great promo on title belts (15% off) and they also have an additional promo code discount as well. Use the code "TOASTY" for an additional 25% off. So 40% off total, plus you get a free wall hanger to display your belt. The Winged Eagle would be dirt cheap. Around $190 shipped I think.

The belt hanger allows you to hang your belt like this:

^^^^ To "Balsquat": I'm kinda flattered that you used my photos for your posts, but I would appreciate if you could next time credit where you got the photos from before you post them and make others think its yours. No offense, but the belts in the photos there are mine, and I took the photos myself. If you couldn't give credit, the least you could have said in your posts was to say that the photos don't belong to you, that would have been good enough.

On a side note, the full album of all my WWE Replica Belts can be found here >>> https://www.flickr.com/photos/imranbecks/sets/72157600363832545/

I bought all the belts back in 2007 and 2008, all of them from ebay as the international shipping is cheaper than from WrestlingSuperstore. Its been a while since I last bought a replica belt as there are no interesting release for quite some time now.. The only new belts recently being the new WWE Tag championship which is really not to my liking..haha.. It looks really funny.. I think I'll just get the Mattel Tag Championship toy belt instead of the replica

These photos were not used for any sort of profit and regardless, I never claimed them to be mine. I just liked the way they were all laid out. Also, if you check post 65 of this thread which I have attached below, you will see that I even state to another member where the pictures came from and that the belts on on the first post are not my own. Anyways, they have been removed.

This is a just a random google image when I searched for "replica belts".
The small belts look to be the "mini"versions that they sell. Sorry, I don't know too much about them

I've recently just received the non-spinning replacement screw for the WWE Championship Spinner belt replica. Purchased it from Wrestling Superstore >>> https://wrestlingsuperstore.com/wweuswordlifelargescrewforbackofbelt-1.aspx

The screw replaces the current spinning screw at the back of the belt and it will stop the free motion spin of the WWE logo on the metal replica belt so it will look like the one on tv. I don't think the commemorative belt needs this screw as that one already has a magnet that keeps the spinner locked in place.

The screw is larger than the older one, so it does the job really well. Once screwed in, you can adjust the WWE logo to any way you like, of coz, I adjusted it straight and upright as it should be. Won't spin anymore unless you remove the screw and replace it with the old one of coz.

The photo below shows the spinning screw on the left, and the non-spinning replacement screw on the right.

So do you think they will ever release the Intercontinental belt that Goldust used to wear? It was a classic Intercontinental belt but the leather was gold. I really liked the way it looked. I would definitely purchase that!

Not been on here for a while, i was having my Intercontinental belt releathered. I got it done my Mike Nicolau he did a great job and hes put the photos of my belt on his website if anyone wants to view them at https://www.nickelographics.com/belts/classicicreleather.htm

As a replica, very doubtful that strap would ever be made at this point. Don't know if a belt maker can replicate that strap. I'm kinda weary with dye colored leather straps though. They tend to crack over a long term.

 

[BatistaGT]

I never thought about the cracking. Are the white straps known to crack? I just think the belt looked great with the gold colored strap, I am still on the fence about buying the IC belt.

On real leather straps, they do tend to crack. It has to do with the dye beltmakers use.

As far as the replica straps, they aren't dyed and you should have any problems with cracking with the different color belts. If you were looking at the white strap IC replica from Figs Inc, cracking isn't something I'd worry about.

Sounds like a good idea miltchkau. Can't wait to see what your display will look like!

Is it me or is the "new" wwe championship belt currently held by John Cena have skinnier plates than the one held by CM Punk?

It does, it's a new version of the spinner that is made with the central "W" moulded as part of the main plate and it was designed to be less bulky and to be less weight.

It's not a replica, it's a J-Mar belt ordered a fiew months ago by the WWE. They ordered that belt and at the same time, a new 3d Big Gold that Christian is currently using with the red backing.

 

[BatistaGT]

I was looking on wweshop.com, what is the difference between the WWE World Heavyweight Championship #1 and the #2 verison besides the price?

 

[COSMOSTARX]

The good and bad wrestlers associated with it.


That OG IC belt is quite the memorabilia. A time where the IC title mattered and meant just as much as the top belt.

 

[BatistaGT]

I can not believe that they brought back the old school IC title! While it is not exactly like the original it is definitely the best current title belt.

wait what?

Nevermind, just saw it.

Crazy that they brought that back. Love that they went with the white color. Shawn Michaels baby.
