Replica Title Belts

[Tradewynd]

I was thinking about picking up the NWA World Title Replica that Figures Inc. made. Does anyone have this belt or know if it was well made? I know the leather is simulated, but the playes don't look bad at a first glance. Was there a limited edition of the NWA Title with real leather? I was also thinking about getting their WWF European Title(the limited one with real leather) since it looks to be a really nice belt. Anyone own any of these?

my friend had the replica Hardcore Title its pretty nice, it has the simulated leather, also Ive been thinking about getting one of the new WWF Undisputed Titles

From what I've been told so far the best belts the Figures Inc. has made were the NWA, Euro and the original US Title(not the "Alliance Edition"), as the belts have much more detail than the others. Also, if anyone knows if there is a place to get a decent replica of the IWGP, GHC or TC let me know. I'd love to buy a real belt from someone like Reggie Parks, but I really don't have $1100+ for a belt.

I got the NWA title for a wedding gift. The belt is great and is the best belt they made. I have friends that have many of the other belts and they even agree the NWA belt is the best.

It will be a little hard to find since it's not made anymore and the prices people ask for it on e-bay are kinda high.

The plates are shiney (unlike some of the WCW and WWF plates I have seen). The flags are all really nice and the globe dome is very nice. The belt itself is also great as it is not just one sold piece of "leather". It has folds built into it so that you may wear it without cracking the leather. I know I didn't describe that the best way but it's the best I can do.

I don't know anything about Japaness belts but I would love to hear something.

I would love to find an IWGP title, that is a great looking belt. And it'd be new to most of my friends cause they hardly know anything about puroresu

Where would be the best place to get big goldie?

I saw on Highspots that they had the title belt for 165 (Alliance Edition and a pack of name plates)

Is this a goo deal or is there a better version of the belt out there?

Well, the BEST place to get Big Goldie is Reggie Parks, for what he calls the "Ric Flair Belt", but at 2500 bucks I'll have to stick with a replica. I picked up one of the first batch of Big Goldie's on eBay for a hundred and change with shipping so I'll let everyone know the quality of the belt once I get it. I'm not sure if there's a difference between the "Alliaiance Edition" other than the plates are supposed to be thicker. If you're going to get one of the Alliance belts I would strongly recommend getting the limited edition belt. Buying the leather by itself costs more than the difference between the 2 versions of the belts. Does anyone know if those limited edition belts have better plates on them too? Or is the real leather and limited run the only difference?

one of my friends paid $200 for a replica WCW Heavyweight title a few years ago(still made by and for WCW merch) and the quality is terrible, one of the sides of the plate broke, one of the side plates fell off and the main part of the title is peeling from the leather

www.wrestlingsuperstore.com shells alot of titles, includint deluxe edition belts for $350 or so with real leather

A friend of mine has the WCW big gold belt. He got the original version and it is a nice belt. My only complaints with the belts were:

1-The plates are very dull. This compared to my NWA title which has nice hsiney plates.

2-The "leather" belt is stiff as hell and he wears the belt. It was a kick to wear the belt since it is so big.

I hear the alliance version of the belt has the shiney plates on it but I haven't seen it in person.

Go to Ebay. They have WCW, WWF and NWA titles up for auction.
