Differences between WWE Shop Big Gold replicas and Fandu Big Golds

[@fightingwarrior5893]

Awesome review I got the new All Gold Fandu Luxe Big gold. Recently got the Andre The Giant one as well!

[@petoriaprime8534]

When the official belts look like bootleg belts 😂😂😂😂 #FanduFFFFFFFFForLife

[@1misso]

I'm trying to get in the belt game & I just recently found out about the Fandu belts. Thank u guys for this review. It helped out alot

[@Balorfan85]

Anything we can do to help! We love doing these videos, just wish there was more time in the day to do them more frequently.

[@carcriticexplained172]

Not sure why ppl bash wwe belts. They come with great carrying cases and have great detail. They also come directly from wwe itself so to me that counts for something.

[@mycreationz1652]

yes a cheaply made belt is fine as logo as it’s got a wwe case bru you some restarted as hell i bet you worship wwe like God

[@americanpatriot646]

I'm a huge fan of WCW and Sting so to me I think of flair vs. Sting when I see the big gold belt.

[@Michael_Chandler_Keaton]

You know, I started to make some sarcastic comment about grown men and wrestling belts, but after watching the vid I feel like a real jerk for even the thought. It's refreshing to see people so passionate about a collecting hobby. Good for you guys, very nice belts.

[@Balorfan85]

Thanks man! Wait...that comment wasn't sarcasm was it? Lol Anybody that loves something as they are growing up still keeps a special place in their heart for it. Now that we are grown and have some extra spending money, why not? Glad you enjoyed it!

[@bluestripetiger]

The WWE logo on top of the Big Gold automatically ruins the belt for me. I really disliked how WWE had to "stamp" a classic belt as its own. For me the true Big Gold is the Crumrine version.

[@existxtrace19]

The size difference of the fandu is an illusion. The WWE and WCW replicas have almost no curve whereas the fandu is curved as it should be so when you place the fandu on top of a WWE/WCW replica it appears slightly smaller because of the curve

[@chriswhittaker5075]

Yeah they are pretty much the same height. WWE one looks stretched as well as flat.

[@MaxKirgan]

I'm glad you guys made this comparison with the different versions. I've been thinking about getting a Fandu, the biggest complaint I've heard about them, is the size of the plates. Next to the WWE WHC, they look to be the same size. I think the WCW Version 1 only looks bigger because the plate is flat. I think if you were able to curve the plate, the sizes would be similar. I'm hoping Fandu starts making other belts as well. I'd love for them to do the Big Eagle.

[@Balorfan85]

In fairness, the fandu is about 15% smaller in size, but they make up for it in quality and weight.

[@TheNickysiete]

I can't stand to see a title without curved plates. They simple suck. Fandu belts are amazing!

[@MrNWA4Life]

Belt not title

[@Shaunny.Longlegs]

That wasn't the exact belt edge had though lol...

[@Thelastemeperor]

This belt put Booker t in the Hall of Fame. I grew up watching this belt. I use this belt on my 2k20 and I'm sorry about the long comments. This belt was on all my favorite dirt to be superstars as a kid but not all. I'm buying this belt.

[@WWEFanTalkshow]

How many belts do each of you guys have now?

[@Balorfan85]

I am up to 28 now nd Kevin is around 25 or 26

[@Balorfan85]

Hey thanks man! We literally drove 9hrs to NOLA, attended Wrestlecon to meet Stone Cold, Goldberg and Bret Hart and drove 9hrs back. I forgot my wife's shop big gold to get signed and we had been eyeing a Fandu, so I got ours as a make up gift to her. Lol

[@masonmorales1350]

Balorfan85 that’s kickass man. Yeah I love this hobby lol we drove from Texas to NO to do the wrestlecon booth and to go to mania. I got my wcw deluxe signed by hbk lol

[@Balorfan85]

Nice! We weren't able to go this year, but went to Wrestlecon last year and Wrestlecon and Mania the year before. We spent a lot last year, but Orlando bout broke us. Lol This hobby really is amazing! Glad to have several belt buddies around here, and Kevin and I should be making some more videos within the next two or.three days

Balorfan85 heck yeah man it’s a great hobby man I’m in the process of trying to sell my deluxe ecw 08 championship. But god this hobby is amazing lol

[@Balorfan85]

I'm sure somebody will bite on that belt. It's popularity has steadily grown over the years

[@brentamania89]

Fandu they can't be the exact specifications or they'll get sued that's what I was told by them so they have to scale them down just a bit but still they're good belts and one day I want to get one

[@mikewitoZero]

Do you know if the strap on your Fandu belt is standard or real faux leather?

[@Balorfan85]

Standard

[@foxhound9781]

Have you looked at the belts from Classic Shields?

[@Balorfan85]

No. I normally just get belts from wwe shop, and loved the fandu too much not to get one(now we have the Backlund as well.) Not saying one day I won't check them out, but right now I've been happy getting our belts from where we've been getting them.

[@Michael_Chandler_Keaton]

Classic shields made the greatest big gold ever. The NWA 15 pounds of gold with the actual diamond cut NWA logo on it. Most beautiful belt ever.

[@antidiz]

I have your "edge belt as well as the LUXE edition. The main plate is a little smaller than the Luxe edition. It is also not curved it's domed. The Luxe edition is curved. You can see the difference.. You guys should get the Fandu Luxe, they call it the holy grail..lol. It comes either in two tone or all gold with a real leather strap. It's the most impressive replica you'll ever see.

[@chwenhoou]

The WWE Shop version looks like a thin pizza crust compared to Fandu's thick crust version of the Big Gold Belt.

[@TheSteve475]

I was just wondering what kind of leather is the black strap... real leather or faux leather?

[@Balorfan85]

Its simulated. We didnt opt for the upgraded straps. If you want to see what that's about, Stephen Hammer recently did a video on the upgraded strap

[@l.arandom1631]

From your experience, do Fandu ever have any deals around Black Friday? I wanna get a big gold but idk if I should wait till then.

[@Balorfan85]

They have sales all the time! If you're not in their Facebook group, you'll find they post their sales there, or go to fandubelts.com

[@l.arandom1631]

Balorfan85 Awesome, I’ll check their fb page, thanks.

[@mr.oldschool22]

The WWE version is just way too flat and no detail. Looks like junk compared to a Fandu Big Gold. Fandu all the way.

[@Balorfan85]

Agree completely that Fandu os definitely far superior. The wwe shop isnt bad though just for the novice collector who just wants to get one.

[@shaunwilliams4231]

I have my big gold belt on order from fandu its the limited edition copper belt and it says its 8mm plates

[@markoutwithmark]

So if I was between a WCW Big Gold from ShopWWE or a Fandu what would you recommend? My only gripe is the size difference on Fandu.
