I just picked up the Genius Leaping Lanny Poffo and much to my surprise he came with an interconinental Title Belt. I checked the IC Title History and sure enough his name is not there under any name that i recognize Leaping, The Poet, The Genius. now I know Jakks isn't immune to mistakes from time to time (giving KOTR Jake the Snake a buff bod?) but actually attributing a title? where's the research here? (course with me it's not a huge issue anyway I'll just put the strap on Bret or Hunter or Goldust)

The Genius = Macho Man (Brother)
Macho Man = Former Intercontinental Champion
therefore...
The Genius = Former Intercontinental Champion
In all seriousness, they just threw it in with the figure. Never was champ.

Didn't he manage Mr. Perfect during an IC run ? No never did. Perfect won the belt in tourny & that same night Heenan debuted as his manager. In terms of figures, doesn't Jakks pack a ton of guys with belts they never? I know Test & Regal were never World Champs, but still come with the belts. |

Regal will always be a champ in my books! but test is meh. lol. |

Every fig in cs1 had a version of the belt they never had, but they did have the title. Understand? Like HHH had the modern IC title but with that gimmick he had a white classic one. HBK, Hart, UT, Andre and Warrior all won the WWE title but not that version. I realize the new molds werent made yet, but at least give them a chair or something else as a weapon. CS9 Flair came with the Undisputed title even though with that gimmick he should have came with the rectagular NWA title.
