This came packaged as shown.  It is made of a semi flexible plastic and each section is jointed.  The accessories do not come off but didn't get hung up on anything.  The back is 2 velcro sections for size adjustment which works well, just realize if you aren't wearing a cape the plastic does not go all the way around the back.  Obviously this is just for show and doesn't hold anything.  This fit well over my real belt concealing it completely.
I am happy with the purchase.
