James W. [insert flavor of the day] bought a new toy, and he's ready to crack some lame jokes.
I strolled into Kmart a few days ago and found the new Wade Barrett figure among the millions and the millions of John Cena and Rey Mysterios. Damn straight. I almost never find anything at retail.
I LOVE this figure! They did a really good job with the attire, tattoos (as usual), and head scan. While the eyebrows and black hair do contrast a bit, it is somewhat realistic since it seems Way Barruh naturally has light brown hair (and dyes his head black like he's Kevin Nash or something.)
This figure is probably going to be the last Barrett I get unless they do one of his blue attires as a basic repaint. I'm going to skip the elite because
1. ~$20 lol
2. I have an elite barrett from my favorite barret era
3. Rubber shirt is yucky
4. red attire again?
5. nice belt but I've already missed out on like, all the belts so Im not bothering with collecting them
Way Barruh was never one of my favorites, so to speak. I didn't really like him in the Nexus that much (though I liked the group as a whole), and I especially didn't care about him when he was banished to the Smackdown midcard in the Corre. It wasn't until he started the Barrett Barrage stuff in late 2011 and early 2012 that I started to buy into how badass and legit he was. His feud with Randy Orton gave me a reason to care about Smackdown and Randy Orton. So he became one of my top favorite "current" guys, even with his directionless pseudo-Fight Club gimmick and 8 million themes (I still say "I Don't Care" V2/V3 was his best). Maybe someday he'll end up in the hunt for the WHC. Till then, he can go 16-3 and win occasional Superstars matches against jobbers while I silently weep.
Tl;Dr version: Wade Barrett is pretty cool IMO, and I have a couple figures of him:
And, the moment none of you have been waiting for... THE WADE BARRETT GARAGE.
"I'm Wade Barrett... and my Garage.. cannot be stopped."
That's all the rambling and terrible jokes that I've got. Thanks for looking.
