I'll be the first one to commend Mattel when they make a great figure. Just yesterday I posted how Warlord looked so good I pre-ordered when previously I thought I'd wait. With that said, I find myself quite disappointed in the Brutus Beefcake attire seen at Toy Fair. While I was hoping for a WrestleMania VI attire or even WrestleMania IV, the attire chosen is a big let down. All white and zebra striped? When fans think of Beefcake, they think of pink more than any other color. If this was Dream Team Brutus Beefcake, it'd be one thing, but for "The Barber"? Thumbs down. Couldn't they have at least done a pair of tights that featured two different colors/patterns or cut-out holes like he typically wore once he firmly cemented "The Barber" character? I know Mattel isn't going away anytime soon but now fans that have already waited years for a Beefcake figure will now have to wait another year or so for an iconic Barber look or before there's even a chance at another Beefcake figure. Even then, I'll bet we get a basic next. Color me disappointed MattelDesignTeam.

Personally...I love it. If they just re-did the Jakks CS 5 attire people would complain that it's not different enough.

I think his attire is great!
It can either be used for babyface Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, or you can use it for heel Brutus Beefcake with The Dream Team.

When I think of The Barber I think of Zebra stripes. Figure looks great, instant buy for me.

Still going to be an instant buy for me, hoping it looks better in hand.

Well, at least the tights are white so you can dye 'em teal or yellow.

Not me, I'm very happy with the tiger striped attire. Would have been disappointed if they went with the purple hasbro route.
I'd be shocked if we didn't get a few versions of he barber because he had so many different attires.

I wonder if Bill based this off of that
