I somewhat wish I had ordered Del Rio, but I kept putting it off because of the price until it was on back order. So I decided I wanted something from this series showing up at my place as a pre order. So, I did something I've never done before (and will never do again) and ordered something without any idea of what it looked like. And I ordered Wade Barrett. My fingers and toes were crossed that this wasn't just a repaint. So... it's a damn repaint.  Whatever. Win some. Lose some. And lesson learned.  I'll post some loose pics tomorrow. |

Perhaps it's just the lighting and angle of the picture, but that scan looks angrier than the Basic 10 Barrett scan.

Nah, it's just the way they painted his eye brows. It spices up the more life less look on his face with the last two figures.

Well I'd say better tight designs and no armband is an upgrade.

It is. But it wasn't worth $20.

That sucks. LoL. Don't ever order something before you see it. Especially a basic that you prob knew was a repaint. If you already have a basic Barret, trade or sell this one

...what were you expecting? A new scan. Mattel doesn't offer enough scans. I doubt we'll see a different basic scan of Wade until next year. |

Well, it's not just a total repaint. He doesn't have the Nexs armband. Therfore, making it the first Corre era Barrett. All the other Barretts were Nexus era. So, it's a different figure IMO, not just a repaint.

I had my fingers crossed for a Barrett without Nexus armband but without the Orton attire he wears now. This figure nails it. Sorry you aren't aren't as happy about it as I am. |

So, it's a different figure IMO, not just a repaint. A repaint is a figure that is exactly the same as a previous figure, just painted differently. That's what this is. The trunks design is different and there's no Nexus armband painted on. What did you think a repaint was? |
