It could just be the lighting, but I guess I'm gonna have to grab another Razor if there's a darker purple version out there. (pics from evilbay)

Ooh man I got the pinkish one....
I hate it when this happens like the Sin Cara Gold/Green all over again.

Interesting, doesn't bother me much. Honestly when attired are made that aren't Bassein solid black blue or red, USUALLY the shade is always off at least a bit. Not w knock but an observation. Such a great fig overall tho

I have the pinkish one too. So essentially we got an inaccurate figure since we pre-ordered. SO that's great. Guess I'll pick up another and just sell my first version. But what a pain in the ass...

Could always return it too. Yeah, I opened it. I don't have much of an option other than to just buy it over again.

it's definitely "light" purple. my biggest issue is that there is nothing "defining" about it besides it's price.

As an update, I forget the episode of Raw but I watched it last night and he did wear a purple attire at one point that WAS different than the darker purple and way more closely resembles the hue of the dM razor and the original Jakks Razor, so the color isn't a screw up as much as an offbeat, obscure attire

Why does accuracy matter if you have to Google it??

I'm SHOCKED more people don't care that we're not getting the definitive Razor attire of deep purple. I think people were just so happy to be getting him they refused to complain/notice - 1. The wrong colour! 2. The wrong parts! 3. The fact that it could have just been an ELITE series figure!! Anyyyyyway I think I found what colour Mattel did. Razor had these 3 similar attires - 1. Metallic Purple 2. Deep Purple - i.e Definitive look 3. Pink 1. Metallic Purple - This lighter colour is like the Mattel Figure 2. Deep Purple - The Definitive attire he wore, that we didn't get 3. Pink. The Mattel Fig is more like a hybrid of Pink and Pic 1 Metallic purple Anyway here's to yellow or green next time...surely can't balls those colours up ha!

Guarantee if Mattel did Razor in black instead of purple, someone will show pics of Razor's outfit not being black enough. I do agree that Razor's arms are small though it is probably because they based the figure on the post Hogan, steroid free New Generation era. Razor shrunk during that time frame.

Those of us who don't like settling for inaccurate attires shouldn't be chastised, these figures are 26 bucks, mattel needs to step it up at that price point, overall this Razor was a misstep.

I'd be happy if the knee and elbow pads matched the trunks, regardless of whether the shade of purple. I'm most disapointed with the boots and pads, mine has trunks that are a nice purple color but an odd color every thing else.

I've had mine for a couple weeks now and haven't opened it yet because of the terrible face. That sticks out to me more than the color issue. Thinking of returning it, but will there ever be another Razor?
