Nice to see that Scarlett's hair and head are now color cast correctly. The eyebrow...
Your eyebrow statement got me to thinking about this post in a different thread:

Retro Scarlett is clearly NOT from a shrunken Classified sculpt. Different hair, thicker lips, thicker eyebrows. But then there's the nose, the slant of the eyes...
Perhaps Retro Scarlett IS based on the Classified 3D rendering after all.
Perhaps there won't be much new sculpting in the Retro line that won't be based on the Classified line.
Ok guys. Go ahead and argue with me...
{EDIT: Thanks to truejoefan for the lowest left Retro Scarlett image. Thanks to Walmart.com, Tony Bacala, and GeneralsJoes for the other pictures}
I think the issue is that the new screen-paint app makes the eyebrows too long toward the center of the nose. Look at Roadblock. Why are they painting the eyebrows into the area above the nose? Even the Classified figures' eyebrows look a little too long. Hopefully, it's not to hard to shape those inside tips of the eyebrows and give Scarlett a trim. LOL! I am glad that "retro" Scarlett does not have the Alfalfa freckles though.
Oh, and I've already purchased one of those resin-cast TF Roadblock heads, but the "Retroblock" (YES! I just coined that term, you may use at will) head sculpt is starting to grow on me. I'll have to see it in person compared to the TF head sculpt to be sure.
