Honestly, other than chroming his head, what else could have they done for Destro? Even if they made a completely new sculpt, it wouldn't have been as good as the 50th.

Got my Destro and Scarlett figures today. Here's a comparison of the (left) new Destro with the (right) 50th version (Note: I swapped the stands):
And here's the new Scarlett. In-hand, it's a very nice (and sorely-needed) update given the fact that there's zero new tooling (except the head, I think?). Scarlett's one of the few remaining v1 ARAH figures that I really, REALLY needed an update for. Oh, and the head sculpt and digital printing on the face look absolutely great. Oh, and she also comes with a harness, but it's completely worthless. It doesn't fit correctly at all (the shoulder straps ride way too high). That Scarlett looks really good man. There's been a lot of complaining about her but she's a great figure, no doubt about it.

Hey! I just checked Walmart's site and my HISS Tank finally shipped! Hoo-fucking-ray!
EDIT: Shipping from nearby, too, so hopefully it should get here either tomorrow or Monday.

The Scarlett head looks better and better in every pic I see.
I will keep my thoughts on the torso to myself. Assuming my preorders ever ship (and I learn to use my drill better), my Resolute bodies have a chance to actually look a lot better.

They did.
It is. Here's a few more comparison pics (Walmart top, 50th bottom). FYI- the legs are much less rubbery on the new figure than the original. Wrist rockets and hand grenades are painted much better as well. However, Walmart Destro no longer has eyeballs...they're just empty black slits now. I like it (looks less cartoonish, IMO), but your mileage may vary.
