Released in April 2020 as part of Wave 1, Scarlett was met with lukewarm reception by a lot of Classified fans and is not as popular as some of the other earlier Classified figures were. Some fans have complained that her face sculpt is a little too young looking and resembles a teenager more than it does a veteran soldier.
Scarlett comes with the following gear and accessories: a crossbow rifle, (3) knives and a removable backpack (which can also store all three knives). Scarlett's field variant differences were as follows: the gold armor on her boots, knee pads, forearm armor and chest armor was switched to dark brown; the bright sky blue paint trim on her boots and knees was removed; the color of her pants was changed from dark gray to light brown; her shirt was changed from purple to dark gray; and her hair color went from orange with highlights to a deeper shade of red with less highlights. **NOTE**For the first wave of Classified, Hasbro ended up re-releasing 4 of the first 5 figures (minus Destro) in February 2021 with all-new and improved paint decos. I am including both the original and field variants on these polls. Using the poll options, rate the figure on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a total miss and a 10 being plastic perfection, based on what you feel the figure deserves. Ratings should take overall design, sculpt, paint apps and paint deco, accessories and articulation into consideration. Thanks for voting and Yooo Joe!!!

Scarlett and Duke are two figures that I think really missed the bullseyes. Both should be redone.

Scarlett definitely deserves an all-new update!

I gave Scarlett a 5, once again because there isn't a separate poll for the two versions. I bought the field variant version, which I give a 6, and I do like it. It has a nice sculpt, but the articulation is limited and would benefit from an update. The gear she comes with is good, but I didn't like the knife blades being unpainted, so I painted them, myself.
The original versions colours are worse, in my opinion, and the face sculpt is horrible... she looks 12. I give this version a 4, so that averages to 5 for the two.

The re-release was way better color wise, and especially in the head. I like the gear OK, but its not as good as Id hope. What's interesting is my complaints are different to what most people are; I think this skews too close to the original. Give her a decent gun, double elbows and maybe some combat pants and we would have more of a winner here. She's still decent, I just think she could be better. And by better I don't mean "Classic"

2. Terrible paint deco on both releases. Cause of this she needs a new release in her ARAH 80s paint deco, which i was hoping for on a retro card.

Poor Scarlett. When they had a chance to make sense of her uniform, they made it even more chaotic. Even the movie version has such a mess from the neck down.

Gave her a 7. I like the update and am not a huge fan of the leotard look on any level. The field variant is better. Single jointed elbows as an issue.
