I like the brighter red on Destro, also the boots having a separate color from the black, also looks like they got rid of that cobra symbol on the left shoulder. New one looks like a upgrade to me.

BTW, the new paintjob is 10,000x better than the original 50th release. I'm 100% happy with this new figure. Quote:
And here's someone else with some common sense.

I just hope someone in Hasbro fixes the filecards in future waves. That stuff looks like a knockoff version.

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.

Hasbro's one-size-fits-all packaging for global markets is an eyesore. It has eaten up the back of TVC version 2 packaging, and is doing the same to Joes.
Like anything it's motivated by money. |

Yeah, the cobra symbol on the old one always bugged me big time.

Never touched Classified. 6" scale just isn't for me.
The HISS at $24.99 hits the spot for nostalgia. That said, I'd pay double or even more for a definitive HISS new tool at a slightly larger size with premium deco and working treads. In a retro box, of course. |

Scarlett and Snake Eyes: the old (back) and the new (front). Yes, I need to dust.
