It Could Have Been Much Worse

Here's our first look at Phanatic 2.0. He's got new blue socks, new shoes, a bright blue tail, and the clamshells behind his eyes have been replaced with stars. And it looks like his eyebrows are a little lighter. The snout is also shorter and there are scales on his arms.

Hard to tell if he's been slimmed down, but his hips are wider and he's definitely recognizable. Crisis averted. Here's a side view, with photos from NBCSports Philadelphia.
