Strangely enough, I don't think Mr T has a machine gun built into his right arm... Nor do I think he'll ever want one put in there...

Plus Barret was never part of the A-Team. In fact, you can hardly even compare AVALANCHE to the A-Team. I pity the fool who compare AVALANCHE to the A-Team.

Ahem, sorry.

Yeah, there may be a similiarity because one of the designers thought BA Barracus was cool, but I think that's where it ends.

Yea, I agree with Adam. But we all know that Mr. T could kick Barrett's ass hands down. Barrett doesn't have a cartoon. Barrett didn't beat up Rocky. I pity the fool who picks a fight with Mr. T. He's tough enough to beat cancer!

Simple. The connection is that Barret is Mr. T's love child.

I dunno, but I always pictured Mr.T voicing Barret in Advent Children.

Dunno,but i have seen an early clip of ff7 ac of barret.


Cloud "wow,i cant believe tifa was just sliced in half by sephiroth"

Barret"i pity the fool"

Cloud"the world is in pain"

Barret"i pity the fool"

Cloud"barret?..........im dying......"

Barret"i pity the fool" (changes arms and blows cloud away)

well I can agree that Barret looks exactly like Mr.T, but the name Barret Wallace has to do with a guy named something Wallace in real life who was a leader of some activist group.

I hope this isn't off....

But wasn't "Wallace" the name of a racist group??? I could've sworn it was...:(

Maybe, but who would it be racist against??

The Joker

Honestly, I thought Wallace was the name of a white supremacist. Specifically a KKK member if I'm not mistaken. :(

Anybody know about this? For all I know, I could be confusing a book name character too. My memory isn't what it used to be. :erm:

Well there are probably 100's of Wallaces out in this world, but I did read in a Guide that the last name of Barret has something to do for a real life activis with the last name Wallace. Only if I could find that site again.
