Barney the Dinosaur (1997-1998)

Barney's reddish-purple color becomes a little darker, his colors overall becoming stronger and vibrant than before, and his face gets a bit of a redesign, with the eyes becoming bigger and fuller than the last costume, and the head shrunken down slightly and becoming even rounder. The blinking mechanism is still present, but it is not as noticeable than in previous seasons (especially when Barney's jumping up and down). The toe balls on Barney's feet are also bigger. NOTE: This costume was always used on the "Barney Says" segments from Seasons 4-6. Barney's voice gets slightly, but noticeably deeper, especially around the time Josh Martin was in the costume, due to Bob West having to dub over Duncan Brannan's lines after production of Barney's Great Adventure.
