McFarlane DC Multiverse Collector Edition Simon Baz Green Lantern, Mister Terrific, and Grid

Updated: Oct 17

McFarlane has shared these early looks at three new DC Multiverse Collector Edition releases including Simon Baz Green Lantern, Mister Terrific (JSA), and Grid from Forever Evil.



All three are live for pre-orders as of the 17th of October 2024. And there are Platinum versions available for all three which are randomly distributed within the main distribution channels. These Platinum chase variants include a different costume and face paint for Mr. Terrific, a white accent costume for Green Lantern, and a repainted variant of Grid,


We've had them all added to our extensive McFarlane Collector Database



The pre-Flashpoint Michael Holt lost his wife in an accident and was visited by the Spectre, who told him about the Golden Age Mister Terrific (Terry Sloane). This inspired Holt to become a Super Hero and continue the Mister Terrific legacy. He became the chairman of the Justice Society of America and developed a friendly rivalry with Batman. In an ironic twist, the post-Flashpoint Michael Holt was captured by Earth-2's Mister Terrific, Terry Sloan, when he was stranded in that reality



As a Muslim growing up in Michigan, Simon Baz was often the target of bigotry. After he lost his job at an automotive plant, Simon started stealing cars to make ends meet. One night he stole a van, and discovered a ticking bomb inside the vehicle. After a high-speed chase he was taken into custody as a suspected terrorist. Amid harsh interrogation by federal agents, a power ring sought Baz out, conferring on him the abilities and responsibilities of a Green Lantern. A reluctant Super Hero, Baz considered the selection a mistake, but sought to do his best to help people.



Grid was a software program that gathered information for Cyborg. The program grew and evolved into a living computer virus. In its new, malevolent form, this sentient form of artificial intelligence attacked the Justice League, forming an alliance with Earth-3's Crime Syndicate. For its invaluable services, Grid demanded two things: a body, culled from the robotic prostheses of Cyborg, and emotions, which was its ultimate goal

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
