Two more McFarlane DC Multiverse figures have been unveiled via listings on the Walmart website in the US.
The first is Wally West as The Flash in the red suit as seen in DC Rebirth. He features a selection of speed force effects that can be attached to his arms, legs, and feet. He is listed as a Walmart Exclusive but he should get a wider release outside of the US, including via specialist stores here - but we await confirmation. He comes with a display stand and collector card.
The second figure is the Anti-Crisis Wonder Woman. This all-gold paint job is applied over the existing Death Metal Wonder Woman with an updated head sculpt. Despite McFarlane having a tendency to paint figures gold and call them chase figures, this one is accurate to the Death Metal Comics where the Anti-Crisis Wonder Woman is depicted as all gold from the Anti-Crisis energy. She will feature her Lasso of Truth chainsaw as well as the display stand and collectors card and again is a Walmart Exclusive.
While visiting the lab of his uncle-to-be, Barry Allen, the young Wally West was caught in a freak electrochemical accident which gave him the superpowers of the Speed Force, the extra-dimensional energy that powers all speedsters. Wally then became The Flash's protege, Kid Flash, and eventually took on the mantle of The Flash after Barry sacrificed himself to save the universe in Crisis on Infinite Earths. But, in the years since, Wally found himself trapped out of time and space after another crisis-level event. In the end, Wally was able to break free of this nothingness and return home to become The Flash once again!
Following the universe-shattering events of Dark Nights: Metal, the Earth is enveloped by the Dark Multiverse and has transformed into a hellish landscape twisted beyond recognition. Now, The Batman Who Laughs rules the planet, and in an attempt to defeat him, Wonder Woman uses her Invisible Jet and Lasso of Truth to forge a new weapon, the Chainsaw of Truth, and cut down the evil that stands in her way. Teaming up with Batman, Superman, and the other DC Super Heroes, Wonder Woman is on a mission to save the DC Multiverse!

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...
