As we reach the release of DC's Shazam! Fury of the Gods, McFarlane have been promoting their 7-inch DC Multiverse figures from this latest DC movie. We had already seen the Shazam figure, and now the team have unveiled a new Wonder Woman figure as part of the Fury of the Gods series.
Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman's appearance in Shazam! Fury of the Gods was recently revealed in a new TV spot trailer and this accompanying figure reflects that appearance by repurposing the original Wonder Woman 1984 figure with what appears to be updated thighs, and a new head sculpt with a removable tiara. She also includes two versions of her Lasso of Truth, one unfurled and the other wound up.
Both Shazam and Wonder Woman are listed as April 2023 releases. At this stage this pair represents the entire Shazam 2 line - so it is nowhere nearly as expansive as the recent release of Black Adam or indeed the upcoming Flash movie.
Billy Batson’s parents died when he was still a baby. The orphaned child believed he had no one to rely on and had to fend for himself. But one day, he was guided to the Rock of Eternity, where the ancient wizard Shazam waited. The world needed heroes and the boy became the wizard’s new champion, able to transform himself into an adult superhero by calling down a magical bolt of lightning. Now, whenever evil must be stopped or people are in need of help, Earth can rely on the power of Shazam!
From Amazon princess to the world’s greatest warrior, Wonder Woman is at the height of her power but living a quiet life as Smithsonian curator Diana Prince. Her compassion for mankind is strong despite man’s flaws. But now she must again draw on her incredible strength, courage and wisdom.

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...
