I just hate the designs so I'm ice cold on the figures.

Wally is just a repaint of a repaint. Not a bad body but if they are going to resculpt everything, give Wally a different body. Not surprised, just disappointed.

I would of course like a brand new proper Wally Flash with white eyes and great articulation which I know Mcfarlane is capable of.

Wallace Kid Flash - Reading the story, they really did draw the kid like he was in his 20's an able to match Wally muscle for muscle. Again I hate the design and I doubt it has any real torso articulation. But I can see a decent KF from it.

Also if they drop the abs on the upper torso, they could get more range. It's redundant as the lower torso already has abs.

Jay Garrick - True Flash Garrick again has an awful costume but I can see where a normal version is coming from. I really like the face sculpt. What does annoy me is they didn't paint the jacket. The top portion should be read. I'd rather they make it a red jacket over an all blue one. This one might have upper torso articulation.


Barry: I think the main body looks great except for the knees. The arms look awful............but they have two closed fists. Maybe if I painted the arms all black, this would be a solid figure. But then it would just be a black Flash. Which you might say, get the Dark Flash figures........but those are Walmart exclusives, so you won't be able to buy them.


The Darkest Knight though looks terrific. Reusing some of the plastic from Deathstorm. It looks monstrous but also eldritch.


All in all it's a great wave from this one shot, the designs from the comics are for me, an absolute trash fire. Made worse that there is no real Kid Flash, Jay Garrick, or a proper Wally West.


What's also bad is Dark Flash is possibly the best figure from this storyline and they made it a Walmart exclusive. They made it an exclusive from variant heads. This should have been part of the main wave so it would be possible to actually buy one and be able to actually buy a variant head. Heck it would have been very solid for a Wally West body.
