Toying Around Reviews - DC Multiverse: Rebirth Reverse-Flash
DC Multiverse: Rebirth Reverse-Flash
Today we will be taking a look at the Reverse-Flash from the DC Multiverse line. This Reverse-Flash is labeled as being from DC Rebirth. Overall over the years, his look hasn’t changed too much.
McFarlane Toys, a subsidiary of Todd McFarlane Productions, is a company founded by comics creator Todd McFarlane which makes highly detailed model figurines of characters from movies, comics, popular music, video games, and various sporting genres.
PACKAGING:
Before we open this up, let's take a look at the packaging.
Starting at the front of the box, we have a nice big window that lets us see the figure and everything he comes with. The top of the box lets us know that the figure has 22 points of articulation. The bottom of the box has the DC Multiverse logo as well as Reverse-Flash’s name.
Turning the box to the side we have the name of the figure, and where the inspiration for the figure came from.
The back of the box is a little different than most, we do not get a picture of the figure, but rather the artwork from where the inspiration came from. The same goes for the rest of the figures in the wave, we get the artwork, no figure pictures.
Turning the box around one more time we get a small window that lets us see the figure.
OUTSIDE OF THE BOX:
Let's open the box and take a closer look at the figure.
Taking the Reverse-Flash out of the box we can see that overall the figure is just a reuse of the Flash that came out last year, as he is the reverse I’m sure no one has an issue with this.

RATING:
What are Baby Huey's scores for the figure?
PAINT JOB 5/5
There is only a little bit of paint on the figure as the body is molded in yellow, but what paint is on the figure is done very well.
FIGURE SCULPT 4/5
The sculpt of the figure works very well for any Speed type figure, it's tall and lanky.
POSING 5/5
You can get this guy into just about any pose you would like to.
ACCESSORIES: 5/5
The speed effects, like the ones for Flash, work really well on this figure.
DURABILITY 5/5
The plastic on him is good and doesn’t feel like it’s going to break at all.
OVERALL SCORE 4.8/5
If you have the Flash figure then you already know what to expect from this guy, and he is the perfect counterpart….or should I say reverse for him :-P
RETAIL COST: $19.99
I picked mine up at AMAZON.
