DC Multiverse Dark Flash (Speed Metal) Gold Label Collection Action Figure (2022 McFarlane Toys)

For collectors chasing the darker corners of DC's multiverse, the Dark Flash from Joshua Williamson's Dark Nights: Death Metal – Speed Metal storyline stands apart as one of the most unsettling entries in McFarlane's modern DC Multiverse run. This corrupted, zombie-like reimagining of the Flash — black suit, gold accents, exposed rotting face — translates the horror-inflected comic art into a highly detailed 7-inch figure that earns its place in any serious Speed Force or Dark Nights collection.

This is a Gold Label Collection release, McFarlane's designation for short-run, retailer-exclusive figures produced in significantly smaller quantities than mainline DC Multiverse waves. As a Walmart exclusive from 2022, retail availability dried up quickly after launch. Finding a clean, unplayed example now takes real effort, which is part of what drives sustained collector interest in this particular piece.

The figure itself delivers 22 points of articulation, giving it strong posability relative to its scale. The sculpt captures the character's aggressive, hunched running pose seen throughout the source comic — clawed grasping hands, gold wing details on the cowl, gold wrist gauntlets contrasting against the matte black suit with gold lightning bolt accents on the legs. The undead facial expression, with bared teeth and hollow eyes, is sharply rendered and faithful to the comic design.

We've examined this example closely. The window box presents well: the black-and-white collector packaging is structurally sound, corners are tight, and the large front blister window is clear with no crazing or pressure marks. The Gold Label emblem on the front upper-left is vivid. Figure and accessories are undisturbed in the original tray. This is a collector-grade, mint-in-box specimen — exactly the condition Dark Nights completists and display collectors are looking for.

Accessories are visible and intact in the tray: the translucent gold speed force lightning effect piece and a display stand are both present. The rear panel features full character photography showcasing multiple angles of the figure's dynamic sculpt. Side panels carry the Dark Flash / Speed Metal designation in the DC Multiverse branding style.
