DC Multiverse Gold Label Collection — Midnighter (DC Classic) Target Exclusive (2023 McFarlane Toys)
For Authority and Wildstorm devotees, the wait for a modern, high-articulation Midnighter figure was a long one. Released in November 2023 as a Target retail exclusive within McFarlane's premium Gold Label sub-line, this 7-inch DC Classic figure represents the first serious mainstream action figure treatment of the cult-favorite anti-hero created by Warren Ellis and Mark Millar. The Gold Label designation marks it as a step above the standard DC Multiverse assortment — higher retailer specificity, tighter distribution, and elevated collector appeal from day one.
The DC Classic designation is meaningful here: this figure captures Midnighter in his comics-accurate black-and-white costume from the Wildstorm-era Authority run, not a screen adaptation or alternate-universe variant. The stark monochromatic color scheme — black tactical jacket and mask over white pants, with the iconic circular chest emblem — is rendered with the sharp paint application and sculpt detail McFarlane's Gold Label releases are known for. With 22 points of articulation, this figure exceeds the posability of many standard DC Multiverse releases, giving both display collectors and openers genuine flexibility for dynamic shelf arrangements.
The package itself is a collector-grade window box: a black card surround with a clear blister window keeps the figure and accessories fully visible, while the Gold Label Collection foil seal in the upper left corner and the '22 Moving Parts' banner along the top distinguish it immediately on the shelf. The back panel features a full-art comic illustration of Midnighter — depicting him diving into a crowd of armed opponents — labeled 'Midnighter — DC Classic,' with DC Multiverse and McFarlane Toys branding running along the spine.
This example presents in excellent collectible condition. The card surround is structurally sound with well-defined corners and edges, the black card stock shows strong color saturation, and the clear blister window is intact with good clarity and tight adhesion to the card. The Gold Label foil seal is present and undamaged. The figure and all accessories are factory-positioned within the tray and have not been removed. A strong candidate for MOC display or long-term collection holding.
As a Target-exclusive Gold Label release with limited retail footprint and a character underrepresented in the modern collector market, this figure commands consistent demand among DC Multiverse completists and Authority/Wildstorm fans alike.

Jays is my first stop in collecting. I preorder things through Walmart, Amazon, Hasbro Pulse, etc., but Jays always seem to get the items and either meet or beat the other companies pricing. I always end up cancelling my pre-orders and going with Jays. Better selection, price and MUCH MUCH better shipping quality. You can't even compare anyone else's shipping and packing to Jays. And that's why Jay's blows them all out of the water.
Great fast shipping, packaging with care. I am definitely buying from Jay's again! Such peace of mind knowing my items will arrive minty. 5 stars!
Perfect and careful packaging, shipped super quick. Thank you, will definitely be following the store!
Didn't pull any punches in item description. Came extremely fast and well packed. Extremely happy being a first time buyer! Thank you.
I've been buying from Jay's for a while now and I am never disappointed with the experience. Prices that can't be beat, easy PayPal option, and lots of bubble wrap surrounding the products. The fact that they go out of their way to make consumers happy keeps me coming back.
This is my 3rd or 4th time I have ordered from Jay's. The orders are always correct and arrive pretty quick and packaged extremely well. Best in the industry.
