The Story

When McFarlane Toys launched its inaugural DC Multiverse wave in 2020, this Flash and Batman Earth -52 two-pack announced the line's ambitions loudly: comic-accurate 7-inch articulated figures drawn directly from landmark modern source material, packaged in an oversized window-box designed to impress on a shelf as much as opened on a desk. For collectors who were tracking the transition from Mattel's DC tenure to Todd McFarlane's vision, this first-wave release carries genuine historical weight in the line's timeline.

Batman Earth -52 — The Red Death — is the standout character here. Drawn from Scott Snyder's celebrated Dark Nights: Metal event (debuting in Batman: The Red Death #1, 2017), this corrupted Dark Multiverse amalgam of Bruce Wayne and Barry Allen had virtually no prior action figure representation before this release, making him a notable addition to any Dark Nights display. The Flash figure draws from The Flash #1 (2018), rendered with the bold comic-accurate sculpting that became a McFarlane DC hallmark. Both figures stand in the 7-inch scale that defines the DC Multiverse line, featuring the high articulation count McFarlane brought as a deliberate departure from earlier DC figure offerings.

The two-pack format itself is significant to in-box collectors. The sculpted diorama base — depicting a rocky, battle-worn terrain that grounds both figures in a shared scene — was exclusive to this two-pack configuration and was never offered with single-carded releases. The oversized window-box features a clamshell-style clear acetate front display window, allowing a full unobstructed view of both figures posed on their shared base, with full-bleed comic art on the rear panel and the source comic citations printed directly on the packaging. Each figure ships with its own individual collectible trading card (English language only), a hallmark of McFarlane's early DC Multiverse packaging that adds a completionist dimension increasingly valued by in-box collectors.

This example is being sold as vintage and is assessed as complete and structurally intact. The window box shows general shelf wear consistent with age and storage. The clear acetate display window is present and intact. The figures remain in their original packaging on the diorama base. The rear panel's comic art and trilingual text (English, Spanish, French) are fully legible, and the 'Collect Them All' strip on the rear shows the wider first-wave lineup. Trading cards are included as issued. Condition details beyond this qualitative assessment are captured in the product metafields. We're happy to answer specific condition questions before purchase — contact us directly.

As an early, first-wave McFarlane DC Multiverse release featuring a sought-after Dark Nights: Metal character in a two-pack format that has not been reissued, mint-in-box examples trade less frequently than standard single releases. This is a legitimate piece of early McFarlane DC Multiverse collecting history. All items sold at Jay's Toys are authentic and sourced responsibly.
