JAY GARRICK'S REVERSE-FLASH? McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label The Rival Action Figure Review

#mcfarlanetoys #dcmultiverse #actionfigures #theflash
Edward Clariss was just Jay Garrick's chemistry teacher until he cracked the formula that gave the Golden Age Flash his powers. Now, he's not just his teacher...he's his Rival!
Today, I'm taking a look at the Target Exclusive DC Multiverse Gold Label Rival. Huge thanks to McFarlane Toys for sending it to me to review!

I'm very happy about the fact that McFarlane sent you this figure! now we can confirm that the improvements on the superpower line where made thanks to you !

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Aw shucks. Well thank ye, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who talked about Super Powers

[@BilSande4]

I've seen this figure hanging around my local Target for a few weeks now, but since I'd never heard of him, I didn't bother picking him up. However, now knowing that he's been around since the Golden Age, I may have to grab him while he's still in stores.

[@whitezombified]

I wanna see a leg and boot swap on the two flashes , that would really make the classic figure pop

[@PeterTennant]

I got him and used the Platinum Jay Garrick (Darker Color more Show Season 2 Zoom Flash) I used that head sculpt on this figure.

[@nerox2984]

jeje the jokes about paint in the noise jeje. Nice review pal!

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Thank you!

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

Frightening! 😮

[@dahhmlife]

4+ on the peg at all 4 Target stores near me.

[@Crim-kun]

Kcirrag Yaj is such a cool character ans glad they did him injustice

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I see what you did there!

[@bagginsfrodos]

He looks nice! I love the darker colors on him

[@danielruiz2548]

The first time I saw the rival was in the flash season 3. But that’s about it. I knew he was a “reverse flash” for jay Garrick. When they announced this figure I thought, “wow evil head on a reuse”. But it makes sense. And I saw it in stores and bought it. It’s such a cool figure.

[@BadAssXerx3]

good review, don't know this guy but he looks cool and with this smile he would like to meet the laughing one

[@bujindork]

Playing the clearance game with this one. If it doesn't work no biggie.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I have a feeling you're safe

[@andrebrown1835]

Every flash related video I'm constantly looking at the hands😂 to see if one would be a good match with kid flash BAF wave, rebirth seems like it would be the right size, love we are diving more into the JSA side Dr Mid-night would be cool

[@ernestoosornoviquez2641]

Interesting reuse/repaint

[@SteelIsNotReal]

Speaking of Flash figures, have you managed to pick up the Dawn of DC Wally West Flash? If you ever get around to it, it'd be cool to see him next to Spawn 2-Pack Batman and Mullet Superman. Also I'd honestly be kinda interested to see that figure in a VS with the COIE Kid Flash lol

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Still haven't found him. As for the Crisis Wally, I haven't been willing to pull the trigger because of the price, but we'll see

[@SteelIsNotReal]

I was actually able to get the whole Crisis wave and the Anti-Monitor on sale earlier this year, so hopefully they'll go on sale again soon since it's really not a bad wave of figures, it was just asking for way too much money...

[@michaelb2226]

Walter white, rival comparison is so funny. Considering how speed villianised them.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Ha! True lol

[@andrewflashchannelgibbs5384]

His gangly limbs look like the Skar King from Godzilla x Kong. 😂

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Proportions aren't McFarlane's best strength, but in this case I think it's the fingerless gloves and the running hands making the arms look longer.

[@brianh3253]

Good price point but I prefer classic JG.

[@666hellviewlane]

They definitely need to utilize those eyes in different characters they make I don’t care if they’re just reuse but they need to put those eyes on a another speedster like the reverse flash at least if we ever get a silver age non-rebirth version or one that’s different than the one that uses the same body as new Wally, not to happy with that p.s this body is a good sculpt, like the jay gerrick counterpart

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah. Again I don't know how I feel about the painted shading by the lightning is pretty cool

[@Pravuss]

I picked up this figure to swap out the Jay Garrick head and have a figure that better matches the color scheme of the comics.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Yeah, the colors are great

[@michaelb2226]

I got the rival just because of his color scheme and head swap him.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I really like the colors on him

[@edrianraneses5864]

I just wondered if you're planning on reviewing the dc multiverse mcfarlane toys new 52 Cyborg Superman and Superman our worlds at war figure soon but also I hoped you can considered reviewing the eradicator to complete the team despite his design not being the usual classic Jason are you?

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I preordered Cyborg Superman, but by Our Worlds at War do you mean the Gladiator Superman? If so, I reviewed him a long time ago in a Versus with Planet Hulk.

[@edrianraneses5864]

@@5POAFigureReviews Yeah about what I said no it is not another gladiator superman figure no it is the Ed mcguinnis superman our worlds at war design from the comci in which he has the black symbol I'd hoped you do a review on soon but also do not forget eradicator too to complete the reign of supermen team

[@AnointedFlow]

This figure is a peg warmer

[@MTB214]

I’ve got the original one but not interested in this bad version. The WB flash show is where I know my flash characters mostly from.

[@nybackyardlegend4]

I made the 100th like, andcI only bought this because it was pegging.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Awesome, thanks!

[@jasonrollins980]

4 on pegs at target I have jay... one of last years best I think Jay's colors are perfect Im not going sugar coat it this is lazy and i dont care for it. Sorry to be negative.

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Hey not every figure is going to be for everyone, I'm not offended. The way I see it, my job as a reviewer is to help you decide which figures are right for you. Sometimes that means what figures you can pass on by

[@CRIS_IS_ON_INFINITE_EARTHS]

Imagine if this figure completely sucked, Jason could've said "This figure was dead on arRIVAL".

[@5POAFigureReviews]

Hahaha very good. I wish I had thought of it!

[@keithwhite394]

Yeah never heard of him

[@mondayadams8166]

Ew I got a conservative ad lmao I wish KZbin would understand I'm a trans woman lmao

[@5POAFigureReviews]

I've been getting a lot of ads in Spanish, so maybe KZbin is fiddling with the algorithm?

[@ravenpowell9312]

a pain i know well :P
