The Ultimate McFarlane Rumor Thread

[Gardner Grayle]

I’ve got a note on my phone where I’ve been tracking McFarlane rumors almost from the start. Coming from various sources with varying degrees of accuracy and authenticity, I think it might have a place here and be somewhat interesting. Starting with rumors less than three years old beginning with NYCC 2022.

New 52 Wonder Woman. Apparently there was a hand drawn placeholder there for her.

Donna Troy/Star field costume. From Zombie Bagelzz on Instagram.

Trigon. Rumored to be the CtB for the Titans wave. Got a curveball with Gorilla Garth.

Despero. Alternate CtB for the JLTF wave.

Talia, Harley Quinn (modern), and classic Scarecrow confirmed by Jim Fletcher at SDCC 2024.

Platinum FA E-2 Robin.

Rocket. Ancillary to Icon.

Guardian (assuming Jim Harper) from NYCC 2024 fan poll.

Troika Batman.

Batwing Luke Fox.

GA Steve Trevor. Supposed Red Platinum with the GA Wonder Woman. Obsidian is said to be the Red Platinum of Mr. Bones. Alex Chen rumor.

Zatanna, Poison Ivy, Black Canary. From Zombie Bagelzz again.

.Etrigan. Hoping for a more classic version, likely a repaint of Demon Knights Etrigan.

Cyborg/Darkseid 2-pack.

There’s been no leaks yet for Q2. Dunno if it’s the tariffs, the loss of the license, the prominence of the Superman movie figures, or new procedures put in place by upper management to fight the leaks.

Older rumors include:

Red X

Earth 3 Johnny Quick

Death Metal Harley Quinn

Jason Todd as Batman. Makes sense now that firearms are back.

Red Rain Batman

New 52 Kid Flash. I’d take both.

Metal Superman and Wonder Woman to go with the Batman from a few years ago.

Group Rumors include:

Knight Terrors. I’m sure this was shit canned.

Watchmen

Creature Commandos. I presume based on the show.

WildCATS

Infinity Inc. It’s said Todd is being “nostalgic”.

Please join in with any other rumors you have.

Zatanna, Poison Ivy, Black Canary

I've heard this one twice last month via YouTube. Could just be the telephone game, but I really want it to be true before the line closes out.

Feel like you would want to do the Canary from her current series. I would love magicians Zatanna but if we got to go with the classic costume that's cool. Ivy has so many looks. None of them would disappoint me.
