McFarlane Toys has just announced and launched the pre-order for a highly requested character from the DC Multiverse: Static (Trial By Fire). This new release is a Gold Label exclusive, making it available only through the McFarlane Toys Store (MTS) website.
The figure is based on the popular character Virgil Hawkins, who gained incredible electromagnetic powers after an event dubbed “The Big Bang.” As the wisecracking crusader Static, he takes on the superhuman crime infesting his city.
Figure Details and Exclusive Accessories
The Static (Trial By Fire) figure is presented in the standard DC Multiverse 7-inch scale and utilizes the Ultra Articulation design, providing up to 22 moving parts for dynamic posing.
As an MTS Gold Label exclusive, this figure comes with several key accessories that reference his comic book origins:
- Electric Rings: Two translucent electric rings to recreate his power effects.
- Trash Can Lid: A classic accessory from his early run, often used as a makeshift shield.
- Art Card and Base: An included collectible art card featuring character photography and a biography, plus a standard display base.
This specific “Trial By Fire” version likely references a specific comic arc or design, making it a desirable variant for deep-cut collectors.
