Mcfarlane's line of DC action figures have so far been very Batman focused; however, I'm hoping that it will branch out to other corners of the DC universe soon and one group of characters I'd love to see done in this new figure line are Flash's colorful array of villains. He has some of the most creative, stand out rogues ranking among the top villainous groupings like Spiderman and Batman's foes. There are dozens to choose from, but I've narrowed this list down to five entries (kind of) and here are my choices!

5. CW villains
This could be an entire list on its own, as the CW The Flash tv show hasiven us loads of live action villains from the Flash comics over the 6 seasons it has aired. There are so many to choose from, from big bad foes like Reverse Flash, Zoom, and Savitar, to more minor villains like the Rival and Trickster, to frequently recurring foes such as Grodd. The Cw has already made an appearance in the line with Arrow, and hopefully Flash follows suit.

4. Rogues
Flash has a fantastic array of speedster villains, but the Rogues are a very popular team of villains who have fought Flash over the years. There are plenty of different versions of these characters for the line to choose from too, and quite a few I'd love to get as figures. Of course there is the very popular Captain Cold, but I'd also love other foes like Weather Wizard and Trickster. Monstrous Rogues such as Tarpit and Girder would also be incredible in plastic form.

3. Gorilla Grodd
Speaking of monstrous foes of the Flash, Gorilla Grodd has always been one of the most popular comic book villains from the scarlet speedster and is definitely due for a new figure since our last version was a build a figure from several years ago. A huge gorilla would no doubt be something highly unique in the line, especially if he comes wearing his battle armor.

2. Speedsters
Not to take away from the importance of the other villains I've talked about, but the Flash's greatest foes over the years have always tended to be the speedsters who possess the same gift of speed as the Flash. The most major without a doubt is Reverse Flash whose yellow suit would definitely help him stand out on the shelf, the same applies to Zoom. I'd be interested in seeing some of the others for once though. Comic book Savitar has a very interesting design with his shirtless look and long black hair, the recent armored Raijin would be very cool as well.

1. Red Death
While this character is a speedster, I'm putting him on his own because he is definitely my most wanted out of the Flash villains at this time. I loved the Dark Knights from Metal and Red Death was by far one of my favorites. He had a great storyline in which Barry Allen was able to take control again, and his design was extremely violent and will no doubt look great in figure form. The armored look with the deep red is a great design choice, and it would be another Dark Knight for the line!
