Top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane DC Multiverse Rebirth Superman series figures

Honorable mention: Female Fury Lois Lane
The Kent family and Luthor being stranded on Apokalips was one of the best storylines in the series, and Lois Lane becoming one of the Female Furies was just indescribably awesome! It wasn't something that lasted, but it is just such an awesome thing to say that Lois was part of that group, and her design would make a great figure to go alongside Superman! Her civilian design has never lended itself to the action figure world, but a design like this would be an easy way to give us a Lois Lane figure.
5. Eradicator
The first story arc we got in the series saw the Eradicator coming to earth and trying to eradicate the human portion of Jon's DNA. It was a really cool story that brought into play Jon's kryptonian heritage, and brought the fight to many major locations like the Fortress of Solitude, Metropolis, and ultimately one of Batman's hideaways on the moon! Eradicator had the honor of being the first awesome storyline in the series, and I really hope this iconic character gets a new figure soon! Bonus points if he comes with an alternate, black hole mouth head sculpt.
4. Manchester Black
The grand reveal of Manchester Black in the series had been a long time coming, almost since the beginning of the comic, and his mental prowess proved a true nightmare for Clark and his family. The fearsome telepath had some nasty tricks he pulled during the Black Dawn storyline, such as depicting Lois' leg being severed, and brainwashing Jon for a short time. I find it amazing though that he was seeded into the series so far ahead, another thing I loved about the series as everything seemed connected and flowed! Also, his ultimate fate is amazing and so humiliating for the character and I love it.
3. Mister Myxzptlk
The Superman Reborn storyline stands out as one of my favorite Superman storylines of all time. The initial reveal of Myxzptlk in general was handled so terrifically, and the merging of timelines to bring this Superman into the New 52/Rebirth world was such an insane event! Myxzptlk has always been one of the most unique and colorful foes of Superman's rogues gallery, and he is definitely due for another figure!
2. Jon
The biggest thing in my opinion that made this iteration of Superman stand apart from all other series before it was the simple fact that he now had a son, and Jon has become an iconic part of Superman's world, proving his popularity with fans. We're seeing the character go through even more growth now, with Future State giving glimpses of his future as the world's Superman, and he is growing up in present day with the Infinite Frontier event. I absolutely loved Jon in this series, and with so many Superman in the line already, we're due for a Superboy.
1. Superman and Super-Parallax
Just like my list talking about the New 52 series, Superman tops out this one as well. Superman is my favorite superhero of all time, and the Rebirth series is one of the best written Superman series I've read. Like I mentioned before, it was so much fun, and Superman has a beacon of hope and fun is the perfect way for the character to be depicted. We've got the basis now for the Rebirth Superman with the Bizarro figure Mcfarlane just released, so retooling that into Rebirth Superman should be no problem, hopefully meaning it will happen soon! Speaking of Superman, I'll also mention Super-Parallax from when Parallax infested the man of steel, making for another awesome design that would translate so well into plastic form!
