Top 5 most wanted McFarlane DC Multiverse Wonder Woman figures vol 2
Superman and especially Batman have been getting lots of variations and treatments in Mcfarlane DC Multiverse line of action figures, but another figurehead of the DC world is no doubt Wonder Woman who by far deserves quite a few more figures to honor such an incredible character! We've gotten her DCEU look, her awesome Death Metal design, not to mention her look from the Last Knight on Earth, and Mcfarlane's own spin on the character; however, the character's history is long and expansive as is her costume wardrobe. So here are my top 5 most wanted Wonder Woman figures from Mcfarlane vol 2!

As soon as this made an appearance in the comic world I have no doubts that Mcfarlane will eventually release a gold tinted Death Metal Wonder Woman figure to honor this look from the Death Metal finale! We've gotten several characters already coated in different colors such as the Golden Red Death, so the precedent for a gold Death Metal Wonder Woman to be easily produced is high!
A very obvious one for them to do right now would be release a standard Rebirth era designed Wonder Woman from the line to go with more standard looks for the characters like the already released Superman, Flash, and Green Lantern among others! While simple, this design evokes the images of Wonder Woman we always think of, and would make for a really fantastic figure!
Just like her Rebirth design, this one is more straight and forward unlike some of the more Metal inspired designs Mcfarlane has stuck with so far, but I would really like to see this design translated as well into figure form by the new rights holder. The predominant silver use instead of gold on her costume was a nice touch, and her roles in New 52 stories like the Darkseid War helped me really love this look.
Introduced in a big fanfare by DC comics, Yara Flor has been set up as the Wonder Woman of the future, with her effectively taking over the mantle as of Future State: a possible future of the DC universe. I honestly really loved the character when I first read her in the Future State event and her mini series was one of the best from that series in my opinion, her energy was fun, the red and dull blue for her costume design is striking, and with her own "Wonder Girl" origin series now coming out I hope Mcfarlane gives us a figure to celebrate the newest member of the Amazonian family.
A really fun storyline that I ended up enjoying a lot was the Endless Winter storyline from last winter that pitted the Justice League against an ancient, frosty foe who once battle a spiritual predecessor to modern day's Justice League. For this chilling event, both Batman and Wonder Woman got new arctic inspired outfits for the cold and I actually really liked both of these looks. With the winter season once again coming up too, it could be the perfect time to finally release Diana's arctic attire!
While not typically thought of when thinking about different Wonder Woman designs, Superwoman herself is a version of Wonder Woman and one I would absolutely love to see made as an action figure! While I was already a big fan of the Crime Syndicate, Forever Evil made me fall head over heels in love with the characters and blasted them straight to the top of my wishlists when Mcfarlane got the license to make figures. Her barbed wire lasso is such a cool idea, and the character's reappearance in the Infinite Frontier mini series gives even more precedent for a new Superwoman figure!
