Part of the 2nd set of
Justice Lords.
Just like Wonder Woman, it wasn't based on any previous
Flash figures but instead put on a generic sculpt to avoid painting over
etched details that contradict the design. There has been some debate over
the boots. Reviewing the DVD tells us that this Flash was modeled two ways,
with full red boots and one with yellow boots that are topped with two
red straps (strapped like all the other Lorders). To be faithful to the
cartoon this figure should have the circuitry as the Brainiac bot versions
Superman and Batman, since that's the only time he appeared. It's a nice
round-up to the Lorders though.
Oddly enough, the figure
makes a second appearance partnering up with Hawkman and Rocket Red for a
Series 6 3-pack. Currently, this is the only Justice Lord figure to be
(rather randomly) available outside of other Justice Lord packs, perhaps
this is due to its resemblance to another Flash villain, Professor Zoom, the
reverse Flash. In the Hawkman pack he is renamed from just being 'The Flash'
to 'Alt. Flash' while the rest of the Justice Lords are labeled as 'Justice
Lords'. The main reason may be because this particular version of the Flash
was really never a Justice Lord to begin with.
