McFarlane Toys Reveals First Look at DC Multiverse Eradicator Figure

"We are here because we are fated to be here."
McFarlane Toys has posted an exclusive first look at their upcoming DC Multiverse Eradicator Gold Label 7" scale figure which will be a Walmart Exclusive.
After Superman was killed by Doomsday, the Fortress of Solitude robots reactivated the Eradicator's consciousness, driving it to 'steal' Superman's body and take it to the Fortress. With Superman's body as a template, the Eradicator was able to create a new humanoid form for itself based on Superman's own, but dependent on Superman's corpse to act as a 'battery' for it, with Superman absorbing solar radiation that was then channeled into the Eradicator. As a result of this new form, the Eradicator came to believe itself to be Superman on some level, showing access to some of his memories- although it lacked his vision powers and instead fired energy blasts from its hands- but it also adopted a more ruthless approach, such as killing a would-be rapist and breaking a safecracker's hands. After Superman's body was restored to life, the Eradicator realized the truth of its nature and sacrificed itself to help restore Superman to full strength during the final confrontation with the Cyborg Superman.
In addition to the recently announced DC Multiverse Kon-El Superboy action figure, the Eradicator is that latest 7" scale figure from the "Reign of the Supermen" storyline.
Although no official announcement has been made at this time, McFarlane Toys will most likely announce figures based on Steel (John Henry Irons) and Cyborg Superman (Hank Henshaw) in the near future.
