Didn't know if you guys had seen either of these that were sent to me the other day. This is Mattel's upcoming Batgirl figure: This is a redo of Batman cover 197: -S

Good to see you posting Scot. Nice images too. Batgirl looks nice and that spoof TV style cover is the tops. Who drew it do you know? Thanks for sharing and pop in again when you can mate.

Yeah, the new 4 Horsemen sculpted figures shown in Lee's look incredible. I am very excited for the line. I just hope they don't make either of the Batgirls (Babs in grey or Cassandra in Black) a chase figure, as says the current rumor.

That batgirl reminds me very much of the WB batgirl figure i have, how close to the WB would you say this one is by comparison? Thanks for Marty pointing out the TV refences on the comic cover, I looked at the picture and that went right over my head. Cool stuff. Will

Here is the original comic book cover to compare. A great piece of work whoever did the pastiche for sure. I could be a real TV BATMAN geek and say that Yvonne should be facing off against Eartha Kitt and not Julie Newmar but I guess artistic licence is appropriate here as Julie is the definitive TV Catwoman for most fans. Amazing work and thanks Scot for sharing with us lot.

I hope that Batgirl isn't a chase figure too! Lousy chase figures...mumble...grumble...
That comic cover is the coolest. I'm glad you posted the original for comparison Mart, just makes the cleverness and and really nice artwork all the more apparent.
Thanks for digging these up for us Scot! It IS nice to have you dipping back in.
