The New Batman Adventures - BATGIRL!

The New Batman Adventures - 16 - Batgirl - DC Collectibles 2015

This Batman Animated line is rocking my world.  Although I never got into any of the shows when they were first aired, I have since grown to really appreciate them (as well as the character designs).  It's a very difficult feat to collect all the animated Batgirl figures.  Trust me, I've tried.  So many years ago I gave up and set out to find the single best one.  Needless to say this new figure knocks all my previous purchases out of the water.  It's actually hard to review these figures because I don't have anything critical to say about them at all.  Something I really love about this series is that they are alternating the styles of Batman:The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures. Eventually I'm sure we'll have one of each style for all the characters.  Batman and Robin each have two different figures in the line, and apparently a TNBA Harley was secretly shown at SDCC (to compliment the BTAS version Harley due later this year). I'm very excited for this line.  Let's check out Batgirl in detail below!



















Sculptor Irene Matar is killing it with the animated style action figures.  Batgirl is perfect.






This figure comes with five sets of hands and three weapons.












Batgirl also comes with the standard figure stand.









Here are a few images of Batgirl from the show.







Like I did with Poison Ivy, I went all OCD and made a chart showing the animated progression of Babs Batgirl.  NOTE: There are more appearances of her out of costume or as Oracle that I did not include.
















Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!


Here she is with the only other current TNBA lady in the line so far, Poison Ivy.
The scale differences are perfect.






Cheers!

  1. She looks great. I'm considering making this line my blanket birthday/xmas list this year, since I have yet to nab any from the line.

    1. It's a pretty amazing line so far. They're a bit pricey, but overall worth it. Be sure to choose the best Harley for your list. I believe she's coming out in Standard, Metallic, and Nightie versions.... and that's just the BTAS sculpt. The TNBA version is apparently sculpted but not shown yet. I'm skipping Roxy and Zatanna for budget reasons unfortunately.
