There have been many Batgirls over the years, but it all started with the original 1960s Batman TV series. The network wanted more characters, so the producers thought “why not a Bat….girl?” The idea was brought forth that Commissioner Gordon’s daughter could be a crimefighter, and the comics would adopt that notion later on. Cryptzoic’s latest DC statue is a tribute to that original Batgirl, clad in her yellow and purple outfit and matching cape. All that’s missing is the motorcycle, but it would probably cost extra. The figure is a stylized take on what was an actual actress, designed by Pedro Astudillo and sculpted by Anders Ehrenborg. Batgirl is seven and a half inches tall. But if your Batgirl looks like this, don’t call the manufacturer complaining that it’s defective…. This is the “Gold Onyx Edition,” which will affect one of every twelve shipped copies. They will be painted in black and gold only and just 91 of them will be made. Stylish figure based on Batgirl from Batman Classic Series TV Series Rare Gold Onyx Edition: one chase figure in each case of 12 figures! Individually numbered to 91 on sticker on box Unique packaging and sticker TV […]

Wow! This is such a nostalgia trip for me! I remember watching reruns of the 60s Batman show with my parents when I was younger, and Batgirl always stood out. Cryptozoic really nailed the look with the bright purple and yellow outfit, just like in the show! I love how they even included a rare Gold Onyx Edition; it makes me want to preorder and cross my fingers for one of those exclusive ones! Definitely adding this to my growing DC figure collection.

This is such a fantastic tribute to the classic Batgirl! I grew up watching the Batman show in the 60s, and Yvonne Craig as Batgirl was always my favorite. The yellow and purple costume brings back so many memories! I might have to treat myself to this figure for my office—it’s definitely something I could smile at every day.
