McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Batgirl from Batman: Three Jokers 7" Action Figure with Accessories

I finally got this figure! I'm extremely pleased with this one. This is the figure that McFarlane SHOULD'VE released in his first Multiverse line, instead of the Jim Lee All Star Batman Batgirl. This Three Jokers Line version of Batgirl is the Classic Batgirl; the Batgirl that was headlining comics with the design showcased here. Barbara Gordon was the first Batgirl, but there was a Batwoman back in the 30's and 40's. Batgirl was Commissioner Gordon's precocious daughter, who wanted to make a difference while still indulging her taste for adventure, and danger. This figure was everything I hoped it would be, and it is the best and most anticipated figure for me, this entire year. I thought her bodysuit would be all black with the yellow, but they did the design from the comics, both old and new, so it's nearly black. It's dark Grey with the black cape and cowl. The sculpt on her face is strong and determined, rather than curious and cheeky, like previous versions brought to us by DC Collectibles, and very much like the first McFarlane figure. Alot of people will be frustrated with her eyes being painted, looking off to the left of her. Personally I feel like this gives her some personality, and it's refreshing. She looks like she's ready to clobber some fool who decided to attack her, just askew of her peripherals, and it makes her look alert, which is perfect for a member of the Bat-family. I was afraid that the cape would be a re-use from the first McFarlane Batgirl, because it was terrible, but it is an all new sculpt. Fortunately the headsculpt and cape make enough of a differentiation from the Jim Lee design. The parts that are re-used are the body sculpt pieces; legs, boots, arms, gloves, and the torso. It's most of the figure, that's being re-used, but the color scheme tones down the similarities enough. All in all it's top notch quality, and I'm glad to have this figure. It's the best overall in sculpt, scale, and poseability.

Well done item as a collectable. My definitive Batgirl for my collection

This figure looks fantastic in person. Much better than the protos pics used in online stores. There's been talks about her legs looking very long for her body, but the real issue here is that the pin that connects her head to her neck, is a tad bit too short and this is whats creating the proportion issue. So I actually crafted a longer ball pin joint to replace the factory one (just one ball longer than the factory one) and as you can see in my pics, it looks much much better. Without it, it just looks like she barely has a neck and it makes her legs look even longer. Still workable this way but yet... if you feel the legs are long and are crafty with plastic, do what I did and replace her neck joint with a longer pin. :) Great face sculpt, even with the side-eye. Poses real well too.

Very traditional style that is well designed to match comic art.

For the most part I've avoided Mcfarlane figures since the first Superman & Flash releases, but this one makes me tentatively optimistic to hop back on board. Despite some very minor gripes that are fairly analogous with most of McFarlane’s figures (legs, ankle ball joints, limited head movement)... I love this figure the more I handle it. It does also seem that her eyes are fixed looking to the side a bit, which while stylistically very cool is also very annoying if you just want your figures to look head on. I'm an artist and I use these figures as reference as well as collector's items. So I know how to fudge things if I need to and tend to not get caught up in too many fixed details on figures, so long as they don't hinder movement or disrupt the silhouette too much. But I can definitely see how those things might annoy others. All in all, beautiful figure. Definitely worth every penny. Janky ankles, over-long legs & some hindered movement as can be expected by a lot of Mcfarlane figures... but overall she's still the best Batgirl we've gotten so far imo.

Nice figur. Fantastic! I did had a little struggle trying to stand her up with out the base. But still a great figure for any batman fan.

Great

Came with everything, was in perfect condition, one of the best mcfarlane figures I’ve ordered fast shipping came in three days before it said.

Sehr schnelle Lieferung und die Verpackung/Polsterung war für Amazon geradezu supersicher! Die Figur an sich ist ein typisches McFarlane-Produkt: Hohe Qualität, ausreichend Zubehör und eine Figur, mit der es richtig Spass macht, sich zu beschäftigen. Bin sehr Zufrieden.

Bonita figura basada en la versión del cómic de su mismo nombre. Buen esculpido y detalles. Recomendable.

The black and yellow colors add a nice touch to the shelf. Legs are a bit long but other than that I don't really mind the side eyes that much and is one of the best Mcfarlane Batgirl out there.

It could have been one of the best dc if not the eye is looking sideway.

This is my six McFarlane figure so I am kind used to knowing what to expect out of the box. The build durability varies from figure to figure. Lobo and Lex being the best and Zod with Wonder Woman the worst. With the out of shot Space Marine middle build durability like this Batgirl. Batgirl has over long thick legs and small upper body frame and arms. Following the pose on the box this makes those differences less obvious.
