My intern's birthday was a few weeks ago, and she ended up getting a handful of the
DC Superhero Girls action figures.
I wanted to see how her new
Batgirl matched up with my
Power Attack Batmobile from 2012, and the pair look made for each other!
I found this Batmobile at the flea market last year, and the flimsy tailfins have some plastic stress discoloration (they're pretty cheap and thin, so this is probably a very common issue if you find one of these second-hand). It was also missing two of the three attachments/projectiles it originally came with, but it had the best one...the buzz-saw...so I can't complain.
Also, it only cost me a dollar. A dollar Batmobile is better than a dollar every day of the week!
The DC Superhero Girls action figures are great figures. They're well designed and engineered, and they are pretty fairly priced at around $9.99 each. They don't have accessories per se - Batgirl's hood is removable, and maybe her 'bat-pack' too, but I wouldn't consider those accessories in the general sense. Regardless, at least they don't all come with a stupid BAF piece and cost $20 each.
Although, a DC Superhero Girls Giganta BAF would be AWESOME!
The buzz-saw (and other projectiles that I don't own) launch when you push down on the middle...I don't know what those are...exhaust ports? Fuel injection units? And the Bat-Face becomes a battering ram (Bat-ering ram?) when you push the whole hood down.
Batgirl digs her new ride. If only she had her learner's permit.
Cool!
ReplyDeleteDoes your (intern's) Katana have the thick wrists? I didn't get an answer on "She's Fantastic" to my query.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check later today and get back to you. She's still boxed up and in hiding for Christmas.
DeleteSo I checked, and although ours is still in package and I only have shesfantastic's pics to compare it to, the wrists on ours seem normally proportioned.
