This high-quality Batgirl action figure, from the "Justice" line of toys based on the art of Alex Ross, is a beautiful chunk of superhero plastic. She is made of sturdy material and is exquisitely sculpted and painted. Comes with a batarang accessory. Nine points of articulation. Highly recommended. Also, she loks great with the Batman and Supergirl figures from this line. Highly recommended.

My 5 year old daughter loves it! She can now have a doll that shows a woman who is more than a shallow, spoiled bimbo chasing guys and shopping. She is not trapped in the age old stereotypes. She can now play as a strong, powerful woman who can kick butt as well as being beautiful.

This is the ultimate Batgirl figurine, in my opinion. Alex Ross and the sculptures outdid themselves here. Absolutely stunning. I can't say enough, but if you want a video review, check out "Toys1252" on YouTube for some high definition film.

She comes with a stand and a small baterang she can kind of hold in her hand. You can kind of move her arms and bend her knees, but I would consider this more of a display figure than something to really play with; you can, but with such limited movement, you'd have to have a lot of imagination.

This figure of Batgirl falls into the rare realm of a female hero who is not hyper-sexualized, barely clothed, or in some way made childish or innocent. She is portrayed as a strong woman, and that's reason enough to get her. Although why she's called Batgirl instead of Batwoman is a mystery worthy of the Caped Crusader.

I just got her in the mail today, shes the perfect size, shes well sculpted, her face is a little bland but my sister manage to do her make up with high lighters and sharpies haha. Overall she's great.
