Now Todd needs to make Stephanie Brown as Spoiler and(depending on whether or not people are good with the previous versions)a new updated Barbra Gordon Batgirl also from the Batgirls comic, to essentially complete the Batfamily. We already have a new Tim Drake on the way and there's been some recent rumblings of a new Jason Todd in his more current look.

I did exactly what you did with the Batwoman Beyond unmasked figure. However, I took it one step further. Note that the figure came with alternate fist hands (something Cass did not come with). The ball joints on Cass had to be heated but to get them out but once done the result was perfection. Also I um.. bought three of these. One regular, one being my unmasked with alternate fist hands variant, and one in box. When it comes to Cass figures this figure is EXCEPTIONAL. After a LONG reign, my Mattel Batgirl can finally stop being the best Cass there was. The wired cape is a game changer that makes you want it on EVERY Bat figure now.

Glad you liked the figure. Curious though, what price would have made her 5/5?
@5POAFigureReviews
4 ай бұрын
Thank you for the question! You know, in hindsight I think I could have done a much better job of explaining my reasoning. For Price, I don't just look at the actual cost but availability in general. If something is harder to get, then that drives collectors to the aftermarket which is a higher price point after all. This figure is not only an exclusive, but according to my Target they were only getting two of her in stock, making her particularly challenging to get. Combined with some of those reuse choices that made her inaccurate (in other words, how Mcfarlane used their budget), and that's what knocked her down a point. But I would say that 4/5 is still good. Had she either been more accurate, more available, or 20 like most other DC Multiverse figures, and that's what would have tipped the scales. That said, that wired Cape alone is what did a lot of the heavy lifting. A good third party wired cape is usually about $25 alone, so that does add a lot of value. I hope I was able to explain my reasoning!

I don't mind the boot reuse because I think it's kind of cute, but I overall feel like this figure being cast in a solid color was an attempt to "hide" the overall reuse a little. Or at least when you don't have the figure in hand and are looking at it closely, it's not as noticeable. I'll happily take it, her older figures are crazy expensive and I was lucky to find the DC Super Heroes version of her for $60 at my local comic shop last winter. Still a bit pricey but given how she usually sells for over $100 new in the package like that, I was content. Of note - Cass has pretty much always had more of her mother Sandra's features and skin tone, particularly in her 2000's Batgirl run. I get why people are happy with the Batwoman head swap, but as another Asian mixed person that doesn't pass for white/anything else for that matter, personally I'm passing on it and getting a custom head if the urge strikes me. It just doesn't scratch that itch for comic accuracy.

Batgirl's definitely back in an Oracle role int the comics right now, and Cassandra is active as a Bat-family member, so I figure she IS the current Batgirl. I think she's even the one who went out of her way to recruit Harley into the current Birds of Prey.

It really is strange to me how McFarlane seems so scared to combine different elements of reuse. It always seems like they'll either completely reuse a body or make a whole new one, & a lot of figures could benefit from different reuse of multiple other figures.
