Oh, man...I wish these weren't exclusives at different stores. I'd rather if they were all available at all the stores. It's not that big a deal, but getting to a Wal-Mart isn't necessarily easy for me to get to. I'll have to beg a friend to pick up Batgirl and Black Canary for me.
Like I said, not a big deal, but a little annoying.

My baby girl turns 1 yr old in June. These will be perfect for her. When she was born I bought her a Harley Quinn Barbie, at a Tuesday Morning, and wanted to get her a Batgirl or Wonder Woman. Unfortunately, I could only find them in the after market for high prices. I'll definitely get her the Batgirl, Supergirl and Wonder Woman. This is awesome news. Guess I'm going to have to track down a Poison Ivy Barbie just to add to the villainesses. Can't have three superheroines against one villainess, now can I.

Mattel is also making a Kelly and Tommy (Barbie's little sister and brother) 2-pack with Kelly as Catwoman and Tommy as Batman. It's adorable, BUT Kelly with a whip is a little disturbing. I've seen pictures of this set from the ToyFair, but have not yet seen them on this site.

I'm undecided on getting these...need to see them in person. If you need any help with the Walmart Batgirl & BC, let me know. There's no TRU around here so if I do decide to get them I may need help with Supergirl.

MH, did you receive my last two PM's?

I will get these for my girls. My kids wanted me to get them some DC Direct figures, but these Barbie figures are more affordable. I won't care if a $35-40 figure gets lost or broken. DC Direct or Tonner figures are another story.

That's sort of a narrow view, don't ya think? They aren't just something for female fans.

Ah, ok. Thanks for being more clear. The original post seemed like a general statement.
