Streaky & Comet Plushies

I found the most adorable Streaky the Wonder Cat plushie on DC Direct tonight. Edit: released Sept 2002

DC calls him Streaky the Super-Cat – perhaps that’s his name on the Krypto cartoon? We all know he’s really Kara’s secret “Wonder Cat”:

There’s also a Comet the Super-Horse plushie, if Streaky isn’t cute enough for you! Edit: also released 2002

  1. Awww :D

    They’re both so pretty! :]

    I think Supergirl needs to get her animal friends back :]

    Why does Superman get his dog back but Supergirl doesn’t get her cat or pony :(

  2. WOW! This is great news! *doing the happy dance*

    I’ve been hoping DC would re-issue Streaky…I saw the plushie at my LCS years ago, but when I remembered to ask about it, it was sold out…:-(

    I’m going to email my store right now and see whether I can get one in time for Christmas…thanks for posting this, Michelle! :-)

  3. Nothing happened to PG’s cat that wasn’t there prior to its appearance in the DCU. If anything, its two-eyededness and general state of healthiness got retconned to a boring state of happy&healthy. Such is the power of Superboy Prime punchhealing power of PG!

  4. Oh! Well isn’t that lovely. Hadn’t seen those early strips. I thought that maybe I’d missed yet another recent dismemberment ;-)

  5. Well, I talked to the owner of my LCS and he said that although it’s on the DC Direct site, there’s no way of knowing how old the posting is. Additionally, when he tried to order it through Diamond, he got a message “out of stock, no re-orders available”.

    He said it’s possible that DC Direct put it up again because it might be in the next Previews catalogue, so I’ll have to wait and see…

  6. there’s no way of knowing how old the posting is

    This is true, there’s some very old stuff on there. I’ve seen these pictures before, but I was sure it was no more than a few months ago, and I thought they were newly announced at the time. Hopefully I will be able to find a release date for it.

  7. If you do find a release date, Michelle, please let us know…and if I find out anything from my LCS, I’ll do the same…

  8. So sorry for getting everyone excited…from what I can find searching online, these have not been re-released. Streaky was released Sept 11, 2002 (according to the Diamond Comics shipping list) and Comet sometime in 2002.

  9. Oh, well…thanks for finding out for us, Michelle…maybe they’ll be re-released someday…

  10. What a coincidence…that ties in to a big update I’ll be announcing tonight ^_^

    Do you have a direct link to the article itself?

    I didn’t care for the “Justice” story, but the figure itself is great to have! 70′s Supergirl is so rare in figures, and that’s really well done. So life-like it’s creepy, in fact. Hard to believe it’s only 6.5 inches.
