I was at a local comic shop this weekend and they had some of the other figures in the Eaglemoss line (the Supergirl figurine comes out September). They were much smaller than I’d imagined, and I would never buy them – not at the $18.95 CAN they were priced at! These things are tiny. I suppose if you had a bunch of them lined up they would look nice. But if you order one of these, be prepared for an itty bitty figurine the size of the DC Universe Infinite Heroes action figures.

I still think the pose is a great one, but I would only consider buying this if the costume were based on Jamal Igle’s design.

[EDITED July 15/09: I've since seen some of these figures up close at a local comic shop, and they are *not* the 7-8 inches I thought they were - I messed up the conversion. They're really freakin' tiny and not that great. Sorry.] Produced by Eaglemoss Publications, a UK company which packages these small figures with a biweekly magazine that’s published in select countries (see Wikipedia). What caught my eye on this figure is the heroic pose – so unusual for Supergirl figures! Too bad they modelled it on the Ian Churchill costume design and not Jamal Igle’s; the ridiculously tiny skirt and way-high crop top kind of ruins an otherwise striking (if tiny) figure.

DC Universe Classics: Power Girl – unannounced wave

This figure was first announced in April at Action Figures Insider. Wikipedia says she will be released in Series Ten (Wal-Mart Exclusives) – date unknown. The DC Universe Classics are larger than the Infinite Heroes and better looking. A proposed “Brick-and-Mortar/Online Exclusive Two-Pack” of Supergirl and Lex Luthor (re-releases) was also announced last fall. The Supergirl will be the all blue costume.
