She's probably not allowed to disclose everything she knows, or even hint at anything. If they wanted to drop Batgirl out of nowhere and surprise everyone, even hinting at it would possibly ruin that surprise.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

P.S. Awesome news and a definite day 1 pick up!
To be honest I think product release questions will never be answered. That's the way SS does business. Everything is kept under wraps until the official unveiling. The ask thread is best for everything else regarding stuff that's already been confirmed.

She's probably not allowed to give out certain information.... Given how secretive SS is about what they are doing, asking questions about future characters is rather pointless as they're not going to tell you..


As for the statue, If Batgirls body is sculpted with fabric accessories then it will probably be a instant Pre-order but if it's 100% fabric it will be a pass...

It will be fabric outfit where you will have to fix the armpit sagging

If SS does a great as a job similar to what was done on Harley I would be happy with fabric uniform.

Your daughter is so cute in your avatar pic.


Awww, thanks. We took a really fun Western Outlaws family pic at a costume gallery in Wildwood, NJ, just a couple of weeks ago while on vacation. Goodness, all dressed up, Selina almost looked like a teenager, and not 6 years old!
