Been wanting a Batgirl for a while and this is my favorite interpretation of her.

What do you think? Will she hold at $300 or will she drop to possibly to $150 in the next year or two?

I'd cancel for now and wait to see the prices offered by BBTS and DCBS. I think the MSRP will drop because of the smaller base.

This was originally thought to be 9 inches, but will be 10.88 inches. I am able to offer you the employee price of 199.99.

Did you wish to keep the order or proceed with the cancellation?

That's a pricey 1.88 inches.

Yeah, and the fact that the base was shrunk what looks to be a good 40% or more makes it a bit hard to swallow the change justifying a tripling of the price.

Got the same offer of $200 as well. Not going to take it though.

Leaning that way as well. If I had Wonder Woman, Cat Woman, or Harley it would be easier to justify the cost. By herself though she was already going to look out of place on my shelf with that motorcycle.

Still going to get Supergirl as I love the pose and the display of strength fits with her powers outside of the whole "garage/biker" theme.

Yup, I agree, Supergirl is the best looking statue of that line, and it can easily blend into any collection of DC statues without needing another from the same line.

I have Wonder Woman and Harley with the sidecar. Was never interested in Catwoman though. Choppers are not the style of motorcycle I like. Batgirl is actually on a motorcycle more similar to mine than the others. I have not replied with no yet. Might see if I can talk them down a bit more. Meet in the middle at $175.

BBTS has her up for preorder now. $299

I slept on it and ultimately decided to cancel begrudgingly on her. I'm guessing will likely never own her, but told myself a while ago had to know when to walk away on pieces.
