Classic pieces. Definitely some of DC's best. I kind of regret selling mine.

I agree with B2S and that's why I didn't get her for my collection. IMO, it doesn't fit with how all the others were done. Ditzy says it all.

You've got such a good set!

Also agree about Batgirl, she doesn't fit too well in with the rest of the girls.
I've only got Catwoman, Harley, Canary and now Zatanna. The only other one I'm planning on getting is Poison Ivy to finish the Sirens set.

Power Girl would be nice too but she's selling for about 200+ now on eBay and I feel like I'm better off investing that into the upcoming Sideshow piece.

the new Batgirl was an impulse buy for me and initially i wasn't wild about her, she's grown on me.

Question:
Was there not a Batgirl in this set? That's a glaring omission. {Nice Collection!}

I like Batgirl myself. Maybe a little too cute and comedy, but I think she works with the other characters. The one I can't stand is Supergirl flying through the base. Not only does she lean over time (at least mine did badly) but she sticks out far worse than Batgirl.
