Terrific non-TV Toys: Batgirl Multiverse figure by McFarlane Toys, 2020

We're rounding out the year here at the BRBTV collectibles series, Terrific TV Toys and Terrific non-TV Toys. Earlier this month you saw a two-parter on the Playmobil "Scooby-Doo" playsets of  the Mystery Machine and Shaggy and Scooby figure set. Now, we turn our attention (back) to the Backlog of Batgirls, and we're just not done yet! We're trying to be done with this looooooonnnnngggg series, but they've been multiplying since we began. That's a great thing, yes, just a bit tough to get caught up!

This may be the first appearance of McFarlane Toys on the BRBTV series. The brainchild of Todd McFarlane, who made a name for himself in the comic book industry at a young age in the '80s, this toy line has been known by collectors over the years as being highly detailed. McFarlane has taken on quite a few licenses for its toys over the years, beyond the Spawn figures that really caught people's attention. "Game of Thrones," "Harry Potter," to name a couple other biggies. But this year, amid the pandemic, McFarlane released a line of Batman-themed figures in a line called the Multiverse. This Batgirl figure was nabbed at Target as part of that series.

Stay tuned, because we've got great stuff planned for the new year. We've got just one last installment of the Backlog of Batgirls, then there shall be no more Batgirl or Batman on the series for the rest of 2021, as we turn instead to a very diverse assortment of other great collectibles!

Yea, Sean on YouTube said she reminded him of the Catwoman of the '60s "Batman" series. :)
