Yeah, let's keep the discussion about Mattel getting back the DC license (in 2026) in its own thread, which Toynewman linked above.

Shown below via robdtoys is an in-hand look at the new DC Collector Edition Captain Cold Figure from McFarlane Toys. You can purchase this figure at places like our sponsors BigBadToyStore.com and Entertainment Earth with suggested retail price of $29.99.
I got Power Girl today. I love her. She's the best McFarlane by far.
She's not perfect. Her feet are quite small so she has trouble standing. Her figure isn't quite what it should be. And the cape attachment is bizarre. Still, I never thought he would make this version of the character so I can't be disappointed.
Some pics of her (without the pauldron, which was easy to remove) with my favorite DC Direct version of PG. She's quite tall. That DC Direct figure almost scales with some other McFarlanes (Batgirl, Batwoman, Supergirl, etc.).

I've ordered so many Power Girls, though, I'm bound to get a chase. But in that case, I would probably sell it instead of pilfering the head.
I liked the legs as well. Bare legs on female McFarlane figures often look... not so great around the knees.
Given how quickly PG has sold out for both regular and platinum, hopefully this leads to higher production runs so we can actually get her or whatever other future female figures they announce next. Fingers crossed I can snag her somehow!
