Will Mattel really choose to reissue Supergirl stuff so soon after taking over the license? For another, movie merchandise doesn't always float all boats. What are the chances McFarlane does another comic version of Supergirl while having to release movie versions of her (and we already know how reluctant he is to do female figures to begin with)?
I didn't kill myself to get this Supergirl, but she was a priority. I'm betting she's the only comic version of Supergirl we see until late 2026 at the earliest.
I doubt McFarlane will do much more with her, though if he were smart, he'd get a proper Helen Slater movie Supergirl out there as the movie hype and marketing ramps up, along with a couple of other comic variants, but I'm not holding my breath there given the usual character choice of the line.
The DCU movie doesn't release until June next year which is right when Mattel takes over, so I have to imagine they'll be releasing something to be synergistic with that major movie push, especially being right out of the gate with the license. I could easily see competing movie Supergirls on shelves, but I guess we'll have to wait until Toyfair next year before we get some better indication of that.

When it comes to a major character like Supergirl who's going to get a major merchandise push with her film, it's pretty much a certainty that she'll get done again in whatever collector line Mattel does, so I'm less inclined to bust my boiler over trying to pick this version of her up.

I might still try and get that Supergirl though it looks good, even the silly facial expression.

Pre ordered both of these. Very excited to add them to the shelf. Glad they used that buck for kingdom come Superman!
For those that don't follow McFarlane's social media, the company explained prices will be going up immediately because of the tariffs. That is why Supergirl (and Superman everywhere but EE) was more than $24.99.
Supergirl now sold out completely at EE along with Superman. BBTS and Amazon still have Superman. Amazon also still has Supergirl.
Back up at Amazon. GS is more expensive.

I believe she's also at Gamestop for 29.99.
