They really did good job with Supergirl considering it mostly same body parts and yeah Power Girl is something else scale wise but it isn't that big of a problem for me since I don't have that many McFarlane DC toys and she's gonna be standing with her Sisters from DC direct.

Power Girl is my favorite McFarlane figure, but he screwed up the size. She's about a head taller than she should be.

I got my Supergirls today from Gamestop.
She's definitely an upgrade over Helen Slater (Rebirth) Supergirl (who I now see is called Melissa Benoit Supergirl a lot; I just don't see it, sorry). But it's not as big of an upgrade as it should have been. WoT Supergirl has the wired cape (which is great) and the better legs (boots instead of whatever it is that Rebirth is wearing). But the inferior blue and the smirk on her face are negatives. The huge belt is also a turn-off, although that's accurate to the source material.
If I had courage and these figures weren't so rare, I'd try to take them apart and put the smaller belt and still skirt on the WoT Supergirl. I think that would make a better figure.
Incidentally, McFarlane has gotten a lot better at painting in the whites of eyes (as seen in WoT Supergirl and Power Girl). If Helen Slater Supergirl had better eyes, I think that would be a better head sculpt.

I was shocked to find the Jada Toys Street Fighter figures there today, though. They look nice but I don't care personally care about that IP. I was tempted to buy the Fei Long to fudge into my other collections as a random thug, but $30 is just too much for me to buy a figure that I just don't care about.
When the regular Fei Long came out I bought two. One for the SF II display, the other I put in my Bruce Lee display ?

Good Luck finding them at Target and the THREE Walmarts around me Is like they given up on even RESTOCKING McFarlane Toys SMH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got really lucky and found all of the Batpod, Justice Lord Batman, Connor Hawke, Hourman and Page Puncher Supergirl at Target over my lunch. They had 3-4 of each and I grabbed one of each and left the rest for the next guy. They were literally just putting them on the pegs while I was there. They had Kingdom Come Superman also but I had already gotten him.

Something is up with McFarlane preorders too. They are really spotty lately, with some items never showing up on Target or Amazon.
Yeah, the preorders are definitely weird. The new Reign of the Supermen Eradicator randomly popped up on Walmart and then on Amazon a day or two after that. But that was way after the initial preorder date.

It was fine when they let you pre-order them online. I understand the desire to drive foot traffic, but my local Targets rarely choose to stock these or they're sold out the moment they hit the floor because someone buys them all to scalp.
