^ Now THAT was an old figure, lol !
Back in the spring of '06 (I remember it was '06 because I was obsessively searching for Toy Biz's X-Men Classics line) I swung by a Wal-Mart that had recently been renovated, and I found the Batgirl w/ motorcycle set from Kenner's '97 Batman and Robin line.
I almost bought it, just out of shock, and for the sake of novelty, but then immediately remembered how awful the movie and accompanying toy line were
EDIT :
Wow, now I'm really starting to feel old, as I think about those "lost" figures !
When I saw that Batgirl, which was about 9 years old at the time, it felt like I was finding an antiquated figure from eons long past.
However, that Supergirl came out about 10 (!!!) years ago, and as I was thinking about when I originally bought that figure, I honestly can not believe that that was nearly an entire decade ago ! It seems like it was just yesterday ! I can even remember where and when I bought each of the other figures from that series, and it certainly doesn't feel as if a decade has passed since then !
Damn, I feel old, lol ...
