The 6'' figures look phenomenal. Makes me wish I collected 6 inch figures. The dolls are an easy pass, but I'm sure kids will love them! Especially with Supergirl's show on CBS starting soon.

Nu52 since Harley's ongoing solo comic. Though really they've been off and on heroes since Batman:TAS.

This has more to do with their own popularity and less to do with representation. Nu52 helped with the solo Harley ongoing, but they've been pretty steadily popular since Batman:TAS had them together. It's great that they are broadening representation by using them, but this instance has a lot to do with high demand for those two outright among their target audience.

Probably also helps that Harley is part of Suicide Squad too.
