But this goes back to that age old "toy maker" ignorance of claims that boys don't buy girl figures. Which yes, they do. They sell. They always sell. They sell out even every time. So where this thought comes from in itself is baffling.

Whether it's wonder woman or Marvel. Figures of women have always been the rarest to come by even when not short packed in cases. You can see figres of Joker flooding pegs, and Black Mask or two face. But not once have I seen a Harley Quinn in the wild and it was still there the next day. Or Catwoman for that matter. Or really any Marvel heroine in the 4'' scale either.

General Zod can flood the peg and not move, but Batgirl would have sold. A case of her alone probably could have saved the line's sales. But heck, a case with her, Arkham Catwoman, and Harley probably would have been a best seller too.

I don't know if it's because of retailers not wanting it, or Mattel messing up, but the amount of profits missed out on because of that ignorance is baffling in itself.
I would've bought one on site. Not to mention a Poison Ivy. I would've loved to get a figure of her too.

And yeah I'd say all of that's true. I never saw either Catwoman in a store and only saw Harley once.
