Barbara Gordon remains one of DC Comics most popular characters, and DC certainly knows it. You can tell by the myriad of the statues and action figures on comic store shelves, and there are more being released every year.

While there’s plenty to choose from, a few rise above the pack. Some are rather pricey and some are a bit more affordable, but these are the cream of the crop, and any true Batgirl fan would love to have them as part of their collection.
Hit the next slide to see which statues made the list.
Batgirl fans can catch the character in The LEGO Batman Movie, which currently enjoys a 81.53 ComicBook.com composite ranking. The official description is listed below.
In the irreverent spirit of fun that made The LEGO Movie a worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that ensemble – LEGO Batman – stars in his own big-screen adventure. But there are big changes brewing in Gotham, and if he wants to save the city from The Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up.
Will Arnett reprises his starring role from The LEGO Movie as the voice of LEGO Batman, aka Bruce Wayne. Zach Galifianakis (Hangover films) stars as The Joker; Michael Cera (TV’s Arrested Development) as the orphan Dick Grayson; Rosario Dawson (TV’s Daredevil) as Barbara Gordon; and Ralph Fiennes (Harry Potter films) as Alfred.
The LEGO Batman Movie Is In Theaters Now.
Batgirl Of Burnside DC Collectibles
It would have been easy to pick the Black and White version of this statue, but part of what makes this design so striking is the color, so this version won out.
Not only that, but this statue stands at 12 and a half inches, nearly twice as tall as the Black and White version. The look is lifted straight from Babs Tarr’s design, and you can get her at a reasonable price of around $99.
DC Bombshells Batgirl
The DC Bombshells line has become immensely popular, and Batgirl was one of the first releases.
While the line continues to expand, Batgirl is still a hot commodity among collectors. The statue stands at around 10 and a half inches tall, and includes one of the best sculpts in the line. You can get her for around $99 as well.
Arkham Knight Batgirl Iron Studios
There are a few stellar Arkham Knight Batgirl statues, but Iron Studios’ won out thanks to their stellar post and sculpt.
There’s a great deal of motion in this pose, as Batgirl prepares to throw a Batarang while landing on the ground below. The work done on the cape immediately draws your eye, but Iron Studios did an immense job on the armor detailing as well.
This statue is at 1:10 scale (about 8 inches tall) and retails for around $115. It’s set to ship in May.
1966 Batgirl Tweeterhead
If you were an avid watcher of the 1960’s Batman show, Yvonne Craig most likely made an impression on you. If that’s the case, you’ll definitely want to add this Batgirl statue to your collection.
Tweeterhead did an astounding job with the likeness here, but just mentioning that would sell it short. From the picturesque pose (straight from the series) to the gorgeous paint application on the costume and cape, everything feels directly out of an episode.
Batgirl stands at 13 inches tall and retails for around $250 dollars. It is expected to ship later this month.
Sideshow Collectibles Batgirl Premium Format
Saved the best for last, and ironically also the most expensive. Though to be fair, you can’t put a price on perfection.
While this version of the iconic character isn’t based on one artistic rendition, in particular, that’s what makes it so stunning. The likeness is a fantastic blend of various art styles and likenesses, resulting in a timeless version of the character that can easily fit in with any collection.
The pose is playful, as is her expression, but Sideshow pulled out all the stops in the details, especially in regards to her armor and cape. The statue stands at an impressive 22 inches high and retails for around $400. It’s expensive sure, but it will be the pride and joy of your collection by far.
