I will spare you that awful Aqua song (anyone remember them?)

That's actually a quite nice looking Barbie doll, not that I'll be purchasing it but I may purchase the Funko Pop Supergirl (https://www.amazon.com/Funko-65599/dp/B09V86HPTM/ref=sr_1_1?crid=L18JBCCVYJ9N&keywords=supergirl+pop&qid=1681705779&sprefix=supergirl+pop%2Caps%2C466&sr=8-1) which I quite like.

I've been listening to Aqua just recently (including Barbie Girl), they had some fun Bubblegum Pop Songs and associated videos.

Very interesting Barbie take on the Flash movie Supergirl. Like you, I have the Funko POP version. Nice detailing. Now, if only Funko would do a proper Rock Candy version of it.

Marketing for a major studio film is likely easier than for a TV show. It has much more of an immediate global reach. Also, the fact that the actor portraying the character is Latina is also a nod to that community. Diversity is the name of the game in today's climate.

The CBS/CW version of the character was a harder sell at the time due to the overall social climate (the T##mp / Covid Years) in the United States / globally and the uneven nature of the show in its later years. Had the show stayed the course set in Season 1 and got renewed on CBS rather than picked up by the CW, things might have been different. But, that's pure pipe-dream speculation and falls in the realm of "What If..."

Fret not though, Melissa's version got the Funko treatment as both a POP and Rock Candy (albeit in limited editions). There were also action figures / dolls as well. There was also a very limited edition LEGO version of the Melissa's portrayal (S5 onward) given out at one of the Comic Cons which is a rare collector's item nowadays.

A friend gave me the Rock Candy versions of Melissa’s Supergirl and Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman as Hanukkah presents a few years ago. I don’t have any other figures and don’t really care for Funko Pop’s, the hugely oversized head doesn’t do it for me.

Sasha loves her Barbie Supergirl.

BIG UPDATE, perhaps off post topic, but noteworthy nonetheless:

All I can say is, at least from this Twitter post...it will soon get "Hot" in here.

She is the remaining Kryptonian living on the planet. This powerful being will soon unleash phenomenal power in sixth scale form.

Quotes...a play on words.

Yes, folks, Hot Toys will be making Sasha Calle's Supergirl into one of their famous 12-inch or 1:6 scale figures. They've done so for The Flash and I think Keaton's Batman

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE (6/30/23)...

There are pictures on Twitter of the new 1/6 scale figure.
