1967 TV Batgirl Action Figure! The Making of a Custom Card! DC Comics!

As with my custom 1966 "Screen-Test Batman" custom packaging (see it here), I just had to create some dynamic backing for Funko's very nice Batgirl companion figure, from the same "BATMAN '66" line! Click below to enlarge images!

Above: Upon finding a wonderful (and vertical) pic of
actress Yvonne Craig as Batgirl, I next used
Photoshop to revise and rework the image, to
match the feel of the Batman custom packaging!






Above: I also added the logos and such from
the toy line, also leaving ample amounts of
unadorned areas behind the figure, to
bring further emphasis to it!





Above: Once the figure and blister were
removed from the original card, it was
carefully glued down onto the new
backing, ready for display!
