She looks great!

I got the costume for molly, but need custom gloves and boots as the set that came with the costume connects to nubs at the ends of the legs and arms. Otherwise she looks great.
Thanks. I used the Robin costume that came with the set-of-four 7" Teen Titans wave (Hawk, Dove, Beast Boy, Robin) I bought from Figures Toy Company, because I already had a 7" First Appearance Robin standing with my other Titans figures. I sliced off the Robin face for Molly to hold as a mask. I think her flesh-coloured tights came from a Supergirl.

Yes indeed, still there: the male Goons sets from FTC repackaged with the Arch Villains replacing the female molls (ie. Joker, Riddler, Penguin, Freeze and both Catwomen).

What a time to be alive, eh?! It's rather magical that these exist at all, let alone getting into the likeness aspect.

I wanted all these items in 1967!

I also remember doing whatever we could to upgrade my little brother's 8" comic book Megos in the 70s to better resemble the TV characters: Tarzan's tights for Robin, darkening Batman's cowl with a blue Texta and creating a different chest logo, adding a yellow lining to Batgirl's cape, crude attempts at customising Mr Freeze, King Tut, Egghead and Mad Hatter...

The GOONs and molls are now available individually, in factory bags:

next step is clothes loose. I am holding out for that since the AJ heads are UGLY and don't fit in with the FTC line very well.
To the Bat-Elephant!!
