For the same Halloween party as when I made the Batscanner, I also made Batgirl’s walkie (minus the lace) for the guests who dressed as Yvonne Craig’s Batgirl.
I know lots of folks on here have made them, too. The text was the hardest part. All I had were screenshots, but when viewed/printed life-size, there were gaps from the photo file being too small. So I reconstructed the text by filling in the gaps pixel by pixel.
One photo compares it to the original in the Azarian collection (inset).

Re: Batgirl walkies.
These look great!
I designed and 3d printed one of these and before I could finish was gifted one needing the paint. I need to get back to finishing it and I'm going for the lace too. Question...how did you do the gold labels? Is it black vinyl on reflective gold vinyl? I have a Cricut now but I had tried to do a waterslide decal over gold vinyl and it didn't work / last.
I say add the lace! lol

Re: Batgirl walkies.
Thanks! The labels were just printed on heavy gold card stock, and then carefully laminated and cut.
