That's crazy; I would've...Only 16 episodes? That's crazy; I would've sworn there was more.<br />For me, life was ALL ABOUT Wonder Woman, Isis, and ElectraWoman and DynaGirl! I tried to make li'l costumes for my Barbies, but they were rubbish; now that I know there's action figures for them out there (are there really? You're not playing with an old fangirl's heart?), I MUST hit the Googles and make sure my husband knows what I want for my upcoming birthday.<br /><br />Legendary comic book/cartoon/comedy writer and LONGtime blogger Mark Evanier worked for/with Krofft for many years, and is still good friends with them and Judy Strangis. He recently wrote on his blog about how he actually rescued the EW and DG costumes from the trash heap!:<br /><br />"..Back then, I was dating a lovely lady named Bridget Holloman who worked as a dancer on Krofft shows and other programs, and one day I mentioned to her that the Kroffts’ wardrobe department was throwing out a lot of old outfits that seemed to be no longer needed. She asked me to see if I could snag any that she’d worn…so one day when no one was looking, I slipped over to that part of the building and rooted around in a dumpster. In it, I found a couple items with Bridget’s name on the tags but I also found one each of the old ElectraWoman and Dynagirl costumes. Deidre and Judy believed there were two Dynagirl suits made and three ElectraWoman outfits. Initially, two of each were fashioned — one to wear, one for a backup — but then there was an episode that called for an evil twin of ElectraWoman. That was an easy special effect: They just made an extra costume and had Deidre Hall’s twin sister wear it.<br /><br />I took the ElectraWoman and Dynagirl suits home and for years, they were in my closet. Every so often, I’d show them to friends and complain they didn’t quite fit me. Actually, the ElectraWoman suit fit Bridget perfectly. She was quite a sensation once when she wore it to a Halloween party. Eventually, I gave the Dynagirl suit to Judy. The ElectraWoman suit is now part of a travelling museum of artifacts from children’s television..."<br /><br />It delights me to no end that DynaGirl owns her old costume. :)<br /><br />Your Pal,<br /><br />Storm the Klingon Broad<br /><br /><br /><br />Storm the Klingon Broadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-54066773275322805552013-03-01T21:37:23.447-05:002013-03-01T21:37:23.447-05:00we would debate who we would marry in year 5 - gre...we would debate who we would marry in year 5 - great colour pix! cindy lauper version of theme on utubeKonsumterrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170560484656800416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-40682251879443975432013-03-01T17:02:00.750-05:002013-03-01T17:02:00.750-05:00I had watched Batman every day growing up in Vienn...I had watched Batman every day growing up in Vienna Va. but then moved to San Antonio where they just stopped showing it, so I didn't see the show again till 1989. I only saw movie for the second time or saw the Batgirl equal pay PSA but no show. So I was jonesing so bad that this show was nice reminder of the Caped Crusaders. Plus they where beautiful women.<br /> By the way Judy Strangis is the younger sister of Sam Strangis who was a producer on Batman.<br /> Seen awesome costume recreations at Dragon Con too.<br /><br /> Rory Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-10935468110913114302013-03-01T16:33:30.275-05:002013-03-01T16:33:30.275-05:00Yes, Dyna Girl was my favorite too.

Dyna Girl was far more approachable for a young boy's crush. :)Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04157952529413529997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-66095499074953618342013-03-01T13:57:00.872-05:002013-03-01T13:57:00.872-05:00I was the rare kid at the time who preferred Stran...I was the rare kid at the time who preferred Strangis over Hall.
