Description

Batgirl Argentina Costume (Plastirama, 1967). A bold burst of 1960s superhero style, this vintage Batgirl costume labeled "Bati Chica" was produced by Plastirama in Argentina in 1967, offering a rare international take on Gotham's beloved heroine. Packaged in its original display box, the costume includes a molded plastic mask and a vibrant blue cape featuring a black bat symbol with the name "Bati Chica" printed inside the emblem. A red plastic strip belt completes the ensemble, reflecting the playful and colorful design sensibilities of the Batman craze that swept the decade. The box displays handling wear along the edges and corners, with corner bends, creasing, surface tears, scratching, and scuffing. There is a tear in the upper left of the cellophane window, with additional surface wear including dust, scratching, and scuffing. The bottom panel's right corner has come unglued, and the center left side panel shows further creasing. A distinctive piece from the peak of Batmania, this Batgirl costume brings vintage charm and international flair to any collection.
