I lvoe Tonner dolls, they are absolutely gorgeous, and the Supergirl and Wonder Woman are no exception, but dadgum they are expensive.
The “Believe in the power of PLAY” banner on the website cracks me up. At $150.+ just for a doll, WHO is playing with these?
Well, okay, someone is:

And a warning for the faint of heart: the “bios” of the Tonner original character dolls are…something else. They make the purplest Stan Lee invention seem staid and dry.
Barbie doesn’t have everything–the Tonner girls do.
Very nice doll
