Kelly as Catwoman is Kinda Creepy

Am I the only one a little creeped out by this?

Okay, I acknowledge now, I'm probably being irrational. Especially as I have much much approval for barbie dolls dressed up like superheroes.

But I'm irrationally creeped out by the fact that of ALL the superheroes DC's got to offer, they have Kelly and Tommy dressed like Batman and Catwoman. I guess it's a bit of the prude in me, since well, I tend to think Batman's a little more adult in tone than a lot of the other heroes. I'd be more comfortable seeing the kid dressed like Robin or Superman, but well, it's hardly surprising.

I'm more uneasy about Kelly in the Catwoman costume though. I love Catwoman's current costume, I really do, and I'd love seeing it on an "adult" doll. But there's something about putting Barbie's little sister (Is Kelly the baby? Or Staci? I always get Barbie's family confused) in that costume really gives me the creeps.

I know that's silly, considering most of the heroes dress in skin tight spandex anyway, and it's really dumb that I'd be more comfortable with Kelly in the spandex purple number Selina wore previous, but that's the way I feel. There's something about a zipped up black leather catsuit that seems a lot more...borderline X-rated than mere silly purple spandex. I'm really terribly uncomfortable seeing a child-doll in that costume. (It probably doesn't help my subconscious that to me, anyway, Batman and Catwoman are among the most overtly sexual pair-ups in the DCU.)

I don't know. Irrational as it probably is, I really wish they'd decided to switch them, with Kelly as the Barbara Gordon Batgirl and Barbie as Selina Kyle. This way gives me the creeps.
