The colors on the Batgirl are really vivid. The purple and yellow just catch the eye.

Give them a chance. The gitd ones are really cool. They light up nicely.

NES Jason is the best-looking, in my opinion, but I think I'm just biased toward that turquoise-and-purple color scheme lol It's such a deliciously early-90s combo.

I'm still waiting for them to really DO something with the 8-Bit style. I think Freddy and Jason and especially the Mega Man variants were a step in the right direction, but Funko seems to have moved away from this style after the online backlash. Which is kind of a shame because if there was ever a style of Pop that the Scott Pilgrim line could've benefited from, it would've been 8-Bit. I would've lived to have seen Scott, Kim, Knives, and Ramona in their video game sprite outfits!

Good points. Those NES Jason and Batman games were memorizing and challenging to pass. I remember spending countless hours trying to figure out each one.

I have yet to own a UV light! I'm sure they'll look even better once I get one! Really need one since I'm getting more and more GITD Pop!s.

Yeah, those lights are a buck on ebay. They are cheap but they get the job done. It's really cool to go to your collectibles and stay charging the glow on all the gitd figures.

I really had a hard time liking a lot of the characters when they came out, but I will say I am a fan of the 8-bit Freddys and I really like the Rampage 3 pack that Walmart had a while back.

None. I really have no desire for any of the 8 Bit Pops. I think some make sense and other have no business being made into 8 Bit characters. I was gifted a 8 bity Freddy Funko and I will keep him since he was a gift but I will more than likely not buy any 8 bit Pops for myself in the future.
