"Why should I let myself be used for the profits of others?"
—Booster Gold, Booster Gold #16, 1987

The chronological adventures of Booster Gold have been depicted exclusively in comic book form, however the character has escaped the 4-color pages of comic books to appear in a variety of other media. Surely this would make Booster quite proud.

Justice League Unlimited: Series 2 (2004)

Booster Gold was released as part of the second series as both an individual figure (with Skeets) and as part of a 3-pack with Superman and Martian Manhunter. Booster's JLU figure deviates greatly in costume design (inexplicably colored metallic gold and black) both from his comic book and his television appearances.

Accessories in the 2-pack include Skeets and Beetle's BB gun.
