DCU Classics Hawkgirl (Mattel)


The DC Universe Classics line was an attempt to bring a wide range of DC characters to retail at the 6" size. The Hawkgirl represented here is Shayara Thal the Silver Age Thanagarian police officer and wife of Katar Hol. The figure has some shortcomings in terms of her spindly arms and constantly looking down because of her hair but otherwise is a great version of the character and in a pinch can be used as Golden Age Hawkgirl Shiera Sanders for complicated continuity reasons I shan't go into here. This is the quintessential Hawkgirl costume, even her animated appearance was based on this design by Joe Kubert. Her wings are different from the previous Hawkgirl figures I've posted about before. More posable than Earth 2 Hawkgirl, not as posable as Legends of Tomorrow Hawkgirl but better at standing poses. She's part of the "Fates Entwined" 2-pack with Gentleman Ghost.
