One of the myriad of reasons why Legends of Tomorrow became my favourite DC TV show despite its awful name was the inclusion of the Hawkman/Hawkgirl plot that was rooted in the Golden Age origin of the characters.
Kendra Saunders was a barista in Central City who discovers she is the reincarnation of an Egyptian princess cursed to be reborn endlessly, finding her true love in Hawkman only to die at the hands of their immortal enemy. This plot was the throughline of the first season of Legends and unfortunately the Hawks were not part of the second season. Ordinarily I don't care for dark, drab redesigns of superhero costumes but the bronze and leather armour used here works with the reincarnated ancient warrior schtick they're going for. Plus it gives more variety of tones to the team. Speaking of tones I just noticed that the figure's skin tone seems a bit too light to be a match for actress Ciara Renée which is disappointing DC Collectibles.
