DC UNIVERSE CLASSIC HAWKMAN

When archaeologist Carter Hall recalls his past life as an Egyptian Prince, he also noticed that his former arch enemy priest Hath-Seth was also reincarnated in this life time. Carter uses the Nth metal to give him the ability to fly as well as giving him super strength among other abilities. The belt, harness, wings and boots all contain the Nth metal which Carter controls using his mind. So why the Hawk costume? Carter Hall fashioned himself as the avatar of the Egyptian God Horus which is a Hawk, thus becoming Hawkman. I think that’s enough introductions for the character now on to the toy.

DCUC wave 6 Hawkman
 
Full view of Carter's Nth metal wings.
The wings are what made me buy the figure. It has nice detail and articulation as well.
 
Well made head sculpt of Hawkman.
 
Hawkman came with a lot of accessories for a DCUC figure.
He carried his trusty mace and shield.
 
He also carried a sword as a secondary weapon.
