Here is my bet on a Mattel Retro Action Hawkman

[Boywonder0]

Really... I just got the Retro Action Martian Manhunter and the more I look him, the more convinced I am that the Hawkman is knocking at the door. Think about it... The wings can come from the DC Universe Classics Hawkman figure. What do you think?

Yes, the Justice League is coming together nicely. Take the Martian's shoulder straps and belt,done in yellow, with red trunks. I didn't notice that, until I read your post- then it just jumped out at me! LOL

Lets hope.

Fingers (and wings) crossed.

i think all you need to do is look at the venture bros the monarch and henchmen for the know-how. whether or not they go this route is anybody's guess.

With the success of the Justice League cartoon, if anything happens of the sort you will most likely being seeing a Hawkgirl before you'll see Hawkman.

Those things made a lovely Blue Beetle (I posted it in the Finished Customs area) it was almost perfect after I added the blue saphire paint.

Never been a fan of Hawkman, but he'd be an obvious choice for the near future.

I would like Hawkman and Hawkgirl.

I hope they make them both so it will be easy to make a Vultan from Flash Gordon!!!

I don't see Hawkman being an easy figure to make for the retro line. Should his bare chest include a cloth flesh colored sweater? Should his wings be cloth like Falcon or plastic? How do the wings fit in the bubble package? I'm sure the dudes at EMCE can figure out what's best and surley deliver an awesome figure, but I think some serious obstacles to consider will come first. That said, I'm surprised we hadn't seen him already.

My recommend would be flesh shirt connected to his leggings,
w/the Martian Manhunter thingy over the chest.

I'd also recommend making the wings as small and thin as possible
with bendable wire imbedded inside to pose the wings however needed...
I doubt that's how they'll make them... but that's how I'd do it...
if until someone told me it wasn't cost effective, I mean!

AFAIC, Hawkman is the number one figure to be added to the line.

Hey Trappy,..just thought what you can use to make the chest/back armour for Vultan,..a Mego Penguins torso, split in half,..and carving the details over it like the one in the movie,....what do you think?

OK, NOW you're talkin' my language!!!

I hope they give people the option as they did with Martian Manhunter to have Hawkman with or without a skinned suit. I prefer he has a REAL chest showing through. I hate skinned outfits. Why make a toy of the 2000's look like cheap junk? Mego didn't have a lot of options back in the early 70's but Mattel sure does. There is no reason for Hawkman to have a skinned outfit. Kids today would just laugh at that and not even want one.
