Point is, you can't say they are based on Superheroes because we don't know that for sure. We can guess. But they could have based them on old Flash Gordon serials or old 1950's Sci-fi or maybe they just came up with the same look without inspiration and it matches an existing superhero costume. We just don't know unless someone confirms it. If you want, you can use Twitter to ask them if it's true or not if it's that much of a deal for you, but ultimately, the possible inspiration for the look of the birds is not a piece of high-level information. If you can get it confirmed, maybe create a trivia heading and add it there.
