ClaraHOST
The management structure at NASA was rigidly siloed into levels.
ClaraHOST
The level one and level two managers, the men who actually had the ultimate authority to stop the launch, like Arnold Aldrich and Jesse Moore, testified that they never even received the critical warnings from Theokol about the O-Rings.
AdrianHOST
Never even heard them.
ClaraHOST
The mid-level managers at Marshall Level 3 heard the agonizing debate the night before, but they decided the O-Ring concern wasn't significant enough to be brought forward to Level 2.
Dave WestHOST
So that can be my gaggle of Royal Guards that I've always envisioned in my head.
Dave WestHOST
But I'm going to need to find some O-Ring compatible flight stands.
Dave WestHOST
Because I want to have some of them jumping through the air, you know? Right, right.
Dave WestHOST
yeah that's that's something i would actually wouldn't mind having like a smaller shelf that's like just them and maybe like falcon who they're getting ready to eviscerate all right well they're gonna save them from
SteveHOST
Everyone wants these figures.
SteveHOST
In the O-Ring style.
Ben Flying RetroHOST
Like, is there nothing politically strange about them doing that now? Oh, the Russians
SteveHOST
are bad guys again, so no. Dude, I want to talk about all these beautiful vehicles.
AeryxzGUEST
It was the same philosophy for Constellation, where it was the triple mount.
AeryxzGUEST
So you have Gasket, O-Ring, and TopMount, and that's where GasketMount was becoming popular.
AeryxzGUEST
Like I said, timing.
AeryxzGUEST
GasketMount was becoming popular and O-Ring was, I think, just coming out and our implementation of O-Ring was okay.
AeryxzGUEST
I don't see O-Ring being that popular at the moment or just in general, but that happened a lot of design decisions that we didn't foresee, for example.
AeryxzGUEST
This is before hot swaps were becoming popular.
AeryxzGUEST
So now we can't do hot swaps in the constellation because of the O-ring pillars.
AugiePANELIST
I would love to get the actual Ninja Force characters from the 90s re-released like this without real ninja moves.
AugiePANELIST
Like just give me standard O-Ring figures.
AugiePANELIST
No gimmick.
AugiePANELIST
No gimmick and just release them like this.
Christopher McLeodHOST
in the original G.I. Joe vintage Ninja Force.
Christopher McLeodHOST
And I kind of feel like this is something that I could have seen them do in O-Ring fashion, and kind of something I'd love to see Super 7 do, seeing as they're doing loads of cool Ninja Force stuff.
Christopher McLeodHOST
I'm really excited at the thought that they're not doing just the same things.
Christopher McLeodHOST
So we've been seeing recently from Super 7 and Classified this sort of like...
ScottHOST
So you're saying Hasbro and LJN.
JeffHOST
Yeah, I don't see Chono as, maybe I can see him as an O-Ring style figure.
ScottHOST
Yes, I 100% see Chono as an O-Ring figure.
ScottHOST
No doubt.
ScottHOST
Dude, with the jacket and the sunglasses, like that is ready-made Cobra.
Grant FaulknerHOST
And you mentioned the Challenger explosion, which I remember very well as well.
Grant FaulknerHOST
And Truth Lies in O-Rings Inside the Space Shuttle Challenger Disaster by Alan J. McDonald and James R. Hansen covers what happened that day.
Grant FaulknerHOST
And also thinking about Hostage, which just recently came out by Eli Sharabi that recounts the horrific events of October 7th and what happened to him and his family.
Grant FaulknerHOST
And I was looking at other 9-11 books as well.
SteveHOST
character and it's a it's his first appearance
RobHOST
I would be curious to see a child sculpted in an O-Ring figure scale.
RobHOST
That would be interesting.
RobHOST
And I think that would be a great challenge for someone working at Super 7 to create a child O-Ring figure.
PaulHOST
We have seen something close to a child in the Bruder line of figures.
PaulHOST
They lean more towards modern era construction with their characters, but they have got kids in that toy line.
Kyle PetersonHOST
So we'll see what ends up happening with that.
Kyle PetersonHOST
But a lot of stuff going on at all times with KWK, O-Ring, all that.
Kyle PetersonHOST
And they got some big distribution news coming sometime in September.
Kyle PetersonHOST
So I guess we'll see what that all does entail as well.
