O-ring reissues: Who do you want? What to tweak?

Spirit, just like the original, not sanitized like the Classified version. In better plastic, cause man is it bad.

Beachhead
Quick Kick
Flint
Cobra Eel
V2 Snake Eyes w/Timber

Could be persuaded to buy Destro & Baroness.

My original V1 Crimson Twins are still in good shape.

I hope they go the Star Wars Retro route (the only Star Wars toys I buy), and mix rereleases with new sculpts/repaints.

Rerelease I would like
Cobra-La Royal Guards (single card or two pack to troop build)
BATS '86
Crimson Guard '85
Ninja Viper
Star Duster
Night Force

Repaints
Cobra Commander and Flash '97 prototypes
Nano-BAT
Cobra Divers
Cobra Air Troops

New - anyone, including
Dr. Venom
Pythona
Jungle Kwinn
Misty Knight...

I just want them to sell these new supposedly unbreakable O-rings in packs to us.

Have plenty of Joes that need that repair, as I'm sure many do. So it just makes sense to also offer packs of rings as a Pulse exclusive.

I definitely want to see them re-release a 2 pack of BATs. Those are pretty amazing still.

I would like to see better heads/faces. I've liked the porcelain doll face look.

They said food grade silicone and Amazon has food grade silicone o-rings.

It would be good for them to sell official replacement parts, but I doubt they'd risk suggesting their stuff breaks.

I bought these and put them in a bit more than a year ago and so far still tight:

111 Silicone O-Ring, 70A Durometer, Red, 7/16" ID, 5/8" OD, 3/32" Width (Pack of 100)

When I tried a hardware store black o-ring without finding actual recommended specs on a diff line's figure, it broke in about a year. It was kinda hard and dried out too.
