Watching the frontflap work to keep control in the lower atmosphere, lit by something burning out of frame, after seeing a third of it evaporate and get blown off by hypersonic plasma. Beats the supersonic flips flight 1 gave us as the most metal thing I've seen a rocket do
Looked convincing at first, but it felt too clean- Then at 7 seconds in, you can watch a white panel clip straight through the door and windshield lol
Felix is the first and oldest, created pretty much on a whim. The classic self insert OC, the only really unique feature is the whole "transistorized brain in a body made of printed microbots" thing, which lets him look organic without being organic.
Blunt was designed specifically to be robust, capable, and fun. He occupies a sweet spot where he's large enough to move heavy things around and has wings big enough to actually fly, but he can still fit inside and use most "normal" infrastructure.
For Toste, well- I was watching somebody else's demoness OC cook a hotdog with their lady parts and my brain instinctively said "I could do WAY better than that with a nuclear reactor". So I then set about figuring out how small you can feasibly make a nuclear power plant that actually goes critical (an RTG is NOT enough), and shoved that into a body that could handle the waste heat, put the power made to use, and look good doing it.
