Description
This Juan Ortiz Plato's Stepchildren Black design comes from Star Trek: The Original Series, the 1966 show NBC cancelled after three seasons and syndication turned into a religion. The budget was tight enough that the transporter exists because the production could not afford to land a starship every week. A shimmering effect made from aluminium powder was cheaper than a landing sequence. Nichelle Nichols planned to quit after the first season until Martin Luther King Jr. told her that a Black woman on the bridge of a starship was worth staying for. She stayed, and spent years afterward recruiting astronauts for NASA, among them Sally Ride and Guion Bluford.
The Gorn suit was so stiff the stuntman could barely move, which is why the Arena fight is so slow. Tribbles were built in a weekend from fake fur and simple motors, and the episode is the most beloved of the run. This one is printed on a black youth hoodie in sizes Youth S through Youth XL. A good pick for anyone who can name the episode from one frame.
