I liked the last guardians of the galaxy as well as the Deadpool one. I liked the last Spider-Man movie on first watch, but rewatching it was a horrible mistake

The only recent MCU movie I thoroughly enjoyed has been Deadpool and Wolverine.

I'd say: go for a high-contrast scheme like black/white/ gold. Maybe use this as inspiration for the color scheme:

Ordered another Tamashii Nations Store VF-1J Hikaru without having to pay for travel. I'll open this one to go with my VF-1A TV Max and leave the GBP on the first release VF-1J Hikaru. Hopefully someday Vermillion Squadron can be completed.

The DX VF-25F Armored is just about the only thing missing from collection, so the VF100 continues to fill the gap. Will Bandai do a Revival version? But I'm not enthusiastic of another full fat bundle release - just standalone armor would be great.

Since there are no examples of their not having F'd up or severely diminished IPs/studios they've acquired, some immediately, others after a few outings, and even their own legacy stuff (Snow White being their latest abomination) gets plundered, I'd posit that it's much closer to always than usually. Disney is a content singularity. It consumes everything it can in order to grow and, in the process, shreds everything it eats into unrecognizable particles.

The first of the three really wasn’t bad, just kinda been there. The other two were jumbled messes and changing creative heads and scrapping plans for each film was a recipe for disaster

Unfortunately that’s what they usually do

I don’t know, just one of those I’ve never had to use.

Watched it on D+ and while not terrible its still not the kind of movie we'd pay money to see in a theater which sums up almost all the post-Avengers films imho. Disney really should look at at other property to buy to create new media with and hopefully not f up.

Is the VF-31A Kairos (all grey one) scheduled in this line up? I've read there's 5 planned so far...

They lost faith after TFA made $2 billion at the box office? That makes no sense. Neither Disney nor Lucasfilm decided on a story direction change after TFA. Rian Johnson did, and he was given the creative freedom to do so. And the Carrie Fisher died, and the plans for the third film got turned upside down.

When the mistake has gotten to the point that a whole episode that would not make sense without the mistake has been made around it, it kind of stops being a mistake and has to start being counted as "real" - or a Munchhausen tale, which given the episode's relevance to the whole plot of the show, unravels Macross 7 as a credible source. You are looking at the length and widths of ships that are almost perfect boxes (by design, in order to maximize the internal volume usable to store aircraft), to justify that a ship where the usable volume where any hangar would be located, in the front two thirds of the ship, is an almost a perfect rhomboid pyramid with one sixth of the box volume - has enough volume to be a carrier. I *know* carriers. I build models of carriers. In the background, the first carrier model I had on hand that is around the right size - a model of the cancelled Soviet carrier Ulyanovsk that I made a couple of months ago. Notice first of all that it is mostly a box, with a pointy front end (below the flight deck). The hangar is about two thirds the length of the ship, stretching *all* the way back to the stern, and up to just in front of where the forward elevator is. It's not the most efficient carrier, it could have had a longer hangar, but Soviets would be Soviets and decided on a huge missile battery instead of more hangar space. Despite being so large and so boxy, the planned hangar capacity was 22 VF-sized fixed wing aircraft and 12 (relatively tiny) helicopters. The rest of the air wing would sit on the deck or be aloft. Juan Carlos, which I have drawings of, is even more of a box, with even more of its length devoted to a full width hangar. By contrast, in the foreground is the game model of the standard Northampton, at the official size of 252.5 meters. Now, there is room for a box capable of containing a handful of aircraft in there. But what is critically missing is any way of getting those aircraft out. The gill intake is not big enough for any VF - maybe an AIF-7S Ghost, but nothing larger, not even a VF-1. You could, possibly, add ARMD-style launch ports - big rectangular ones - but capacity will be very limited by the shape of the hull - it tapers in every direction, quite sharply, and is nowhere near as voluminous, especially for things that would like a flat deck to sit on, as you'd think. Maybe the black voids in the back of the arrowhead shape are holes into a hangar volume. But that's still not going to be a very large volume and not one animation source uses them as such. As for the FANKY illustration, I believe you are misremembering it, because I have it in front of me. The top half of the illustration was FANKY's own carrier conversion of the Northampton, where the artist did whatever it took to squeeze in the 37 participants of Operation Stargazer into a 250 meter, roughly Northampton shaped hull. And I say "roughly" because the result was wider in the whole middle section, considerably taller, and used three whole triple-height decks as a hangar, and *still* didn't launch the fighters like the Stargazer. And the bottom half of the FANKY drawing in question shows how they estimated thirteen VF-25s in the hangar of the ARMD-L, by assuming the hangar was nearly as wide as the flight deck to a depth of three decks (it's not, the hull narrows much more rapidly below the flight deck than FANKY account for); and puts the "humanoid maintenance hangar" in the back of the ship... where the actual ARMD-L has a huge void because that's where the arm and hand of the Macross Quarter goes. I stand by my conclusion: Either the Chronicle is wrong, and the ships are larger. By the "newest depiction is more accurate" rule, I can go as far as to posit that the Stargazer was *actually* a Gefion-type, that the fighters launched like they do in Macross 30 (because it makes the most sense in hindsight), and that all other depictions are the animation errors because none of those are plot-relevant. Or the Chronicle is correct on the size, which means that there can't be a carrier version of the Northampton (since neither animated version has enough volume for what we see launch off of them canonically, and we have to write off Macross 7 and Macross 30 as The tales of Baron Munchhausen. Or, the Chronicle is correct on the size, but neither the Gefion nor the Stargazer were actually Northamptons, but were instead actually Guantamamo-class carriers (which would be more appropriate anyway). Edit: I have made some measurements, and come to the conclusion that purely volume-wise, I can fit a hangar sized for about a dozen fighters in the hull of a Northampton 2059, with enough height to lift them out over each other. But the ship would need ARMD-like launch ports in the sides of the hull right around where the "gills" are. This is *not* what we see in Operation Stargazer or in Macross 30, but it's the closest I can get to a 250 meter ship with the Northampton hull profile and a hangar.

Arii 1/100 CF VF-1A Battroid.

I'd probably buy Boulder as that character was voiced by a friend of mine.

I need a Black Series Supervisor Heert in tactical gear to go with my K-2SO.
