    After months of speculation, next year's Super Sentai series will be Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger (宇宙戦隊キュウレンジャー). As the title implies, the series will use a space motif like Choushinsei Flashman (1986) and Denji Sentai Megaranger (1997), but with an animal motif to reflect the constellations. So far, the costume designs are a huge improvement over the last three series. Could this finally be Super Sentai's first step forward since 2011's Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger?

    I really don't see anyone replacing Idina as Elsa, as she really made the role her own. Demi Lovato is too pop-oriented for the role.

    If anything, maybe Disney should consider May J. Sure, she's Japanese, but she sings and speaks perfect English.

    I remember seeing the UNT Spacy on the old 1.0 (or 1.5, I forget) RX-78-2. When did they transition to EFSF and why? I realize I never really gave it much thought when I started seeing EFSF more often than UNT Spacy.

    Also, isn't the GM Custom already a Katoki design? Which would render the naming scheme a bit moot? I know I said this not too long ago when we were talking about some other Ver Ka mention, but it seems more appropriate to name any new tooling a 2.0 rather than Ver Ka.

    The UC canon transitioned from U.N.T. Spacy to EFSF when the PG RX-78-2 Gundam was released in 1998. AFAIK, there isn't an official reason for the name change, but it's probably to avoid confusion with the U.N. Spacy of Macross. At the same time, the UC canon phased out "Duchy of Zeon" and "Zeon Dukedom" in favor of the now common "Principality of Zeon" moniker.

    Yes, the GM Custom was Katoki's design, so a new version of the kit would be more fitting to have the Ver.Ka moniker on it.
