My 2024 D23 cosplay gallery, part one

Once again, I attended D23 for 2024. This time, my family and I were dressed up as characters from James and the Giant Peach. I was James. I went for a day and a half, due to circumstances beyond my control.

As always, too, I have taken pictures of other people in their costumes, so many that, as usual, I cannot fit them all into one page. This post is from the first day:















That's it for the first day of cosplays. Stay tuned for day two.

Custom ideas for Disney Lorcana cards, part two

Continuing on with my ideas for new Disney Lorcana cards, I thought I would finish up with some of the ideas I have for new cards themed to Mickey Mouse and friends, as I have with the first two cards.

The first card I thought was a second Goofy card. Like the first one, it is based on the old cartoons. In this case, it is based on Aquamania, in which Goofy takes his son out for some waterskiing, only to get caught up in a waterskiing race:

Another card idea I've had is similar to the Donald card idea I had, in that it's also in response to something actually happening. It was revealed that, at this year's D23 Expo, an addition to the game would have Mickey and friends as pirates:


However, Pluto appears to be inexplicably absent. That is something that bugs me about the game: Pluto has had little representation in the game, and that's a shame, as I like Pluto. Anyway, this card idea of mine below tries to rectify that:

Images of the other pirate cards are too rough to give a full idea. Therefore, it is likely that the final Pluto card will need some work (it was really hard to find a picture of Pirate Pluto without bringing up either Pluto in a Halloween costume or the Pluto cartoon Pantry Pirate), but it gives you an idea of what to expect.
