As many star Wars fans have bemoaned the new “Star Tours” attraction has not (yet) been announced for Disneyland Paris and will premiere exclusively at Walt Disney World and the Disneyland Resort Anaheim only this spring. Instead, for the time being the original Star Tours will continue to take guest in Discoveryland on what is supposed to be a space trip to Endor – as the attraction has dutefuly since the park opened its doors in 1992. However, Star Wars fans nevertheless have a reason to delight. Not only have Darth Vader and his Storm Troopers as well as Chewbacca returned since last year to the parks (posing for photos and autographs regularly in Discoveryland in the proximity of the Star Tours space port). In addition more and more new Star wars related merchandise is arriving the parks as well
There is a wide range of fun plush such as the Mickey Jedi or Stitch Yoda that has been growing for a while now. A rather new trend is the growing amount of Star Wars lego toys that have been added to the merchandise selection in numerous shops of the resort. In particular the huge shop Les Legendes d‘Hollywood in Studio 1 of the Walt Disney Studios comes to mind where a whole “Star Wars Lego” table has been set up.
