**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

[lovethattink]

Here now.

Went to MK on Friday for the Xmas party but got there early while they were still doing parade filming.

Walked through the tunnel into a garrison of storm troopers and Captain Phasma!!!

I think my son was worried about the empire taking over wdw but I was a little over excited.

Lots of troopers, Vader, Chewie and R2. Unless they shot more SW before we got there I think SW could've been better represented, but walking into MK that day was one of those "Disney Magic" moments!

Can't get my pics to work now but will try to share when I get home.

(Also noticed bathrooms at what will be launch bay are closed too. Fingers crossed for SW bathrooms).

I look forward to seeing your pictures!

Saw this video today

Yes, it started over a trade dispute between the Trade Federation and Arendelle.

Evil Emperor and Sith Lord Darth Embeyay is actually behind the whole thing.

You know of the rebellion against Weasel Town!?

WESELTON!!!

In DL, Hyperspace Mountain has had soft openings for regular guests since Friday. No one has given any spoilers other than to say it is awesome! Missed it by two days; bummer . I've yet to search YouTube.

Anyone in the Chicago area going to the Magnificent Mile Lights Festival Parade on Saturday? WDW is sending a team of characters to the event. My CM friend, GoGo, will be friends with Donald and I'd love to find/have some photos of Donald and Daisy as a keepsake for her. The Ducks should be riding in a carriage. TIA!

I've seen a link to a whole video of the ride but didn't click on it. We're going in Jan and I want to be surprised.

Hi everyone, I was at DHS yesterday to get some pictures for my blog and Launch Bay is very much unchanged (the exterior of it anyways). Talked to Cast members at ST and they have no idea when the new Force Awakens sequence will be up and running for guest even though I told them that several outlets are saying that it starts today, they had no clue. Anyways, I'm going tonight to check it out, also there's a lot of new merchandise at Watto's Grotto and the merchandise people told me they are expecting more, not good for my wallet.
I posted the construction update on my blog, link below if you want to check it out

What times is Ashley Eckstein signing at Watto's Grotto the weekend after Thanksgiving? I swear I took a screen shot and now can't find it.

We have Fast Passes for Star Tours tonight, so here's hoping they do start showing the new sequence. Guess I'll keep reloading this thread all day!

 

[xApril]

I'll be at DHS this Saturday. If they haven't already started showing the sequence beforehand, then I'll report back here.

My wallet has been safe so far. My favorite character is C-3PO and they've made hardly anything featuring him.

After my rant the other day about how we had our first disappointing trip to disney ever, re osborne lights dessert party and hotel issues, I just wanted to make sure I posted that I spoke to someone at Disney today about everything. He was very nice and refunded our party, agreeing it was a waste. He was very understanding and took some notes down. I didn't feel as though I was getting a pre written speech, which I think made the difference. Here is to hoping the magic is back for us in January marathon weekend

I did not bring up SWW since I was already throwing so much out there. Lol. But I am sure they have a back log there. Maybe all of the complaints will get them to really step up the SoTF offerings.

As far as I understand, the changes to Star Tours doesn't come to DHS until December 1.
