Can someone let me know what the Hyperspace Hoopla and the Padawan Mind Challenge is? Are they mainly for the young kids or adults. Going with DH and DS who is 20 so not sure if they'd be interested.

Can someone let me know what the Hyperspace Hoopla and the Padawan Mind Challenge is? Are they mainly for the young kids or adults. Going with DH and DS who is 20 so not sure if they'd be interested.

Padawan Mind Challenge is a trivia game for kids, I think it's 4 to 12 years old. You sign the kids up in the morning by Sounds Dangerous. They go on stage and are given questions from very easy to hard and they get "eliminated" until maybe 2 or three are left, then they bring them all back for an "all or nothing" question which is very easy and everyone wins!!
Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1fdMYqiV44

Hyperspace Hoopla is the end of the day celebration. SW characters come on stage and dance to popular music...it's the most fun ever, although a lot of the SW purist will never watch it (They hate to see Darth Vader out of character and dancing ) It starts at 8pm and last 30 minutes and it's very, very popular. Geared for everyone. Here's a video

[Meech Loves Mickey]

We may try to catch the Hyperspace Hoopla on the 24th. We will definitely be there bright and early on the 25th! Depending on how tired and/or cranky my kids are, we may try to go on Sunday the 26th. We just have to see how everybody feels that day.

[Zooshoveller]

How much is Build A Droid?

 

[danabee611]

Does anyone know what time the phone lines will open to make reservations for the carbon freeze me?

 

[yulilin3]

If I remember correctly the build a droid is around $14 each.
I would call at 9am or the day before to check at what time out opens... I'm expecting that the Disney parks blog will have a post about it by Monday

I did it at Tatooine Traders a couple of months ago and I want to say to build one it was $12-13 or so, and two was $20 or so. Since neither of us is sure, I'll just say it's somewhere around there.

 

[lovethattink]

Droids are $12.95 & $19.95. Light sabers r $21.95 & $24.95.

 

[kmcdougan]

Hyperspace Hoopla ....it's the most fun ever, although a lot of the SW purist will never watch it (They hate to see Darth Vader out of character and dancing )

Obviously, they don't know the guys who dress as Vader here in NOLA. Our Vaders have a blast and get silly for the kids from time to time.

We will be there Friday and maybe Sunday the first weekend.

this reminded me of something...last year a mom got upset because her young daughter or son went to meet Darth Vader and put his/hers hand up to give him a high five and Vader didn't do it...please keep in mind the "Dark" side character stay in character when meeting and greeting...no high fives, hugs or other showings of affection from them...Aurra Sing really scares the beejeezus out of little kids (and some adults), if she sees that a little one starts getting flustered/scared/cries she'll back away but she will never smile. So keep that in mind when you go meet them
