Star Wars Galaxy Edge is Adding OT Trilogy Characters to the Land

They are finally allowing Luke, Han, Vader and Leia get to walk around the land starting on April 29th. The Time line is finally dying and allowing more fan favorite characters to be in the land

Cool! I'm glad they're finally doing this. Too bad they can't change the whole land to Tatooine while they're at it.

This to me, is part of where the land went horribly wrong. You either need familiar characters in a new place (original trilogy characters in Batuu) or less familiar characters in a recognizable place (sequel characters in Tatooine).

Honestly, I don't know they didn't split the land into two eras to start with at Disneyland (I know they couldn't at WDW due to Galactic Starcruiser). Did they forget legacy fans exist?

My 6 year old son loves Star Wars. You would think he's into the newer characters. When we visit Galaxy's Edge, his question is where's Darth Vader?

A 6+ year mistake for the ages (since the land opened).

Day late and a dollar short. It should have been geared around the original trilogy to begin with.

lol

Guys if we just complain they are late then Disney will just not try to please fans

This is good, should it be day one? Sure but we have different leaders and they see a way to improve the land and are doing it

Its only good news for me, I support this and will go to the land more

If only they could modify ROTR to also include legacy characters! It's a great ride and has grown on me over time. Still such a missed opportunity to only use new characters!
