Trackless ride vehicle. It has a Ratatouille/Spider-Man ride vehicle feel.

Aesthetically, I just see the vehicle from Dinosaur! with a Star Wars theme instead.

Though I do like Dinosaur, so no complaints.

Thought the same thing. Reminds me a little of star tours.

I do like the droid in the front of each vehicle - hope that is a bit of an active role

Rest is pretty meh

Yeah I'm hoping it's interactive too. Maybe a different droid for each vehicle?

 

[Keels]

So, maybe I'm dumb ... but I see no AT-AT or whatever they're called. I'm guessing they'll be inside a show building?

Yes inside the battle ride show building not outside.

The more I look at the model the more I think that is a lot of work for 2 years since DHS went vertical not that long ago. A real lot of work at WDW's typical pace. Even worse, a real lot of rock work.

 

[Valstew]

If they can pull it off in the time frame they laid out it looks like it could be amazing.
