None of the merch looks all that great so far.
The lightsaber looks plastic. For $200, I would expect metal. The droid is hilarious and a great theme park fan gift, but it doesn’t move at all! I’m not expecting much movement, but it has to have a motor in it somewhere.
This is what I get for skimming the video. Thanks!Watch the vid again. It had multiple axises of movement.
I will complain about them overpricing the lightsaber (as that does look hella cheap), as it really does look cheap.
The droids are going to be knockouts though, I am going to bet on that.
Well, read the first review from a CM/guest on SR. Short answer, Star Tours on steroids. Long answer, very detailed and very cool recreation of the Falcon and enough randomness in the ride experience to drive rerideability. One interesting note, which I have not heard before, is an Autopilot button to forgo having to participate in the interactive function and just enjoy the ride experience.
Rerideability for a ride that will have 2-3 hour waits for years is rather meaningless to most.
Here is another lightsaber video....I still think $200 is way too much. I’d prefer a droid instead.
