While browsing around the web, I found this rumour that they are updating Star Tours right now. At least certain parts. However they are just rumours they provide an interesting read. Original conversation here at Mouseplanet

*** Actually they do and have had plans to update Tours. Word around the starspeeder is that there may be a new safety video coming as well as decorum…there was talk about a new ride film (which in essence would provide a new attraction practically) but it seems as though that was either scrapped or put on hold. The FP for Tours really could be necessary especially with the onset of summer…The powers that be had tested different configurations for it (FP) with what seemed to be different reactions. All I know is that it was a pain to work with…
The only thing that frustrates me is the TRAFFIC into Tomorrowland just after Astro on either side… ugh!

So we will see what they DID do quite soon. Stay tuned!

Daniel Logan, as we all know from playing Young Boba Fett in Attack Of The Clones, is letting us know that he will be one of the guests to open the first Star Wars Weekends of 2005.

When you want to meet the star from Attack Of The Clones, you better be in Orlando, Florida at May 20-22. You can read the confirmation at his website.

Visitors to Disney-MGM Studios in Florida between May 20 and June 12 this year will be treated to a great lineup of special Star Wars Weekends merchandise created exclusively for this eagerly anticipated annual event. In addition to the planned activities, events, and celebrities (as outlined in this story here), guests will have the opportunity to shop for exclusive pins, posters, t-shirts, coins, and other collectibles in the whimsical Disney/Star Wars crossover tradition.

New Star Tours figures at Disneyland. Well not really the droids we are expecting. These are replacement pvc figures from the old vintage droids cartoons ones they were selling last summer.

On a side related note. I’ve got my hands on 2 of the upcoming Star Tours droids. More pictures soon!
