Since Star Wars Celebration V is in Orlando you would have to expect some cool Star Tours exclusives. The folks at Disney Theme Park Merchandise were kind enough to pass along some info and images of some of the exclusives they will have available at Celebration.
Be sure to catch the Disney Parks Toy Collectors Panel, currently scheduled on Friday, Aug 13 from 12-1pm. Where you can hear more about Disney Parks exclusive toys. Located at the Behind-The-Scenes Stage with Pablo Hidalgo (W414 ABCD).
Check out this awesome article in the OCRegister. Former Imagineer Mark Eades looks back at the original Star Tours that he helped create.
