Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to pick up on the things you REALLY want. Like this new book from ABRAMS, INDUSTRIAL LIGHT & MAGIC: THE ART OF INNOVATION by Pamela Glintenkamp. Within, you’ll find a behind-the-scenes look at many of the art and effects that went into the last sixteen years at ILM.

A duo of Stormtroopers have been having some extra curricular fun in Tomorrowland these days in between showings of the Jedi Training Academy. Our Bothan spies tell us that this pair of Stormtroopers (who aren’t at their post) visit with Disneyland guests, pose for photos, and even have some fun with the poor souls waiting in the over-flow queue area of Star Tours.
Click ahead to see more photos of this activity and go ahead and see them for yourselves! If you do see them, feel free to comment on your experience below.

The Star Wars Universe and The Muppets have always had on-screen pairings, from appearances in The Muppet Show to Sesame Street all the way to the animated series Muppet Babies. Here at last, the Disney Theme Parks Merchandise Team have created four sets of your favorite Muppet characters playing in the Star Wars Galaxy.
There’s a new Tee available at Disneyland that doesn’t just make reference to the classic PeopleMover attraction, it’s actually there in plain sight! “Paging Mr. Tom Morrow!” with the classic vehicles and a look at the city of Tomorrow can now be bought at the Emporium at Disneyland.
Isn’t it great when when the folks in Merchandise make stuff that we actually want? Go out and get yours now!
Since 1987, fans of Disney’s popular STAR TOURS attraction have clamored for a full sized STARSPEEDER for their Hasbro figure’s travel needs.

(other figures sold separately)
