May the Fourth Be With You! - Star Wars Trading Post!

Today is Star Wars Day dubbed May the Fourth Be With You! This is a special Star Wars Day with Carrie Fisher finally recieving her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.  Her daughter, Billie Lourd in a Princess Leia dress, Mark Hamill, and familiar droids were there. Hamill mentioned that Fisher should get her star during his ceremony in 2018. Streaming on Disney+ is The Simpsons short, Rogue: Not Quite One, Young Jedi Adventures, and season two of Star Wars: Visions. It is always fun to make a visit to the Star Wars: Trading Post at Downtown Disney. Today, there was a Young Jedi Adventures photo op, it should be there for some time. By the way, next to it, is the photo op of the Disney100 Mickey Mouse statue like the D23 exclusive! There is a pre-release of the Dok Ondar Black Series figure from Galaxy’s Edge, $44.99, it is available on June 28th. For the Star Wars: The High Republic novel series, the latest is Path of Vengeance by Cavan Scott. At the Trading Post, I picked up the May the Fourth Be With You pin, $17.99, this one featured Greedo peeking over it, and sparkly letters on the logo. I saw the May the 4th Be With You 2023 blue-green shirt with cartoon aliens and the droids and a baseball cap, $29.99.

I also saw the Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary pin with Boba Fett rocketing away from Jabba’s skiff, $17.99; available at shop Disney. I did not see the yellow Jabba the Hutt Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary t-shirt, $34.99, check at Trading Post, the parks, or World of Disney. I also didn’t see Grogu Gummies, the frogs he munches on in gummi form with marshmellow bottoms, $6.99. They should not be rare and found at the parks or World of Disney. Nubs is the bluish teddy bear-like Pooba Youngling in Young Jedi Adventures. There was a number of Nubs 9 3/4” plushies, $22.99, Nubs and Young Jedi shirts for kids $22.99, and Young Jedi Adventures Tumbler, $14.99, all at shop Disney. I noticed at shop Disney the exclusive Galactic Starcruiser Merch isn’t so exclusive anymore. I saw a Retro Collection box of classic figures; C-3PO, R2-D2, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Death Squad Commander (?), Jawa, and Tusken Raider. $89.99! New for me was seeing lil’ stuffies of Vi Moradi who was wandering around Galaxy’s Edge. Is there a Vi Moradi action figure? C’mon, Hasbro! Dok Ondar is good, but he is not walking around Black Spire Outpost! The Trading Post was busy today, I asked a cast member, and she said there were more guests especially for May The Fourth Be With You! I hope everyone had a great Star Wars Day!
