food IS a theme park
Our childhoods are full of happy memories collecting all those cool Disney toys from McDonald’s Happy Meals, and we still get excited when new ones come out!
We’re loving it.
Seeing that little box with a smile on it, too, also brings us much joy, but BRING ON THE TOYS, right? Fortunately, we’ve had some cool ones recently, including Raya and the Last Dragon toys, some…um…unique Marvel toys, and even some dedicated to Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway.
There has been some great news for Star Wars fans today.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World
We got a super exciting look at the rooms inside the upcoming Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser, and now we learned that THREE brand new toys will be making their way to Batuu soon!
We are SO excited about the next season of The Mandalorian releasing on Disney+ on October 30. Now that we’ve seen the AWESOME trailer for Season 2, we’re learning more about the galaxy of new Star Wars merchandise that’s becoming available to celebrate!
Baby Yoda from The Mandalorian
Disney recently announced Mando Mondays, a weekly event where new toys, collectibles, and more will be released for fans. Also, we found a new Baby Yoda shoulder plush at Disney World, and we already can’t wait to bring this little guy to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge during our next visit to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
We’re back at Disneyland Resort, where Galaxy’s Edge has celebrated over a week of welcoming visitors to the planet Batuu. But we’re hanging out in other areas of the Parks (yup, there are other areas that we still know and love)! We’ve got merchandise from Downtown Disney, a few new-ish menu items, and some entertainment updates! Buckle up, it’s time to SOAR into What’s New!!

We’re stepping into the Toydarian Toymaker to explore all the whimsy and wonder of TOYS in Black Spire Outpost in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge!

Sometimes we come across some seriously awesome food-related merch and we just have to share it with you. This time? STAR WARS SPUDS! And by spuds, we mean Mr. Potato Head. Yes.
As I mentioned earlier in the Star Wars snacks post, my family is headed to Walt Disney World soon. One of the main reasons that we are gearing up for a June trip is to attend our second Star Wars Weekends event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Star Wars Weekends
The first time we attended my husband RAN for a picture with a Stormtrooper, leaving his then 8-year old son in his lightspeed-wake. It’s the kind of event that encourages grown adults to recall their youthful summer days having backyard battles with makeshift lightsabers. Are you with me?!
One of my favorite places to browse while my son is on his 9th ride (seriously, I am SO not kidding!) on Star Tours is Tatooine Traders. After two galactic missions IN A ROW, I’m ready for some shopping!
And, luckily, Disney Theme Parks sell exclusive Star Wars Mr. Potato Head figures. This 5-part Limited Edition set makes a great gift for your Star Wars fans! 😉
