If anybody would like to submit something this is your 24 hour notice to do soThe DIY Holiday Challenge:
An Imagineering 12 Days of Christmas Holiday Special
Calling all holly and jolly imagineers! Due to unforeseen circumstances Imagineering 12 Days of Christmas will not be concluded on schedule as I will not be able to post the twelfth gift in the advent calendar on time. So what does this mean? I still would like to aim for some holiday cheer everyday, and what better way than to open it up to the community with a fun little challenge!
The challenge is for you to create a new holiday offering of your choosing.
This can be for any theme park in the world or if you would like a new classic holiday film/tv special! It can be as lengthy or as concise as you would like. With images, videos, or any form of media you would like to accompany your post. At the end of the day I just want everyone to have fun with it
Due on December 22nd at 11:59 PM. Hopefully by the 23rd I will be available to not only post the twelfth project, but also review any projects that you guys post here
Either way happy holidays everybody
Disregard this my computer has broken and my family isn’t in a financially stable to get something right now done. So if you’re going to do a holiday project you have until the 31st to get something submitted.If anybody would like to submit something this is your 24 hour notice to do so
So the 12 Days traditionally run from Christmas to Epiphany on January 6th. I thought it would be good to provide one more set of ideas curtesy of DSNY Newscast:

It’s coming, the file is on my laptop which is broken but is hopefully getting fixed soon.It’s January now. I guess we may never know what the twelfth day truly is...
Did it ever get fixed yet? I did like all eleven prior days, especially the GE one.It’s coming, the file is on my laptop which is broken but is hopefully getting fixed soon.
And trust me I’m super disappointed about it as I really loved the concept and was bummed when my laptop broke on me, but such is life.
Sorry yes it did, with Sorcerers, relationships, and school ive been caught up.Did it ever get fixed yet? I did like all eleven prior days, especially the GE one.
Now do St Patricks Day overlays. Be done in June?
A little late, but well worth thr wait! Loved this project!Star Wars: Millennium Falcon - Life Day Rush
From the November 1st to January 6th, at both Galaxy Edges, Smugglers Run will overnight become Life Day Rush. This attractions sees Ohnaka Transport Solutions smuggling Chewbacca along with Life Day orbs off of Batuu, and into Kashyyyk in time for Life Day. However the war on Life Day is well underway with the First Order as they set up blockades surrounding major Life Day destinations and points of importance to the holiday. Will the newly recruited crew of the Millennium Falcon, led by Hondo Ohnaka, be able to help save Life Day? Or will the First Order be able to destroy all celebrations of the archaic holiday, and thus quell the hope that the holiday brings to the galaxy every year?
Queue Audio Changes
Audio changes will be the only the thing to occur during this overlay due to the First Order's war on Life Day. Hondo has decided to limit the amount of attention that his business draws by simply not dealing with decorating, and thus following the First Order's rules. However just because Hondo refrained from putting up decorations doesn't mean the queue is the same as usual.
Throughout the queue two workers for Ohnaka Transport Solutions will communicate between each other over the building's intercom, and they will have new lines to match the ride's new seasonal overlay. Also in the queue are various radios, and these radios will now be playing instrumental versions of songs featured in the Holiday Special and from the holiday Star Wars album Christmas in the Stars.
Ohnaka Worker Lines
As mentioned above the workers on the intercoms will have new lines of dialogues, and these are just a few of these expected lines. The workers have been given the names Jim and Oliver for simplicity as I can't seem to find their canon names anywhere. When there's an empty line between each conversation it typically denotes 5 to 7 minute pause.
Jim: Hey there's a ship parked in Hondo's spot!
Oliver: Well have you reported it for impoundment?
Jim: You bet! I'm just surprised that hunk of junk could even make it to Batuu!
Oliver: Did you say hunk of junk?
Jim: Yeah it's a Corellian light frighter, pre Republic too!
Oliver: That's the Millennium Falcon! Do you know how much Hondo paid just to get it on loan for the wookie!
Jim: Do I unreport the report of impoundment?
Oliver: You better!
Jim: I'll get right on it!
Oliver: I'm working with a total laser brain.
Jim: Have you noticed an increase amount of fur?
Oliver: It's probably Hondo's mother visiting for Life Day, rumor is she's part Bantha
Jim: I don't think so I could've sworn I saw a wookie?
Oliver: Wookies don't even live on Batuu.
Jim: Well Hondo's mom isn't part Bantha either!
Hondo: Ehh my mother is what now?
Oliver: Oh Hondo, you're here!
Hondo: Of course I'm here! This is my company!
Jim: Right you are sir!
Hondo: Now get to work, what I'm paying you for!
Jim: So, uh, any plans for Life Day?
Oliver: Not really, ever since the First Order started cracking down on Life Day I've scaled everything back.
Jim: I know what you mean, word is some Life Day evangelicals were able to create some Life Day robes and orbs here on Batuu!
Oliver: May the force be with them when Kylo Ren finds out about them.
Jim: Ha ha yup.
Jim: Have you ever opened any of the crates?
Oliver: Uh no? Pretty sure Hondo would blast our faces right off.
Jim: Oh cause I just opened one, and you wont believe what I saw!
Oliver: Alright you piqued my intrigue, where's this crate?
Hondo: Nevermind the crate! Get back to work both of you, or on my next assignment I'll jettison you both!
Both: Yes, Hondo.
There will be many more conversations, but hopefully these give a glimpse into what they will entail and the fun banter they will add into the queue.
Preshow
Hondo is looking down at a small communicator talking to an unnamed crewmate he has hired. R5-P8 is seen on a lower level working with the codes and various mechanical controls for the room. A large window gives a peak into the hangar behind Hondo, and two screens flanking Hondo show various statistics of the Millennium Falcon, Katooni (Hondo's ship), and a map of the star system.
Unnamed Crew: Hondo! These coordinates are sending us to Corellia to pick up Coaxium? We didn't even know you could afford that!
Hondo: Hehe, I can't! But it is the First Order's, and what is theirs is ours for the taking!
Unnamed Crew: Soooo how many credits?
Hondo: (angrily) Just steal it!
Hondo turns to face guests fully, and opens his arms up smiling towards the guests.
Hondo: No good help these days. This crew though, I can tell that is not the case. My name is Hondo Ohnaka of Ohnaka Transport Solutions!
Hondo bows to guests as if he expects to receive applause from guests, meanwhile R5 begins to beep and fuss at the pirate.
Hondo: Ah yes, my apologies, that astromech down there is R5 my esteemed assistant who makes all our navigations and errr acquisitions possible.
R5 beeps in satisfaction of being acknowledged by the Weequay. He inserts the coding stick, and changes the visuals on the screen to display the jungles of Kashyyyk.
Hondo: Listen up! We are being paid generously to fly into Kashyyyk to bring in some much needed Life Day cheer. You know the like, baubles, robes, wookies, the silly little things.
The screen to the right of Hondo turns to static as a video call of Chewbacca cuts in, now angered for being called a silly little thing.
Chewbacca: AWHHHERERE!
Hondo: Chewie! Ooh ohoho, I did not say that you were a silly little thing. You have my honor!
R5: Beep boop boop.
Chewbacca: AWHHHERERE!
Hondo: R5! You wamprat! Okay well my honor has always been a bit shaky hehehe. But don't worry a single strand of that Wookie hair of yours, your Life Day shipments will be delivered by me and my lovely crew!
Chewbacca: AWHHHERERE!
Hondo: Eh what? You want to be in my ship! But who will help navigate the Falcon?
On the screen above to the left of Hondo, opposite of Chewbacca, a video call with Babu Frik is now shown.
Babu Frik: Heheeeey! I Babu Friiik!!
Hondo: Aha Babu Frik, it has been much to long friend.
Babu Frik: Where Babu Frik's credits?
Hondo: Still straight to the point, you know that's what I love about you! I'll give a cut of the Life Day rush credits. Now that we have our whole crew, R5 ready the Falcon!
The window behind Hondo shows the Falcon landing into position, and when it does R5 seemingly opens the doors into the next room.
Hondo: One last thing, the First Order has set up a nasty blockade around our destination Kashyyyk, but I'm sure flying aces such as yourselves can handle that.
The Millennium Falcon: Get Into Position
The newly recruited crewmates are led into a hallway that connects Ohnaka Transport Solutions. Before entering the Millennium Falcon Ohnaka Transport Solution workers hand out cards describing what the positions (Engineer, Gunner, and Pilot) are responsible for along with what to do. One side has English, and the other has Spanish. QR codes on the bottom of each side has a link for instructions in Portuguese, French, Chinese and Japanese. Each card will also be color coded.
While relaxing in the Falcon keen crewmates will notice that various crates around the Falcon have been replaced with shipments for Kashyyyk containing Life Day orbs and robes manufactured on Batuu. Throughout the lounge crewmates wait while mood lighting corresponding with what group is being called by Ohnaka Transport Solution workers glows throughout. This acts as a color reminder of whose turn it is to board. Upon being called crewmates are guided to the entrance of the cockpit, and are stationed in front of a monitor in which Hondo can be seen. Hondo soon gives a safety spiel and how to use the
Hondo: Excellent I see you are all here! I can say that you all look like my very best flight crew of this very minute! Now remember once you get into positions put all of your belongings on the floor, and buckle in with those seatbelts.
Hondo: Right pilot remember that to fly up, you must pull down. To fly down, you must pull up! Left pilot to go left just pull left, and to go right just pull right! Gunners! To shoot press that red button for shooting. Engineers! Whenever you see a flip or button flash remember to press it! You must keep the ship in good shape, I don't want to ow that Wookie more.
Hondo: Perfect timing! Okay crewmates step into the cockpit, and remember that Babu Frik will guide you as Chewie and I guide you in my own ship, the Katooni!
Life Day Rush: Batuu Departure
After the crew take their seats, and flip all their switches and press their buttons to start the ship the ride can begin.
Babu Frik: Crew is ready!
The falcon rises upwards out of Ohnaka Transport Solutions, and pilots can see that the Katooni has already taken to the skies.
Hondo: Hello? Hello? Does the communicator work?
Babu Frik: Hondoo?
Hondo: Excellent now pilots follow me, we must deliver Chewie and the Life Day supplies to Kashyyyk quickly!
Chewie: AWHRERERWRE
The Katooni flies above a rising B-Wing, and pilots must decide to either go above of below the B-Wing. If pilots crash into the B-Wing it will activate a special line from Babu Frik.
Babu Frik: Woahwoahwoahh!
The crew on the Falcon continues to follow the Katooni as they maneuver around the spires on Batuu, and even a naturally made stone archway. Gunners can actually shoot at some spires to receive extra credits, but some spires will actually cause the crew to lose gunners. The difference between spires is if they are growing golden lichen or not.
Hondo (if golden lichen is destroyed): Haha nice shooting back there! That'll teach Oga Garra to doublecross Hondo!
Hondo (if "regular" spires are destoryed): What are you doing! Those were camouflaged Resistance interception towers, they're going to cost me a fortune!
The Katooni will begin to ascend out of the planet's atmosphere, and as such guests piloting the Falcon will do the same.
Babu Frik: Warp drive is ready!
Hondo: Right pilot pull down the warp drive!
The Falcon enters Hyperspace for a moment exiting out into the space field above Kashyyyk.
Life Day Rush: First Order Blockade
As the Falcon and Katooni settle into the space above Kashyyyk it becomes clear that Hondo wasn't bluffing about a First Order blockade. Countless ships are stationed around the "Heart of Life Day", and as the Falcon continues in TIE Fighters are seen flying out of various Star Destroyers.
Babu Frik: Fly thruh, no heets!
Hondo: Pilots! Follow me down to Kashyyyk, and gunners shoot TIE Fighters down! We can't afford to not deliver on this Life Day!
As the pilots fly after Hondo they will have to navigate through space debris caused by the destruction of other vessels that have failed to bypass the blockade over Kashyyyk. Gunners can shoot debris to help pilots fly, and Engineers will be able to fix the ship if debris hits the Falcon. TIE Fighters begin to appear from different directions to shoot the Falcon down, and it is up to the gunners to defend the ship. If the gunners fail then the engineers must quickly fix the ship.
This continues for a bit as Hondo and guests fly closer to a Star Destroyer. All of a sudden Hondo's ship is horrendously flown off course, and is pulled in closer to the Star Destroyer. The Falcon slowly follows in resistance.
Hondo: WHAT IS THIS!!! WE'RE IN A TRACTOR BEAM! Gunners shoot that Star Destroyer! Engineers shoot those harpoons to pull my ship out! Pilots activate reverse thrusters!
Babu Frik: Push buttons!!!
As the guests push well the buttons the falcon backs up bit by bit, and the Katooni violently swings around. Regardless of the guests actions the Resistance appears out of hyper space, and shoots the Star Destroyer that was pulling in the Katooni and Falcon.
Hondo (if guests save Hondo): Haha looks like the Resistance is on time! Good work back there, now to Kashyyyk!
Hondo (if Resistance saves Hondo): What was that! Are you trying to sabotage the mission, thank goodness for the Resistance!
The Katooni and Falcon tumble out of the tractor beam, and hurdle towards the planet's surface.
Hondo: Haha brilliant! We're on right on schedule now!
The ships rapidly fly through the atmosphere and, and guests now find the falcon within the jungles of Kashyyyk.
Life Day Rush: Kashyyyk
Guests fly over the seas of Kashyyyk as wookies in fluttercrafts guide in the Katooni and Falcon towards a loading dock. The Katooni lands on a dock, and is quickly stormed by wookies and droid as the cargo bay opens. Chewbacca walks out and wavs goodbye to guests.
Hondo: Great job, Babu take them back to Batuu! I'll be a while.
Babu: Batuu crew go!
With that quick stop the Falcon lifts up again, and enters the hyperdrive into Batuu.
Life Day Rush: Batuu Arrival
The Millennium Falcon exits hyperspace, and enters the space above Batuu. The Falcon quickly enters the skyline of Black Spire Outpost. Pilots will have to navigate around a few more spires before control is given to Babu Frik for landing purposes. When the Falcon lands Babu Frik tallies up the credits made, and damage done to the Falcon to figure out how much each guest made. Depending on how guests do they'll hear either a happy yell from Babu, or an angry murmur from him as damage is taken out of the money Hondo owes him.
