News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

[Disney Irish]

I believe roaming droids have been cut. You may find droid AAs in various places that are not accessible by people to touch, unless it's like a BB8 M&G.

That's just what they want you to think so its a surprise when the land opens at DLR.

But then again I wouldn't be surprised if DHS cut theirs because the land is so much smaller....

Is there second story access anywhere in galaxys edge to walk around, views, anything?

We think only from within the queue for the Falcon ride that there are second story windows. That's it. All the upper walkways are for CMs for either backstage service or maybe even for streetmosphere shows.

Also, SWGalaxysEdge, I see you liked that post. As the foremost expert and insider on all things Galaxy's Edge, I'd think you'd know this character is confirmed alive and playing a part in this land. The creators themselved made a big deal about it at the panel presentation back int 2018.

...yep. Mike Quinn told me himself he wrapped filming for the ride last July.

Will there be a smoking section?

I'm sure Disney is working on it.

 

[SWGalaxysEdge]

In all seriousness about the smoking section, I have been told "...normally there would be a smoking section..."
No word on where, however.

Disney's been reducing the number of smoking sections around the park. I'd bet a good amount of money that there won't be a smoking section in Galaxy's Edge.

I hope not

There is already a smoking section in that location, its at Big Thunder Trail. There doesn't need to be one inside the land, and likely there won't be.

It's always blown my mind that they would dedicate valuable real estate and resources because some people have decided to slowly kill themselves (and others around them), and "NEED" to smoke every couple of minutes. Need to smoke? You can always get a hand stamp and exit the park. Have it out there?

I disagree. I prefer to keep the smokers segregated. Actually, I would prefer an enclosed area with exhaust fans and filters so the smoke doesn't waft over the adjacent walkway.

They don't do hand stamps anymore...

Cigarettes, vape and other dead sticks should be outlawed in the resort boundaries.

It would be interesting to see family meltdowns intensify due to parents going through a nic fit.

You take the smoking sections away and people will smoke wherever they want.

Suggested smoking section for Galaxy's Edge - see arrow. Inside this "enclosed circle"

No. Everyone around them would beat them.

From the construction and model, there’s no indication that they’re building an exit right to the parking lot is there? There really needs to be. Funneling everyone through Main St would be insane.

Yet they do it everyday for the last sixty four years.

They should widen Main Street by knocking down all of the buildings. That would really help with crowd flow.
