I know he always had a silver leg, I guess I just forgot he didn't have the red arm in Ep8.

When I was a kid I "painted" the old C-3PO doll's leg with silver sharpie.

"Drinks only! Due to budget cuts, the sit-down restaurant portion of the Cantina in #GalaxysEdge reportedly will not be ready by the May 31 opening. It will debut with the Rise of the Resistance attraction as part of the Phase 2 opening."

"Because the #GalaxysEdge Cantina is so small (max. occupancy: 30), drink buyers will be under a one-hour time limit. When your time is up, you’ll be asked to leave so another guest can experience the location"

...I checked and NO, the ride system will remain trackless. Looks like Imagineers have figured out the major wi-fi issue with the vehicles and are currently fine tuning them. (source's words - not mine)

wifi issue? did they maybe figure out they need unplug the router from the power outlet and plug it back in?

I just don't understand how they could have gone forward with a Cantina, an iconic, world-defining element of Star Wars, and the first venue to break Disneyland's prohibition and sure to be an extremely popular attraction, with a capacity of a measley 30 people (potentially) per hour. How can that be profitable?

who even needs a hour to have a drink is my question?

It’s almost like they want it to be like Club 33 except the general public can enter...when they can get in.

 

[THE 1HAPPY HAUNT]

I thought the capacity for the whole cantina was 100 people max capacity not 30 including sit down options

A drink? As in one? Nah. The drinkers will pack as many in as service allows in that alleged hour.

I disagree. the average drink is prob gonna cost upwards of 10 bucks. most people will prob grab one drink and walk around the cantina to admire and look at the atmosphere and theming as they drink it then bounce. its not going to be some dive bar where someone has multiple drinks. not like they gonna offer a happy hour.

 

[Practical Pig]

I'm not buying it. The cantina will be crazy popular but purposely build it so almost no one can use it?

Yep. It's very hard to believe that Disney would put such a chokehold on profit.

Maybe so. But the ten (or likely more) buck price tag isn't going to give much pause to many of Disney's affluent day guests. And the AP crowd is financially diverse.

Lamplight Lounge specialty cocktails start at $13 bucks. The cantina drinks will be at least that.

it will give them pause because you cant walk around the land with the drink. so they will go to the cantina, have a drink and look around but then leave because they want to experience the rest of the land and the falcon ride. plus they wont be able to easily go back in line and get back in the cantina. some might skip the cantina altogether due to the lines to get in and the capacity per hour. I cant see people having more than 1 drink in their first visit.
