Still my favorite pin from the #StarWars #GalacticStarcruiser at #WaltDisneyWorld. Pull the top to quietly reveal your membership in the #Resistance.

Only available to those who received the secret passphrase during their adventure which was to be whispered at the #Chandrila Collection "gift shop".

Disney absolutely knows experiences. This #GenX guy cried twice in his life at a theme park:
Seeing the #MillenniumFalcon at Galaxy's Edge for the 1st time
Walking onboard the Star Wars #GalacticStarcruiser
...you rly have to see it to believe it.

Some of my "I'm-packing-for-#Batuu" gear. Lotsa Greeblies, Republic credits & my #BlackSpire citizen's badge all included.

I was never that excited about #Disneyland until the arrival of #StarWars #GalaxysEdge & #GalacticStarCruiser. (R.I.P.)

Suddenly, I'm thinking about a #Club33 membership.

I watched "Star Wars Galaxy's Edge: Adventure Awaits" for the 20 bazillion the time. I tear up at every watch.

...but I'm still incredibly bitter about Disney's closure of the "Star Wars Galactic StarCruiser". You folks have no idea what you missed out on.

At least I got to take my family to experience it together. My kid still talks about it.

The Spectacular Failure of the Star Wars Hotel, trash can edition. Don't have 4 hours to watch YouTuber Jenny Nicholson's video essay on "the Star Wars hotel"? (https://buff.ly/3x7aqaQ) These lame attempts at trash cans summarize the story quite well.

Finally got one. The last #StarWars #GalacticStarcruiser pin I didn't have. I might need to put this under glass. #Resistance #Disney

Hmm. Starcruiser fabric & metal awnings?

"Disney has filed a construction permit for the now-closed Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser at Walt Disney World.

The permit is assigned to Sunstate Awning & Graphic Design, a... company that provides custom fabric & metal awnings."

Awnings? There's no windows or outdoors area besides the Climate Simulator...

@Fury I've had more than a few people come to me with major regrets for blowing me off when I told them to book the Starcruiser.

Here's some photos of the shuttle boarding hallway that Batuu visitors won't get to see because it's beyond the metal gate that's locked up. (You can see it's open in the photo below during my trip on the SWGS)

I don't know how I feel about this at all. They're using the old shuttle bay at Batuu for the Galactic StarCruiser as a photo op.

I guess it's good that they're making use of the old gateway to the #StarWars #GalacticStarcruiser shuttles to & from Batuu.

Still feels weird though.

Thinking about giving this to my 14yo genius niece who's a die hard #StarWars fan. I tried getting her father to come with us to the #GalacticStarcruiser & even room with us to allow them to save money but he said she had summer "math class".

I was furious at him for her cuz I knew she would have died to go but I didn't mention it to her. After the trip we talked how we went & what it was like. She got very quiet.

She doesn't own a light saber so I think she might like my Halcyon trainer.

One of my favorite memories from the #StarWars #GalacticStarcruiser. I had metal baggage tags CNC cut & made for everyone in the family. They're super cool & indestructible. (Available on Etsy.)

Man, I really miss the Crown of Corellia. What I wouldn't do to be able to visit again along with the Sublight Lounge.

They could mix that with a show featuring Gaya with some drama created by Raithe & bonus interactivity through the M-Band Plus & Datapad.

From Chandrila to Coruscant to Bespin to Adinax Nebula to Batuu and back: Y'all simply have no idea what you missed.
