| The family & I were at Disney in Florida, 2011 or 2012 ish.
I'll see if I can find some of our picks from the Star Tour & Jedi Academy. |

| I never got the opportunity to go as a kid, But I hope to take my son next year. He will be seven then so hopefully tall enough to go on most of the rides.
The star tours set looks amazing and has made me want to go and see it first hand even more!
It would be cool to catch the old version before it is replaced in 2017. |

| Thanks for sharing, Paul! Great to see the enthusiasm for Star Wars in Junior. I should definitely visit Disneyland once to get the Star Tour experience. |

| Cheers everyone. We enjoyed the whole park (honourable mentions to the Studio Tram Tour, Moteurs Stunt Show, Phantom Manor and Armageddon  ) but the Star Tours bit was extra special. The good thing is that most of the queueing for the StarSpeeder simulator takes place inside the set so you have time to take a good look at the animatronics and grab pics. The pic below shows a mock StarSpeeder 3000 vehicle.  Photo: DisneyThe Star Tours gift shop  Photo: Disney

| Awesome pics, Stef Thanks for adding. Love the Ewok village theme, the AT-AT, and how cool is the gift shop! Hope Paris does some cool stuff like that when they refurb. |
