Yesterday, WDWNewsToday.com released a photo that a staffer of theirs took at a Disney Pin Trading Event. The photo is of a display of "Poster" Pins that are designed to look like the tourist posters at the exit of the classic Star Tours ride we all knew and loved. We have posted below their synopsis of the eight pins below and you can read WDWNewsToday.com's full report here...But, we want you to keep this tidbit in mind. The set contains eight pins. Three Star Tours destinations have already been revealed Tattoine, Bespin, and Alderaan. However, Alderaan is nowhere to be found in this set. What does that mean? maybe it means nothing OR is Alderaan perhaps an intended destination that we never actually make it to ala the Endor Express that never actually made it to Endor? Only time will tell, but we will know for sure when the Starspeeder 1000 blasts off in Star Tours: The Adventures Continue on May 20th at Hollywood Studio's in Walt Disney World and at Disneyland on June 3rd.
*1)Geonosis (a setting from Episode II), guests may be chased by Boba Fett and the Slave I vehicle.
*2)Death Star Darth Vader features prominently in this pin, so we may be running into some friends from the Empire once again.
*3)Coruscant The capital of the Galactic Republic, Home to the Galactic Senate and the Jedi Temple. An already revealed location.
*4)Kashyyyk, the home of Chewbacca. Since we noticed concept art that looked like this planet behind George Lucas in a Disney-released publicity shot from many months ago and were then told we will see Chewbacca along the way, this location is really no surprise. However, the poster clearly states that we will visit Treetop Villas, perhaps an inside joke about Disney’s Treehouse Villas?
*5)Hoth This snowy planet from Episode V has a poster featuring a Tauntauns and what we believe is a Wampa (the snow-monster that attacks Luke Skywalker).
*6)Tatooine This already revealed scenario is where guests get stuck in the middle of a podrace as featured here, featuring famous racer Sebulba from Episode I.
*7)Bespin, the cloud city from Episode V. You may remember Bespin was featured in the queue-area commercial Disney previewed last summer at Star Wars Celebration V in Orlando.
*8)Naboo from the prequel trilogy, is home to Queen Amidala and the Gungans (including Jar Jar Binks), the Starapeeder 1000 may encounter a giant sea monster like the one featured in Episode I.
