Once Upon a Time And, we’ve got plenty of merchandise, food, entertainment, and construction updates, so let’s dive right on in! Disney’s Animal Kingdom Pandora Animal Kingdom Merchandise Update Pandora Although we’ve loved getting on Flight of Passage back-to-back with some of the shorter wait times in the parks, the new Flight of Passage Kids’ Shirt is quite the statement with fringe… Flight of Passage Shirt …and glow in the dark features for $24.99! We bet your little one would look AWESOME in the bioluminescent forest wearing this tee! Flight of Passage Shirt Discovery Trading Co. Although Bing Bong is Riley’s imaginary friend, you can look just as sweet as our favorite candy-yielding pal wearing the Bing Bong Button Down! Bing Bong Button Down Bing Bong looks just as happy as we are to be wearing this shirt for $59.99 (just look at his l’il hat). Bing Bong Button Down Although we’re ready for all the Pumpkin Spice coffee creamers and flavors coming to our local grocery stores, we think you can make your morning a bit wild with the Safari Animal Kingdom Mug for $14.99! The Fab Five is setting off on an adventure (almost like Indiana Jones) through the parks… Safari Animal Kingdom Mug …buuut we bet they’re probably going to take a coffee break along the way too! ;D Safari Animal Kingdom Mug We have a slight obsession with Baby Yoda (and we’re not afraid to admit it)! Although we’re big fans of the Funko POP! figurines, we’re pretty sure we need ALL of the Baby Yoda Bounty Collection to line our shelves! Baby Yoda “The Bounty” Collection If you thought Baby Yoda was cute awake, he looks like a little bundle of joy all snuggled up to go to sleep… Sleeping Baby Yoda …but he also looks adorably hilarious at snack time eating his favorite treat (frogs for daysss)! Yum! Frogs! Although you might say Baby Yoda looks a bit like his older counterpart when he’s using the Force… Use the Force! …he could just be reaching for the little metal bulb in the Mandalorian’s spaceship during one of their adventures! He looks so happy! Each Baby Yoda figurine is $9.99! Someone let him out! (We can’t resist those big eyes!!) Check out the FULL collection of Baby Yoda figurines you can find in Disney World here! Island Mercantile Since Animal Kingdom is a place to step into the jungle, we weren’t surprised to see the new-to-us Safari Collection over at Island Mercantile! Adults can chill out at their favorite spots around the park wearing the Safari Mickey Tank… Safari Mickey Tank …which comes with snakeskin, zebra, cheetah print, and more designs on the Mickey head for $29.99! Safari Mickey Tank And, your little one can match with you as you pose in Pandora or go on an expedition to Everest in the Kids’ Safari Dress for $34.99… Animal Print Dress …and the Kids’ Wild Tee with fashionable holes on the shoulders for $29.99, so they can look fabulous during their trek across Animal Kingdom! Wild Tee Plus, the Kids’ Leopard Print Shorts can add a pop of fun to any outfit during your kiddos’ trip to Disney World… Leopard Print Shorts …especially since the leopard print panels on the side are simply adorable for $24.99. Leopard Print Shorts Animal Kingdom Food Update Drink and Food Carts Although there’s plenty of Halloween merchandise, decorations, and MORE coming to Disney World, we were surprised to find a random Halloween item at the food and drink carts around Animal Kingdom! Baridi Baridi Kiosk While we’ve seen the Pumpkin Tire Straw in the park during past Halloween events, it has officially made its way back to Animal Kingdom for the Fall! Pumpkin Tire Straws We spotted the Pumpkin Tire Straw at Bahindi Bahindi and Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks. Pumpkin Tire Straw And get this, Animal Kingdom will be getting lots more fall goodies very soon. Find out all the details of what Fall experiences will be coming to Disney World this year! Creature Comforts Although we saw Pumpkin Spice pop up for the first time of the season at the Trolley Car Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Creature Comforts has also been decked out in Fall snacks and drinks! You can sip on the Salted Caramel Mocha Frappuccino, Pumpkin Spice Latte (hot or iced), and Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew… Fall Starbucks Drinks …there are also plenty of snacks to pick up at the bakery! On top of the Pumpkin Scone and Fox Vanilla Cake Pop… Pumpkin Scone and Fox Cake Pop …the fan-favorite Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin is back too (and we can’t get enough of these sweet treats)! Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin We’re so happy pumpkin season has returned! Check out all the sweet pumpkin goodies that you can get this Fall in Disney World! Yak and Yeti While you’re stopping by for lunch or dinner, you can head over to Yak and Yeti for the off the menu specials inside the restaurant! Yak and Yeti Restaurant We’re talkin’ Bang Bang Calamari, Lobster Tail Garlic Noodles with Shrimp & Scallops, and Hibachi Steak and Shrimp that will make a BOMB feast. Read MORE about these off the menu eats here! Animal Kingdom Construction Update Creature Comforts After we had picked up a bunch of pumpkin treats from Creature Comforts, we noticed that there was some sort of construction next door. While the area was blocked off to guests, we will have to keep checking back to see what’s cookin’ over in the area! Creature Comforts Construction Kilimanjaro Safaris Since we’ve been back on the Kilimanjaro Safaris to greet all the animals again, we noticed a building being constructed at the end of the ride! While we aren’t sure yet what the little hut will be… Kilimanjaro Safaris Construction …the building has progressed forward with a roof, poles, a porch area, and more! We’ll keep checking back on the construction to see what Kilimanjaro Safaris has in store for the animals and the guests! Kilimanjaro Safaris Construction Now, let’s head on over to Disney’s Hollywood Studios to see what’s happening over there! Disney’s Hollywood Studios Crossroads Hollywood Studios Merchandise Update First Order Cargo We’ve been exploring all the reopened stores, attractions, and restaurants in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge since Disney’s Hollywood Studios opened back up again in July. But, we saw the First Order Cargo location open for the first time this week! First Order Cargo The store has distancing measures in place, including markings to wait behind and directional arrows to keep up with the flow of traffic. Distancing Measures A hand-sanitizer station is available for guests to use before they check out their favorite First Order merchandise… Hand-Sanitizing Station …which includes some epic accessories… First Order Cargo …apparel like tees and jackets… First Order Cargo …and even your very own Stormtrooper Helmet! First Order Cargo Hollywood Studios Entertainment Update Rise of the Resistance During our latest trip through the Star Destroyer to aid the Resistance, we encountered something different from our past rides on Rise of the Resistance! While there is a whole room of Stormtroopers after guests get captured, there were LIVE Stormtroopers guarding our transport vehicles this time around! Live Stormtroopers in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance While we made sure to let them know we weren’t the droids we were looking for, we kind of hope to see them again as we return back to the attraction. Live Stormtroopers in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance We will keep you posted if we do! Watch the LIVE Stormtroopers in action in our video here! Tower of Terror If you’re hopping on Tower of Terror, it’s practically a rite of passage to have a photo of your party looking terrified (or a VERY staged pose)! Either way, we’ve definitely got a collection of ride photos back home. But, we noticed that Tower of Terror wasn’t showing ride photos after the ride during our last visit. However, we did receive the photo in our My Disney Experience PhotoPass after the fact, so be sure to check your app to download your pictures! Tower of Terror Photos Well, that’s it for this What’s New at Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios! We’ll catch you next time for more merchandise, food, entertainment, and construction updates! What are you looking forward to seeing the most in the parks? Let us know in the comments below!
