While Galaxy’s Edge at Disney World and Disneyland gets a lot of attention from Star Wars fans and folks visiting the theme parks, true stans will know of the appeal of Star Tours, the Star Wars spaceship simulator ride. And now, Star Tours is getting the ultimate homage in one of the best, most high-tech toys around. You can now have your own Starspeeder 3000, the acclaimed cruiser, as a toy model. Better yet, it’s modeled after the original form of the ride vehicle from the attraction that opened back in 1987 (a long, long time ago). Disney also went to incredible levels of detail with a button that opens the doors to let guests embark, an LCD screen that replays moments from the ride, and quite possibly the most important part – Captain RX-24. R2-D2 is included in the ride, but the 25 seats are designed for 3.75-inch figures so that you can bring other Star Wars toys along for the ride. Star Wars Star Tours StarSpeeder 3000 Vehicle Play Set: $300 at Disney StoreView DealThe details of this high-tech toy also extend to the outside of the Starspeeder 3000 with thrusters and barrels that light up with matching sounds. It’s likely the best recreation of the ride in its original form, and fans of Star Tours at either Disneyland or Disney World who have ever wanted to take the ride home now have it in this collectible. You can see a quick video of the collector playset embedded below.Considering the 25 onboard seats have working seatbelts and the screen works, letting your figures relive ride moments, you can get some solid play out of this. Still, if you want it for display – it is a collectible limited to 3,000, after all – it comes with a stand that lights up and sets the Starspeeder in a cool orientation.(Image credit: Disney)The Star Tours StarSpeeder 3000 Vehicle Play Set can be seen for the first time in real life at Disney’s D23 2024 event, currently in Anaheim, California, right near Disneyland itself. It’s dubbed the ultimate fan event, and we’re expecting more news about Star Wars, including shows, future films, and other toys or collectibles, as well as news about Marvel, Disney Plus, and, of course, the Disney parks.
