Impressive new two-legged droids debut at Star Wars Galaxy's Edge in Disneyland

Star Wars Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland Resort in California is now home to three new free-roaming two-legged droids.

The droids made their debut today, and in this video from X user Disney Dan Becker, we can see them in action at Black Spire Outpost.

Adding more droids brings Galaxy's Edge closer to the original concept that we were introduced to when the project was first announced in 2015. The land was meant to teem with alien life forms, including droids and other characters.

No word yet on how long they will be around for or if they will make it to Galaxy's Edge in Walt Disney World.

You can see more of the characters in development in this Walt Disney Imagineering video.

Correct, mix on site instead of transporting from a batch plant.

A volumetric concrete mixer?

There are AT-ACTs but there are no AT-CATs.

We also have Chicken Walkers and Camel Walkers in Star Wars; meaning these creatures exist and bear the same names as well.

Okay, I couldn't find an image of the ducks flying when the Columbia fires its cannon. But I tried! :D This was the closest I could come up with:

Yep. Canonized ducks are on Naboo in The Phantom Menace, based on Captain Panaka's use of the phrase "We'll be sitting ducks." https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Duck

Ducks are actually canon in Star Wars. In the 1977 novelization of Star Wars there is this passage: Obi-Wan Kenobi: "Still, even a duck has to be taught to swim." Luke Skywalker: "What's a duck?" Otherwise they are native to Naboo. Batuu ducks just hitched a ride off a freighter.

If Disney’s gonna’ have errant waterfowl roamin’ about Batuu, they could at least have them be more alien-lookin’ waterfowl, so as not to break show…!!! ;)

Duck happens. :D

Right. Not to mention the fact that they haven’t started construction and they would need the work competed by the end of March.
