When Disney chairman and CEO Bob Iger announced the expansion of Disneyland with a new Star Wars theme park during the D23 Expo, fans could not be more excited.
Suggestions have already come out on what the Disneyland Star Wars theme park should have, including guests being able to build their own droids.
PCMagazine published the seven things they want to see in the Disneyland Star Wars theme park, and one of them is letting kids get into their robotic side and build a personalized droid.
"Whatever it takes to get kids into some robotics, Disney and Star Wars can do it," the report said. "Think of it as Build-a-Bear but with hardware, where kids can get to walk out with a personalized, remote-controlled astromech droid like R2 or BB-8, or some unholy hybrid of them with a red C-3PO arm."
Droids are integral characters in the Star Wars universe. According to a Star Wars information website, Droids are robots that have artificial intelligence. Like R2-D2 and C-3PO, droids are utilized to analyze things that need extensive knowledge or too risky for humans to process.
PCMagazine suggested the Disneyland Star Wars theme park to let guests create their own droids and control them in various ways.
Aside from this exciting possible theme park attraction, the report also suggested an attraction that will let guests immerse themselves in carbonite freezing and turn into a "frozen memorabilia." They also pitched some other possible attractions such as speeder rides and being able to buy a Stormtrooper armor.
The Walt Disney Company announced the building of this Disneyland Star Wars theme park which will replace Frontierland's Big Thunder Ranch in California, The San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
"We're creating a jaw-dropping new world that represents our largest single themed land expansion ever," Bob Iger said.
Among the planned Disneyland Star Wars theme park features are: "a re-themed the Space Mountain indoor roller coaster as Hyperspace Mountain, an updated Star Tours and new challenges at the Jedi Academy," the report added.
Furthermore, the report also said at least two immersive rides will be added, the Disneyland Star Wars theme park characters will be costumed, and guests can reportedly experience the taste of blue milk and the smell of Bantha fodder.
The new Disneyland Star Wars theme park will reportedly start construction in 2017.
