Darth Vader Meet and Greet Has Returned to Disneyland and MickeyBlog is There
Yesterday, Disneyland took to Twitter to share a very exciting bit of news for Star Wars fans! Darth Vader has returned to Disneyland for meet and greets! And, it just so happens, that MickeyBlog is there and queued up for a chance to mingle with with Lord Vader.
Here’s a look at Disneyland’s post from yesterday:
“We meet again, at last.”
Darth Vader will return to Tomorrowland for a limited-time, beginning tomorrow! And don’t miss the limited series #ObiWanKenobi streaming now only on Disney+. pic.twitter.com/1DtZlCnOmn— Disneyland Resort (@Disneyland) June 11, 2022
The return of Vader is to celebrate the new Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi. If you’ve been following along with MickeyBlog, you’ll know that both Hayden Christensen and James Earl Jones have reprised their roles as the formidable leader of the Empire.
It should be noted that the Darth Vader meet and greet is NOT taking place at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge but rather in Tomorrowland.
You’ll find the start of the queue at the Star Wars Launch Bay.
There’s also new signage with Obi-Wan Kenobi branding!
The return of the meet and greet is still a bit under the radar.
Greg said that when we went to line-up there was about a 30 minute wait.
You can see that the queuing area is adjacent to Alien Pizza Planet.
Above is a look at the queue!
Finally, it’s time for our moment with the formidable Darth Vader!
He shook his fist at our mere presence.
As you can see, the area where he meets guests has a black space print.
Vader himself stands in front of an imperial looking backdrop.
We’re surprise Vader agreed to pose with a jovial Jedi like Greg!
Greg is giving MickeyBlogger readers a big Thumbs Up! from Disneyland Resort!
Don’t miss your chance to meet Darth Vader during your next Disneyland getaway!
Before we go, here’s a quick video we took of the Star Wars baddie in action:
