The new Mando and Grogu backstory on Smugglers Run finds Hondo Ohnaka sending recruits (that's us) on a daring mission aboard the Millennium Falcon to four Star Wars locales.
The mission starts with a high-stakes deal on Tatooine where ex-Imperial officers have crossed paths with a ruthless band of pirates. Our job: Team up with Mando and Grogu to collect the crates being transported by the pirates.
The often-underutilized engineer position on Smugglers Run will be responsible for charting a course to one of three Star Wars planets - Bespin, Endor or Coruscant.
Disneyland will also roll out the new BDX Droid popcorn bucket and Mando and Grogu Jetpack sipper on May 21 that are sure to be popular among Star Wars fans and collectors.
Disneyland Magic Key holders can get a free Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run attraction poster featuring the Mandalorian and Grogu starting May 19 at Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney.
