Hey, Disney pals! We’re back with another What’s New in Hollywood Studios.

And this time, we’re exploring updates to the security bag check area, new Harvey’s Star Wars bags, a new Porg Shoulder Plush, and MORE. Are you ready to get the show started? Then…ACTION!

Hollywood Studios Construction Update

Security Bag Check

Hollywood Studios has added more metal detectors and metal tables, much like you see at other parks and resorts.

The whole entrance area is beginning to feel more permanent. There were just folding tables before these were installed!

Progress is also underway for the extended covered security check area. We can’t wait to see how it turns out!

Hollywood Studios Merchandise Update

Celebrity 5 & 10

There are a few new magnets in town. We love this multicolored Walt Disney World magnet because it’s such a fun and classic way to remember a Disney vacation.

Want to feel like you’re driving under the Walt Disney World sign every day? Well, now you can, thanks to the entrance magnet.

You can find each of these magnets at Celebrity 5 & 10 for $9.99.

Backlot Express

Beware of the plush rush as Ducky and Bunny have officially escaped the carnival and made their way to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. You can find these adorable reusable straws at Backlot Express or ABC Commissary for $4.00.

You can pick up this keychain at Stage 1 Company Store for $12.99.

It’s A Wonderful Shop

Even though we’re experiencing some super warm weather, Christmas is still just around the corner. That means it’s time to keep your eyes peeled for new Disney Christmas merchandise!

You can find this new double-sided Seasons Greetings ornament at the It’s a Wonderful Shop for $12.99.

Star Wars Launch Bay

Remember the Harvey’s Bags we spotted at Disney Springs last week

? Well, we found the new FULL collection at Star Wars Launch Bay. Many of the bags can be purchased online as well.

The Star Wars Tote, which seems to be very popular seeing how it’s currently sold out online is $198.

The Darth Vader Crossbody — which you can snag online here — is also $198. This will be perfect to have for when Vader returns to Launch Bay for meet-and-greets on August 29th.

Now you can have your favorite droid with you all the time with the new R2-D2 Park Hopper Bag. It’s also $198!

And now, onto the Chewbacca Messenger Bag, which can be found at Launch Bay and online for $178.

We also spotted a fun Pew Pew Shirt for $24.99.

Beverly Sunset Boutique

In case you missed it, Disney has released a Forky Safety Recall Notice. So, if you have purchased this plush, know that there is a safety issue and the product has been recalled.
