Hey everybody! It’s time for this week’s roundup of What’s New at Hollywood Studios!
This is where we tell you about all the latest new food, merch, and construction we’ve spotted this week throughout Hollywood Studios!
We’ve got a bunch to tell ya about, so let’s get started!
Skyliner Update
Hollywood Studios Skyliner Station
As we were passing by the Skyliner Station at the entrance of Hollywood Studios we noticed the area was still closed off to guests and there was a sign out front re-directing folks to use the Disney buses instead.
We did, however, see the gondolas moving at various times throughout the day, so it appears Disney is conducting more tests on the Skyliner — we’ll keep you posted if we see it open for business!

Construction Update
Some mysterious construction is progressing in the area across from Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant and Baseline Tap.
There’s been a lot of speculation about what this construction could be. We chatted with a friendly Cast Member who told us they could potentially be new restrooms! Boy, we sure hope that’s the case!
Hey, even though PizzeRizzo’s restrooms are only steps away in the Muppets courtyard, we’ll take all the extra restrooms we can get!
Merchandise Update
Multiple Locations
We spotted some Souvenir Pixar Straws at various quick-service counters throughout the park. Previously we’d only seen them available at the Neighborhood Bakery, but now you can get your sip on with Elastigirl and the Luxo Ball at The Market and Woody’s Lunch Box, too!
Celebrity 5 & 10
Over at the Celebrity 5 & 10, we didn’t spot any movie stars, but we did catch sight of this wicked-looking Maleficent MagicBand!
The new MagicBand has the updated packaging that Disney’s been releasing their newer MagicBands with. One side of the band features a very pensive Maleficent while the other has her raven sidekick and lots of spikey thorns!
Celebrity 5 &10 also reminded us today that its almost time to get out our winter coats and mittens (sigh). We spotted two new adorable Winter Hats for $24.99. There was this cute “My Happy Place” Hat that resembled a familiar shade of Arendelle Aqua…
And this cute red version with pom-pom Minnie Mouse ears and SEQUINS!
The tone-on-tone effect makes it a little hard to read, but the sequins say, “Best Day Ever”. So cute!
Legends of Hollywood
At our next stop, we found this wonderful Chip ‘n Dale Tank Top for $34.99. Oh man, we just got the sudden urge to eat sugary cereal and watch every season of Rescue Rangers in our pj’s!
The graphic is just so AMAZING. We love how it even looks a little distressed — like an actual ’80s – ’90s relic!
Speaking of ’80s – ’90s relics, have you been keeping up with all the trendy merch that’s been WHAM!-ing the parks (not so subtle George Michael pun intended)? If not, allow us to walk you through some of this totally tubular new merch! It originally all started with the Retro Mickey Mouse Club gear, and has now progressed into this adorable new line of Mousercise stuff!
You can “Keep Your Body Moving” with this Sweatshirt for $49.99…
… or check out this Cropped Sweatshirt for $34.99 with Mickey and Minnie dancing together! Somehow they actually make exercise look FUN!
We can’t get over how straight outta our childhoods this Mousercise Tank Top for $29.99. Are we certain this isn’t new old stock?
And we can’t forget the Leggings for $39.99. Check out that elastic waistband! Reminds us of our Calvin Kleins we never threw out!
And while it’s so hard to find a good mechanic these days, we found this sweet Gadget’s Garage Shirt for $34.99.
Sunset Ranch Pins and Souvenirs
New-to-us were these Delicious Drinks Pin Packs for $27.99.
The designs feature some of our favorite Disney movies such as Big Hero 6, Moana, and Wreck-It Ralph!
Beverly Sunset Shop
At Beverly Sunset Shop we saw the Luxo Ball Loungefly Backpack for $90 had bounced back into the parks!
The bag had been sold out for a while, so we were excited to see it’s available again!
Also in stock was this Pizza Planet Spirit Jersey for $64.99. We’re definitely going to be needing some new long sleeves with the colder weather!
Creature Stall
On our trip around the Black Spire Outpost, we saw the Jabba Plush for $22.99 were back in stock! We know he’s technically a bad guy, but he looks so lovable and cuddly as a toy!
Keystone Clothiers
At Keystone Clothiers, there was also a galaxy-full of Star Wars: The Rise Skywalker merch! Probably the most we’d seen yet, including some pieces we hadn’t seen elsewhere!
While we’ve spotted the Red Stormtrooper Loungefly Crossbody for $60 at Epcot yesterday, we were happy to see them in stock here as well!
We also saw this Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Loungefly Backpack for $75 that we don’t recall seeing before! It looks similar to some of the other Star Wars Loungeflys, but there are definitely some new faces in the crowd. Guess we’ll just have to see Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker when it comes out December 20th to find out who they are!

Mickey’s of Hollywood Shop
While Star Wars merch’s presence was strong, Frozen II was clapping back against the Force! A large selection of Mickey’s of Hollywood was devoted to the movie coming out on November 22nd!
For more information on Frozen II merch, click here!
And as much as we love the Arendelle Aqua color trend, give us some Rose Gold anything and we’re happy campers! We can’t wait to jot down our Disney itineraries in this Rose Gold Color Changing Sequins Notebook for $14.95!

The drink pins are not new. They might be new to DHS, but I bought several bags of them in Epcot in February.

visited the new Galaxy’s Edge and so sorry to say we were not impressed…. it was just so,so…. nothing to write home about. More people were leaving out than was going in… Disney could have been more original with adding a Disney themed area….. this was a waste of money BRING BACK THE OSBORNE LIGHTS …….. now that’s something that people came back for year after year…….
