Limited Release Star Tours T-Shirts & Posters Coming Soon
This coming Friday, Disney will be releasing the final T-Shirt and poster from their Star Tours collection, the T-Shirt and Poster will only be available for a limited time from Friday on DisneyStore. Disney will also be making all previous T-Shirts and Posters from the Star Tours available again for a week, featuring planets from the Star Wars universe like Endor, Tatoonie, Hoth, Bespin and more.
Here is a look at the new T-Shirt:
The design features the ride poster that arrived at Disneyland in January 1987 and Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios, in July 1989. The T-Shirt and Poster feature Rex, StarSpeeder vehicle and Star Tours logo.
The Disney Insider Blog spoke with graphic designer Richard Terpstra, who said “I had remembered those original attraction posters as you were going through the exit queue,” Terpstra explained. “And thought, Why don’t we do something based on those?”
With Richard’s talented team, he then made “logo-esque designs.” But, in typical Disney fashion, there’s also something hidden in the tees and posters. “There’s an easter egg for Disney design fans,” he said. “We designed them around the vintage EPCOT center pavilion logos.” Terpstra calls this a double whammy of getting “the content from the Star Tours attraction, and styled in that manner.” As for December’s tee he said, “We decided to end it on one big bang, with the original attraction poster.” Along with the new shirt and poster, you’ll be able to get all of the other shirts and posters that were previously offered. But the catch: it’ll be one week only. “Then they go back in our archives. Who knows if they’ll ever surface again!” Terpstra teases.
These T-Shirts & Posters will go on sale on Friday at DisneyStore.com.
