Watch as Star Wars BB-8 visits Walt Disney World
By Matt & Quinn Roseboom
Watch as the Sphero Star Wars BB-8 droid visits the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World.
He rolls right down Main Street U.S.A., window shops, lounges in the new hub gardens, gets a PhotoPass photo, visits the Little Mermaid, watches some shows, rides an attraction and gets his own Mickey ears to wear during the fireworks.
This BB-8 is an app remote controlled toy manufactured by Sphero. If it’s not sold out, you can purchase one for $150 at many retailers, including Watto’s Grotto at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The “real” full-size BB-8 makes his movie debut in the new “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” movie this December.
Disclaimer: We don’t suggest you take your Sphere BB-8 to a theme park. Ours almost got stepped on and lost his head a few times.
