A new baby Ewok plush is available at Walt Disney World. We found the “Star Wars” plush in the Emporium at Magic Kingdom.
Baby Ewok Plush – $39.99
The Ewok has brown fur and is wearing a green cowl.
It comes wrapped in an orange swaddle patterned with trees, leaves, Ewok cowls, and simple shapes recalling the Forest Moon of Endor.
The swaddle comes attached to the Ewok but it can be unwrapped.
Ewoks first appeared in “Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi” and helped the Rebel Alliance achieve victory over the Empire.
“Return of the Jedi” 40th Anniversary
“Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi” was released in theaters on May 24, 1983, so recently celebrated its 40th anniversary. The film was the third in the original “Star Wars” trilogy, following “A New Hope” and “The Empire Strikes Back.”
