Well, we’re almost there as Disneyland Resort opens its doors tomorrow (May 31st) and it looks like a dream come true for Star Wars fans.

The very idea of walking around in a world unique to Star Wars, populated by familiar faces from the last 40 years and with the Falcon sitting in the background has me almost giddy. It’ll likely be 20 years before i can afford to go… but still, giddy.

Oh and there’s blue milk.

Sold.

Thousands of Guests will get to live their adventure at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge after its opening at the Disneyland Resort. But few can say they were first in the galaxy to experience the new land.

Meet a crew of Star Wars fans on their journey to Batuu. Star Wars touched their lives once. Now, Disney Parks and Star Wars are going to touch their lives again—by bringing them out to be the first Guests to experience the best Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has to offer at the Disneyland Resort.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
