Life Day 2026 Merchandise at a Glance

DisneyStore.com releases start at 8 a.m. PT on November 17. In Disney Parks, items are available during regular operating hours starting November 17. Disney’s announcement does not list prices.

Batuu Adventure Buddies at Disneyland’s Droid Depot

Starting November 17, all three Batuu Adventure Buddies, an Ewok, Grogu and a Huttlet, are sold at Droid Depot in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland park. The Ewok was the first in the collection, arriving at Disneyland on August 13, 2026. The Buddies also go on sale at Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World on November 17.

Each Buddy is an interactive toy with LCD eyes, motorized facial expressions and sounds such as giggles, laughs and chatter. They can interact with droids sold at Droid Depot and with other Buddies nearby.

What Each Batuu Adventure Buddy Does

Disney says more reactions are listed on each Buddy’s packaging.

Batuu Adventure Buddies Gear Sets

Optional gear sets are sold for an additional fee. The accessories attach to a Buddy’s left hand and trigger unique animations, sounds and reactions.

How Buying a Batuu Adventure Buddy Works

Guests start at a dedicated wall bay inside Droid Depot, where a Cast Member helps them choose a Buddy and any accessories. After that comes an activation moment before guests head out to explore Batuu. Droid Depot’s build-your-own droid experience continues alongside the Buddies, and reservations are not required to build a droid at Disneyland park.

New R-Series Droid Factory Figures at Downtown Disney

Also on November 17, new R-Series Droid Factory action figures launch at the Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney. Droid Factory units are separate from the droids built at Droid Depot, and they don’t interact with Batuu Adventure Buddies.

Hasbro’s Ultimate Grogu Animatronic is a 1:1 scale Grogu that Disney describes as a first of its kind. It uses motors and sensors and includes:
