They say that New York is the city that never sleeps, but we would like to enter Disney World into the conversation, too. From the parks to the resorts, we find new things in Disney World pretty much EVERY DAY! We’re talking new merchandise, new treats, new construction, and sometimes, new attractions! That’s a lot of NEW!
Today we’re back in Disney’s Hollywood Studios to take a look around and see what’s new!
Hollywood Studios Construction Updates
Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities
Every once in a while Disney’s animatronics get a little tired and decide to take a break. Over in Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities, the main man himself Dok-Ondar was missing from his usual spot! His little corner was all covered up with a red curtain for now.
We’ll keep our eyes out to see when he comes back.

Hollywood Studios Food Updates
This is a friendly (and disappointing) reminder that the Tune-In Lounge inside the 50’s Prime Time Cafe is still not serving milkshakes at the to-go bar area.
If you want one of those delicious peanut butter and jelly milkshakes, you’ll have to book a reservation and eat in the sit-down part of the restaurant (whomp whomp…).

Hollywood Studios Merchandise Updates
Legends of Hollywood
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, some new Pandora X Disney charms are popping up around the parks! We found a new Mickey Mouse Double Dangle Charm for $85 at the Legends of Hollywood store. It’s a pretty, rose-goldy charm with lots of character (get it?).
Here’s a list of all the new arrivals in the Pandora collection!
It looks like the Disney Steeds Dooney and Bourke collection made its way to Hollywood Studios!
We’ve seen this collection already in Disney’s Animal Kingdom and the Magic Kingdom, so it’s nice to see it over at Hollywood Studios, too!
Click here to see the FULL collection!
Dark Room
The Dark Room shop near the Hollywood Studios park entrance has a new Stitch pin and lanyard clip set for $19.99!
The lanyard clip could also work as a keychain!
Sunset Couture
Disney’s new Pluto lounge shorts are $36.99, and we’re loving the graphic comic-style cartoon print on these shorts!
They come with a functional drawstring for maximum comfort!
We previously spotted this Cars toy set at the Test Track gift shop, but now it’s also being sold in Hollywood Studios! You can pick up this Lightning McQueen and Brick Yardley set for $16.99.
Speaking of new items that we’ve seen before, we found the pretty new 50th Anniversary beacons of magic puzzle!
Disney has released a TON of new 50th Anniversary-inspired puzzles since October 1st!
Disney World Just Released Over 100 (!!!) Pieces of NEW 50th Anniversary Merchandise
Celebrity 5 &10
Looking for some new home decor? Check out this new soap dispenser we found for $22.99 — it’s got cute little Mickey heads!
The good news is, you can unscrew the top and refill it when you run out of soap! This container is too pretty to use just one time!
Mickeys of Hollywood
We found a MASSIVE new Toy Story 25 year anniversary toy set for $49.99. It comes with 20 little Toy Story characters, including some black and white versions of everyone’s favorite cowboy and cowgirl!
Pretty much every classic Toy Story character is included!
This set looks like so much fun, don’t you think?
Tatooine Traders
Let’s all oooh and ahhh over this new Star Wars baby onesie.
You can buy it for $19.99. The illustrations are so stinkin’ cute!
Black Spire Outpost Market
The Black Spire Outpost clothing store is selling a few different Boba Fett accessories! We found this Boba Fett helmet…
…jetpack…
…and gauntlet set!
All you need is a suit and you’d look just like Boba Fett!
WARNING: Do Not Open Unless You’re a Boba Fett Fan
Hollywood Studios Attraction Updates
Walt Disney Presents One Man’s Dream
There’s a new West Side Story costume exhibit in Hollywood Studios!
On display are four costumes from the new adaptation of West Side Story! It’s really interesting to be able to see all the little costume details you might not catch on the screen.
The display also has little signs with some information about the movie!
Of course, they had to include the most iconic costume in the movie that belonged to Maria and Tony! That white dress has SO much history!
Fun fact: the actress that played Maria in the 2021 West Side Story is also set to star in the new Snow White movie!
We hope you enjoyed our little walk through Disney’s Hollywood Studios! In the meantime, stay tuned for all the latest Disney news and park updates!
