*NEW* Rest in Chocolate Sundae – $10.79
Rocky Road Ice Cream buried in a Chocolate-covered Waffle Cup with Chocolate Cookie Crumbles and Gummy Worms, topped with a Chocolate Tombstone
This is a standard Rocky Road sundae with a few additions that slightly elevate it. It being served in a waffle cone is a nice touch and does add a bit of extra texture and chocolate flavor on the exterior.
The cookie crumbles add a nice crunch, as well, and the gummy worms, while not offering much in terms of flavor, do provide the occasional break from the chocolate onslaught. The chocolate gravestone decoration is also cute.
This sundae isn’t earth-shattering, by any means, but it’s good. If you like Rocky Road ice cream or chocolate treats, in general, you should check this one out.
Halloween offerings at Disneyland will be available through November 9.

At Gen Con 2023, we got to playtest Star Wars: Unlimited, a new trading card game from Fantasy Flight Games. We also got a first look at some of the game’s accessories created by Gamegenic. These deck pods can be used to both store and display cards, while the sleeves keep them protected.
Tokens
The acrylic tokens are used during gameplay.
They come in various shapes and colors, and feature Aurebesh lettering.
Playmat
The playmat has a background that resembles hyperspace.
White outlines show where various cards should be set.
White Deck Pod
The white pod has black velvet lining and a white exterior.
There are built-in transparent sleeves for sliding cards into.
As seen in the video from Gamegenic below, the deck pod has a detachable slide card case, perfect for storing your leader card. The deck pods are also branded with the Star Wars: Unlimited logo.
There are drawers in the deck boxes for storing tokens, while decks can be stacked on top.
Blue Deck Pod
The blue deck pod is inspired by the Vigilance aspect.
See another video from Gamegenic featuring the blue deck pod below.
Darth Vader Card Sleeves
There are two sets of card sleeves, which have a matte finish. One features artwork from the Darth Vader leader card.
Luke Skywalker Card Sleeves
The other features artwork from the Luke Skywalker leader card. These two leader cards inspire their respective Star Wars: Unlimited starter decks.
Below is the press release from Gamegenic regarding their Star Wars: Unlimited accessories.
GAMEGENIC ANNOUNCES PRODUCT LINE FOR STAR WARS: UNLIMITED TRADING CARD GAME
Gamegenic, in collaboration with Fantasy Flight Games and Lucasfilm Ltd., is very proud to reveal a brand-new line of accessories for upcoming Star Wars: Unlimited, a trading card game (TCG) of unlimited possibilities. The game features heroes, villains, ships, and settings from all facets of the legendary Star Wars franchise. All accessories will launch with the game globally in 2024.
Every accessory in the Star Wars: Unlimited product line is inspired by the iconic look and feel of the franchise’s galaxy – while being specifically tailored to the needs of players and collectors. The aim is not only to protect and display gameplay components, but also to enrich the player experience in unique and surprising ways.
Gamegenic accessories perfectly complement the game’s mechanics and material. In typical Gamegenic fashion, every detail has been carefully thought out and designed to support the exceptional Star Wars atmosphere, giving little nods to iconic features.
“Ever since my early childhood, I have been a huge Star Wars fan. Working on this project is a lifelong dream come true!” says Adrian Alonso, Head of Gamegenic. “You can count on the fact that every single product will be special – to fans of the franchise and players of TCGs alike.”
He adds: “With the unique relationship that people have with their games and respective franchises, we take improving their needs very seriously. The Star Wars: Unlimited game deserves extraordinary accessories and this is a collection of our very best innovations. When you start using our products during gameplay, they become so much more than just ordinary gaming supplies – they enrich the game and perfectly complement every round played.”
“We are thrilled to be working with the exceptionally creative team at Gamegenic for the accessories of our upcoming Star Wars: Unlimited game,” says Chris Gerber, Fantasy Flight Games Head of Studio. “We are wowed by each product’s design and outstanding quality, and we are more than happy to offer these excellent accessories to our players!”
A new decorative element has appeared at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom. The attraction is currently under construction, taking over what was once Splash Mountain. While fresh fake moss appears on the mountainside, the barn in the ride’s queue has been painted yellow. Now a colorful mural is visible on one side of the barn.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Barn Mural
The mural is visible from the ground beyond the Walt Disney World Railroad station.
Over the construction walls, we could see the mural on the bottom half of the barn, behind scaffolding.
The mural features people with diverse skin tones, lines of vibrant colors, plants, and music notes.
We tried getting another look from the Walt Disney World Railroad, but the mural is on the wall just around the corner and barely visible.
In these photos, you can see the edge of the mural, just past the barn’s entrance.
Scaffolding is around the front and far sides of the barn. The entrance and window are blocked by black curtains so guests can’t see the ongoing construction work inside.
Some of the queue’s sidewalk has also been torn up to be replaced with new pavement.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
During Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Tiana, Naveen, and Louis venture into the bayou to find animal friends as they prepare for a special Mardi Gras celebration. The ride will feature 17 new characters, including Prince Naveen’s younger brother, Ralphie. There will be multiple Tiana audio-animatronics, and she has a new adventuring outfit.
The scene depicted in the above concept art is “the thrilling moment you first drop into the bayou and encounter some friends both new and familiar.” Louis and a band of animals will be playing zydeco music, a blend of rhythm and blues that was created in Louisiana. The band of animal friends includes an otter, a rabbit, a raccoon, a beaver, and a turtle playing instruments made from natural bayou elements.
Award-winning artists PJ Morton and Terence Blanchard will arrange the queue and attraction music with a mix of songs from “The Princess and the Frog,” New Orleans classics, and original compositions. The scent of beignets will also be pumped throughout the queue.
Most of the original cast is providing their voice talent to the attraction, including Anika Noni Rose (Tiana), Bruno Campos (Naveen), Michael Leon Wooley (Louis), and Jennifer Lewis (Mama Odie). The above concept art shows Mama Odie in the crow’s nest of her home surrounded by glowing bottles.
