Walt Disney Imagineer Zach Riddley announced On Instagram that Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will have a merchandise store called Treasures of Xandar.
Riddley shared an image of the freshly installed Treasures of Xandar sign outside the Wonders of Xandar pavilion where guests will enter and exit Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.
The sign is made of metal and mostly silvery grey. Some purple cuts through the center.
Riddley writes the following:
Another exciting milestone this morning at the Wonders of Xandar pavilion as we announce and reveal our merchandise location: Treasures of Xandar!
This store is operated by The Broker, a proud Xandarian, who’s been awarded the contract and brought part of his famous store here to EPCOT. Some of the merchandise pays tribute to Xandar and items acquired throughout the galaxy and, of course, some items celebrate The Heroes of Xandar, the Guardians of the Galaxy.
The Broker also shared the following with our WDI team recently: “I am so delighted to bring my wares to the Wonders of Xandar pavilion. As a proud Xandarian, it gives me great pleasure to represent my planet to you Terrans and allow you to bring home a small bit of Xandar from my shop: Treasures of Xandar. I only hope that it brings our two cultures that much closer together.”
Seeing these design elements come into place completes years worth of dreaming and creating by our talented team. And the results are out of this world! We look forward to inviting all of you to the opening this summer as part of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT.
