Meet the Three Batuu Adventure Buddies

So, who will be joining you on your next adventure through Black Spire Outpost?

Guests can choose from three adorable characters, each with its own personality, sounds, and interactive reactions.

The available Batuu Adventure Buddies include:

  • Ewok: Bring home a little forest-dwelling friend inspired by the beloved inhabitants of Endor.
  • Grogu: The adorable little one from The Mandalorian is ready to join your adventures.
  • Huttlet: This mischievous little creature brings a whole new personality to the Batuu Buddy collection.

These interactive toys were crafted by a scrappy crew of Anzellan manufacturers and feature expressive eyes, motorized facial movements, and a variety of sounds, including giggles, laughter, and chatter.

But perhaps the most exciting feature is how they interact with you!

Each Buddy responds to different touches and accessories, and they can even interact with other droids and Batuu Adventure Buddies nearby.

Let’s take a closer look at what each one can do.

Ewok Batuu Adventure Buddy

Who could resist bringing home their own little Ewok?

This adorable companion has several special reactions that Guests can activate with a few simple taps.

Endor Dance Party (Triple-Head-Tap)

Give your Ewok three quick taps on the head to activate rhythmic eye animations accompanied by Ewokese chanting and drumming sounds. Nearby Ewoks may even join in!

Forest Call Chain (Double-Belly-Tap)

Double-tap your Ewok’s belly near other Batuu Adventure Buddies to trigger a scout call. Nearby toys can respond in their own languages, creating a fun little interaction between companions.

Looks like your new Ewok friend has plenty to say!

Grogu Batuu Adventure Buddy

This might be the one Star Wars fans have been waiting for!

The beloved Grogu is getting his own interactive Batuu Adventure Buddy, allowing Guests to bring home their very own little Force-sensitive companion.

And just like the character we know and love, this little one has some entertaining tricks up his sleeve.

Snack Surprise (Double-Belly-Tap)

Give Grogu one of his accompanying accessories to eat, then quickly tap his belly twice. You’ll trigger a belching sound effect followed by a content sigh.

Apparently, even a little Force user needs a good snack!

Force Play (Triple-Head-Tap)

Tap Grogu’s head three times to activate expressive Force-inspired eye animations. Other nearby toys can react with excitement, too.

It’s another adorable way for Grogu to interact with his surroundings.

Huttlet Batuu Adventure Buddy

For something a little different, Guests can also bring home a Huttlet!

This mischievous companion has its own collection of reactions and animations.

Appetite Echo (Double-Belly-Tap)

Double-tap the Huttlet’s belly to activate giggling and slithering eye animations, followed by a deep, mischievous Huttese laugh.

Cunning Deal Maker (Triple-Head-Tap)

Give the Huttlet three taps on the head to activate mischievous eye animations that turn into a big, victorious grin, complete with a coin animation.

Who knew a little Huttlet could have such a big personality?
