Your mind wasn't playing Jedi Mind Tricks, you really DID drive past a full-scale Star Wars prop on the A38. Despite its scale and detail, mystery surrounds the arrival of the home-made 'AT-ST' from the film saga near Ashburton.

The stunning prop, which appears to be around 15 feet tall, will have already been seen by thousands of commuters and holidaymakers. Despite being perched near the entrance to Westcountry Storage Solutions, they swear it's not theirs. What IS the Star Wars prop on the side of the A38?

"Now you can find out.” Music will be provided by a familiar face: RX-24, the former droid pilot featured in the Star Tours attraction before its 2011 update, has taken on a new role as the cantina's DJ. This is the … [Read more...] about Disney’s Star Wars: Galaxy Edge to include Oga’s Cantina
