RX-24, also known as Captain Rex, is a quirky and lovable droid who gained fame as the pilot of the StarSpeeder 3000 in Disney Parks' original Star Tours attraction. He is a talkative and enthusiastic RX-series pilot droid that is responsible for taking fans ona tour through the galaxy. Voiced by Paul Reubens, RX-24 is a beloved Star Wars character for Disney fans who have explored the galaxy with his through Star Tours. Despite his occasional navigational errors, Captain Rex made him a memorable character, but sadly, in Star Tours: The Adventures Continue, RX-24 was replaced by a slightly more iconic droid, with C-3PO taking up the role of the pilot.
However, his fun was not over, as he later found a new role as a DJ in today's widely popular Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge.

This special version of Rex will also include lights and sound functions as well as button-activated character phrases.
