Rebel base can be seen currently in Galaxy's Edge DHS. Trees have grown, and have also been affected by the two-night harsh freeze in Feb. Revealing the base's roof. This is actually the return (unload) platform of Rise of the Resistance.

Imagineering has been theming in full view of guests at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Including this recently opened shade structure in Galaxy's Edge. Poles started with clean paint, and have been steadily painted with Star Wars signature aging and weathering.

Some of the details of the new paint on the car at Rock 'n' Roller Caoster. It's been a very rare story to watch unfold. Imagineering usually rethemes backstage, and new theming was steadily done in full view of guests over weeks. Arrow in first photo at the hood ornament.

Seems like new painted graphics are complete on the car outside Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets. Could be a high-gloss, long-lasting, clear sealant will be applied next.
