For those who are new to Disneyland, the Premiere Shop used to be a shop as well as a GTE communications center. In the communications portion there used to be rooms with benches and lucite doors that you could close. They used to be speakerphone rooms. You'd simply put your coins in as any other regular pay-phone call and there would be no headset to use. Just talk at a normal voice and a microphone could pick up your voice. For a reference point of where they used to be. The exit for Rocket Rods dumps right into the shop where the phone booths used to be.

The reason that the exit of Star Tours is in the shop is because it is supposed to be like a "Duty Free" shop after your flight to Endor.

In the main area of the store, the Disney Characters in the displays above each large door to the store are wearing the same costume that the Cast Members in the store wear, complete with nametag (except they're wearing an older nametag).

Rumor has it that someone purchased the Han Solo in Carbonite display that used to be next to Darth Vader and a Stormtrooper in the Star Wars room above the entrance to the main area of the store.
