Galaxy’s Edge has so many shops, big and small, with strange goods for sale and even stranger details. If you visit the Den of Antiquities, you’ll find one of my favorite details within the shops: shopkeeper Dok-Ondar’s pets.

First, in the muggy water tank, you’ll see his ollopom, Ollie.

Dok Ondar's Pets

Here’s his official bio from the Disney Parks Blog:

Sometimes mistaken for plants, ollopoms are gentle aquatic rodents found in the Gungan swamps of the planet Naboo. Naboo is the home planet of Padmé Amidala, as well as the Gungan Jar Jar Binks from “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.” You can find one of these fascinating creatures of disguise, Ollie the ollopom, bobbing in the water when visiting Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities. Ollie was a gift from Hondo, who found it in an unmarked cargo.

Across the den, you’ll see his sarlaac, Simpi.

And here’s Simpi’s bio, also from the Disney Parks Blog:

This infant sarlacc, named Simpi, may seem adorable to some, but this creature is the same type of carnivorous giant seen in the sand pit in “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.” Growing up to 100 meters long, the massive mouth of these sarlaccs can turn someone’s good day to bad if swallowed whole! Dok-Ondar keeps this little sarlacc (procured by none other than Han Solo and Chewbacca as told in the Marvel Star Wars comic series Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge) in a special tank that simulates arid atmospheric conditions.

Next time you visit Ollie and Simpi, tell them I said hi!
