As far as I remember, that (along with the AT-AT, skiff and Ewok Village) was not screen used. Just props to display infront of the ride. Though I think they did have the real holo table somewhere else in the park.
Incorrect. There was a speeder on the backlot tour...along with some other props. I have a different picture of it from the 1990's. I have to find it somewhere.
To confirm, there is an AT-AT outside the ride along with an Ewok village but these weren't unused screen props but purpose built to hide the wiring, lighting feeds, speakers, etc leading into the ride. On the backlot tour, there is a Sand Skiff as well as a Snowspeeder and possibly another prop from the movies.
@Gavin, Lucasfilm made a deal with Disney for the Star Tours ride which gave them permission to have various props (not to mention the great Indiana Jones Experience) at their parks. As there isn't a Fox park except in Australia, the studio is represented in both Disney Studios and Universal Studios' theme parks. As far as I know in any case...feel free to correct if I am wrong!
