7/29/17 Star Wars Land Update
Update as of July 25th.
Looks like Star Wars Land in Anaheim is very close to "topping out". Cast is signing the steel beam at the highest point of the new land.

July 21st Update
The 50-foot-wide model shows off the never before seen planet. Though a few placards mention some details about objects and characters you’ll find on the planet–including musical instruments and an Ithorian–this display is all about the visuals. There’s a Resistance base on the left side of the land, as well as an X-wing and an A-wing. Over on the right side of the land, you’ll see a First Order flag and a parked TIE fighter. The E-ticket Millennium Falcon attraction is tucked away on the back right, while the other E-ticket attraction that puts guests in a fight between the First Order and Resistance is on the left of the land.
And speaking of that E-ticket attraction, this First Order Fleet Transport appears to be a ride vehicle (when I asked an Imagineer if it was a ride vehicle, he responded, “Do you think it looks like a ride vehicle?”).
This model is specific to Disneyland (though Hollywood Studios will be similar) and features three entrances. The left entrance by Critter Country will take you to Resistance territory, while the far right entrance in between Fantasyland and Frontierland heads into the First Order area. The middle entrance from Frontierland could lead into more neutral territory.
