food IS a theme park
It is a good time to be a Star Wars fan!
Which Lightsaber Would You Choose?
Recently, we celebrated May the 4th (a.k.a. Star Wars day) with some awesome discounts, special food, and some epic lightsaber hilts. And now a NEW legacy lightsaber hilt has arrived in Disney World!
Did you know you didn’t even have to visit Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to get the full Batuu experience?
You can visit Batuu from home in VR!
You can actually visit Batuu and explore it further in the Star Wars: Tales From The Galaxy’s Edge virtual reality game! The game puts players in the role of a droid repair technician who has crash-landed on the planet. It expands the story of Black Spire Outpost with new characters and locations.
Hello from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Holiday Gertie at Hollywood Studios
So what’s new since the last time we were here? Let’s check out the updates!
Lightsabers have become popular souvenirs for guests visiting Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. And the Legacy Lightsabers at Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities have become hot ticket items!
Lightsabers
The Legacy Lightsabers are replicas of lightsabers held by some of the most famous Jedi in the galaxy, including Ahsoka Tano, Cal Kestis, Luke Skywalker, and more! But today, we channeled the Dark Side of the Force and held the lightsaber of Darth Tyranus himself, Count Dooku!
Halloween is officially in the rearview mirror and it’s ALREADY beginning to look a lot like Christmas in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Toy Story Land
We stopped by Disney’s Hollywood Studios to see what new additions have made their way to the park since our last visit. So, let’s take a look at all of the merchandise, holiday decor, and transportation updates from Hollywood Studios!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios is home to interactive experiences that allow you to build your own droid or create your own lightsaber.
Sith Holocron with Force Guidance Crystal
Well, Disney just upped the ante with a NEW way to customize your lightsaber and holocrons! The kyber crystal is the force behind any lightsaber and holocron. At Galaxy’s Edge, you can choose the color of your kyber crystal to fit your mood and display what side of the force you represent. Are you on the Dark Side or a Jedi fighting with the Resistance? You can represent your choice with kyber crystals. The crystals customize your lightsaber AND allow you to interact with a holocron!
Whether you’re a fan of Ahsoka Tano’s white lightsabers, or you’re looking to own a lightsaber modeled after the ones owned by a Skywalker, there are lots of lightsaber hilt designs available at Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
Ahsoka Tano White Lightsaber Hilts
But, now we’ve got word about TWO new lightsabers coming to Dok-Ondar’s, and one is particularly unique!
If you’re trying to live out your own Star Wars story in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge or from the comfort of your own home, then you’ll probably want a lightsaber of your very own.
Legacy Hilts
One spot in Galaxy’s Edge will soon carry some very special lightsabers that are the first of their kind. Fans of Ahsoka Tano and Star Wars: The Clone Wars: you’ll definitely want to check this out.
We realize the Black Spire Outpost is situated on a far-away alien planet, but things took a truly bizarre turn on Batuu this morning!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Hollywood Studios
