food IS a theme park
Hello, Hollywood! Disney’s Hollywood Studios, that is!
Hollywood Studios
Let’s stroll through the glamour, the galaxy, and the backyard to see what’s new since the last time we were at 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!
Go ahead and apologize to your wallet in advance…Disney is hitting us with another spirit jersey and it’s COOL.

If you know us, you know we get excited about new spirit jerseys and Star Wars merchandise. Well, what if I told you that we’re getting BOTH today? That’s right, we’re just a few weeks away from the release of Season 2 of The Mandalorian and now we can snag a brand new top to watch it in.
Merch straight from Disney is great, but we’ve found some real gems from third-party stores, too!

We’ve seen some cute merchandise from Love Your Melon in the past and we are SO excited about what’s to come. Disney just announced that both Love Your Melon and Stance have new Disney face masks coming soon to their sites!
Heads or tails? Right now, The Droid Depot in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is selling both!
Droid Heads from the Droid Depot
Star Wars fans can create their own custom droid inside Galaxy’s Edge. Guests pick and choose from various parts colors then put their new friends together right in the shop. Usually, you get one shot at creating your droid. Once you pick a color scheme, there’s no turning back…until today! You can now buy individual heads and bodies at Droid Depot to swap out the pieces from your custom droid.
Hello from another GLAMOROUS day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood Studios
As always, it’s a beautiful day to stroll around this park, so let’s see what new since we last visited DHS!
Hey you! Yes, you! Put down that Ronto Wrap and tell the First Order to hang on for just a sec. We have some pretty wild Star Wars news.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Seriously, you might want to grab a seat for this. Disney World’s Star Wars-themed gift shops (on and off of Planet Batuu) have some pretty wild and wonderful wares. You can get R2-D2 merch, Lightsabers, and even a Porg! But, did you know you can also get…olive oil?
Ever wanted to grab some awesome merchandise from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge?
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Well, now you don’t have to fly to Batuu to get it! Recently, TONS of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge merchandise became available online, but lots of it sold out very quickly. Today, however, we noticed that many of the items are back in stock!
While some of us may have a pretty expansive collection of Minnie Ears, Star Wars fans might have a growing stock of lightsabers for BOTH the Light and the Dark Sides.
Lightsabers!
Although you can head to places like Savi’s Workshop in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to build your own, custom lightsaber, other places in Batuu like Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities feature pre-made Legacy Lightsabers instead. These non-customizable lightsabers allow guests to become one with the Force carrying around the sabers of heroes and villains like Kylo Ren, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Mace Windu and more!
Some of us are old enough to remember when Disney didn’t own Star Wars, but we have to admit it’s fun seeing Star Wars all over Disney World now, and we LOVE the attractions in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge!
Star Wars Resistance Clothing
Of course, there’s no shortage of Star Wars merch in the parks, too! And we just found a pair of lounge shorts that will bring the Force to the lower half of your body!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
