Hi there, Rebecca! Welcome to
planDisney, and thank you so much for bringing us your question!
I'm very happy to hear that you made reservations to build your own droid and lightsaber at the
Droid Depot and
Savi's Workshop! They are both incredibly unique experiences that I'm sure you'll treasure for years to come. If you're a Star Wars fanatic like me, getting to design these iconic symbols from the movies is going to become one of your favorite memories from your entire vacation to the Walt Disney World Resort.
Rebecca, you're more than welcome to
rent a Large locker at the entrance of Disney's Hollywood Studios. These are 15.5" x 13" x 17", so you shouldn't have any issues placing your Custom Astromech Unit inside. However, you definitely won't be able to leave your lightsaber in there, since they are usually around 40" long. If you don't want to ship it home, you could always build it, return to your Disney Resorts Collection hotel, leave it there, and then come back to the park. Another option would be to rent a locker for your Astromech unit and carry the lightsaber around with you, since they also make great props for pictures! But if you really don't want to go back to your hotel, ship the lightsaber home, or carry it around all day long, your only choice would be to cancel your Savi's Workshop reservation.
If I were you, I wouldn't cancel this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Since your reservations are in the morning, I encourage you to take some time out of your day to return to your hotel and leave your items in your room before heading back. You could use this time to recharge and return to Hollywood Studios with extra energy! You could even leave around lunchtime and eat outside the park. I do that all the time!
I sincerely hope this helps, Rebecca. If you have any other questions before your magical vacation, please don't hesitate to reach back out to us again! Have a magical day!
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
