Hi, there!
Or rather, Bright Suns, Leon. We're so glad you stopped by! It sounds like you're planning a visit to a galaxy far, far away. You're sure to have Jedi-worthy adventures!
Building a customized BB-Series or R-Series astromech unit is a must-do experience for any
Star Wars fan. My young Padawans both visited
Droid Depot a few years ago, and they just loved registering their series, selecting parts from the conveyor belt, assembling their droid, and then watching it come to life as it was paired and activated! The very best part is that they could take their new sidekicks home to remind them of their incredible experience there. You ask an excellent question about your experience at Droid Depot. There used to be a merchandise delivery service available to Guests of Disney Resort hotels. That service is unfortunately no longer available, but I can tell you that we were able to have our droids held for us at Oscar's Super Service (near the entrance of Disney's Hollywood Studios) for a nominal fee. It didn't take us long to realize we couldn't carry two droids through the park with us all day! When we were ready to head back to our hotel, we just stopped by Oscar's Super Service, showed them our receipt, and picked up our droids. If you find that this service is not available at the time of your visit, not to worry. Lockers are available to rent near Oscar's Super Service, and you can safely store your droid in the largest size available.
Before you store your galactic sidekick, be sure to take advantage of the force-filled
Disney PhotoPass opportunities throughout the planet Batuu. The Disney PhotoPass Photographers know just how to include your droid in priceless photo ops!
I hope this was helpful, Leon. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! We'd love to help you plan a magical stay.
