Bright suns, Heather! Thanks for visiting planDisney.
While my little padawans carried their newly built lightsabers home as carry-ons in May of this year, we ended up shipping a pair of bulky helmets home that we'd purchased while visiting Batuu. There was no way they were fitting in a suitcase, and shipping from the parks was a super convenient option. I'm happy to walk you through how to go about getting your blade from a more civilized age shipped home!
After you've completed the immersive ceremony at
Savi's Workshop, take your lightsaber in its original carrying case along with your receipt to
Black Spire Surplus, which is located nearby. Speak with a friendly Cast Member at the register about shipping your blade home. Since you're domestic, you should be okay to ship! It took a few days for our helmets to reach us in Missouri, but it extended the magic when they did arrive. There was a lot of rebel activity in our house as they were fully tested out!
If you want to get some photos with your lightsaber before it's shipped off, stop by one of the
Disney PhotoPass locations in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. We waited until twilight, so my boys could really show them off in their photos. Find the closest talented photographer in the Disneyland mobile app by switching to "PhotoPass" at the top of the map.
May the Force be with you.
