Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Kyle. We're so glad you stopped by! It sounds like you recently had an epic adventure at
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. I'm sure it was Jedi-worthy!
I'm hoping we were able to get you the information you need while you're still visiting the Walt Disney World Resort. Handbuilt lightsabers can be shipped from the Walt Disney World Resort, but yes, typically a receipt of purchase is required to use Disney's ship-to-home service. Not to worry! Stop by
Droid Depot or
Dok-Ondar's Den of Antiquities at Disney's Hollywood Studios or
World or Disney at Disney Springs with your lightsaber. Explain your circumstances to a Cast Member and I'm sure they'll do their best to help you use Disney's ship-to-home service. If you're unable to ship your lightsaber, I will tell you that my son had no trouble flying with his lightsaber after one of our Disney vacations. Getting it through security at Orlando International Airport was super easy and so was storing it in the overhead bins on our flight home to Pennsylvania.
I hope this was helpful, Kyle. Please let us know if you have any other questions about the Walt Disney World Resort!
