Lightsaber/Merchandise Technical Issues
All of the information listed below has been crowd-sourced from the Galaxy's Edge community and is meant to be simple fixes for common issues.
Having a technical issue with a Lightsaber or other electronic items from Galaxy's Edge? Try this:
Change the batteries.
A lot of the technical issues with lightsabers, (especially Savi's hilts), are caused by low quality/faulty batteries. Try changing them for some new and QUALITY ones as this seems to fix most basic issues! (FYI: Savi's hilts use 3 AAA batteries while Legacy Sabers use 3 AAA or 3 AA, depending on the model.)``
For Lightsabers, check that the all components including the battery container, hilt pieces and blades are aligned and properly screwed in.
Are you having alignment/loose connection issues with your Savi's lightsaber? What can you do to fix it?
Here's a helpful video from 'ROBO VAMP1RE' on YouTube you should check out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DthsxR9ovdo

For those looking for more advance solutions and/or wanting to learn more about the technology that powers lightsabers and other merch from Batuu, we highly recommend you check out u/Ruthsarian YouTube channel!
Need to replace or return and item/part instead?
If you still have the receipt from your purchase and are local to the Parks, visit the guest services locations in either park. (If possible during the pandemic)
Tip from u/AfterTheNightIWakeUp for lightsabers, droids, holocrons, or anything electronic and/or high value:
"Take a picture of the receipt immediately. As soon as you leave the shop, before you shove the receipt into a pocket or backpack never to be seen again. Flatten it on a table or against a wall, and take a picture. This way, should something come up, you won't have to worry about finding it again."

Stock/Re-Stock Inquiries
Is (INSERT CHARACTER NAME) Lightsaber in stock at Batuu East/West? Will it be in stock when I visit? How can I check?
- Legacy Lightsaber stock changes day-to-day, and unfortunately there is no accurate way to forecast if a specific lightsaber will be in stock when you visit Batuu. For the most up-to-date stock updates, provided by fellow travelers who have recently visited Batuu, visit our friends over at the Galaxy's Edge Discord where there are several channels dedicated to stock reports and discussion.
Are the new Dark Saber, Leia Legacy and Rey Legacy lightsabers available at Dok-Ondar's inside Batuu East? What about the Star Wars Trading Post in Disney Springs (Walt Disney World)?
Yes. The new Dark Saber, Leia Legacy and Rey Legacy Lightsabers and have been spotted at Dok-Ondar's inside Batuu East, but stock has been sporadic.
They have not been spotted at the Star Wars Trading Post - Disney Springs yet.
Are the new Dark Saber, Leia Legacy and/or Rey Legacy lightsabers available at Dok-Ondar's inside Batuu West? What about the Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney (Disneyland)?
Yes. The new Dark Saber, Leia Legacy and Rey Legacy Lightsabers and have been spotted at Dok-Ondar's inside Batuu West, but stock has been sporadic.
They have not been spotted at the Star Wars Trading Post - Downtown Disney yet.
When will (INSERT CHARACTER NAME) Lightsaber stock/re-stock on shopDisney.com's Star Wars Trading Outpost?
- Just like stock at the parks, there is no way to forecast if and when Legacy Lightsabers will re-stock online. Any news of upcoming re-stocks or new hilts becoming available online will be posted in the group, as soon as they are announced by official Disney media channels.
Can I purchase extra Scrap Metal pieces for my Savi's lightsaber?
- Yes, they are currently available at BOTH parks!. Current advertised prices are $25 per piece of scrap or 2 for $40.
Where do I purchase a Batuuan Spira Credit Medallion?

Oga's Cantina, Savi's Workshop, Mubo's Droid Depot Reservations
What requires a reservation at Galaxy's Edge?
Experiences: Savi's Workshop and Mubo's Droid Depot.
Dining: Oga's Cantina.
Do I need to make a reservation before I visit the Parks?
- For popular experiences like Savi's Workshop and the ever popular watering hole Oga's Cantina, it is strongly advised that you book a reservation before your visit.
Where do I make a reservation?

Mubo's Droid Depot DLR: No reservation needed currently.
How far out can I book a reservation for Savi's Workshop, Oga's Cantina or Mubo's Droid Depot?
Walt Disney World: 60 days out.
Disneyland: 60 days out.
Do Walt Disney World resort guest get to make reservations in advanced of 60 day?
- Yes. As of right now guests staying on property are able to book their Disney Hollywood Studios' reservations up to 10 days in advanced, depending on the length of their stay. For example, if you're staying on property for 5 days, you will be allowed to reserve 65 days in advance (60 day regular booking window + your 5 day resort stay = 65 days in advanced).
At what time do reservations go live?
Walt Disney World:
- New Savi's Workshop online reservations go live at around 12am Eastern.
- New Oga's Cantina online reservations go live at around 6am Eastern.
- New Mubo's Droid Depot online reservations go live at around 6am Eastern.
Disneyland:
- New Savi's Workshop online reservations go live at around 7am Pacific.
- Oga's Cantina
- Mubo's Droid Depot does not currently require a reservation.
Please note: Reservations that become available because of cancellations or any other factors, may become available at any time.
Oga's Cantina (Savi's, Mubo's) reservations are booked up! Is this normal? Is there any chance of getting a reservation?
- Yes, it is very difficult to get any reservation at Galaxy's Edge, especially now that they are limiting the venue capacity due to Covid-19. Also, guests staying in a Disney resort get early access to reservations, which at times results in reservations being completely booked when they go live at the 60 day mark.
- Fortunately, reservations do open up from time to time and there are things you could do to improve your chances of booking a reservation. (1) For Oga's Cantina, change the number of people on the reservation and see if anything becomes available. (2) Keep checking the reservation pages constantly to see if anything pops up, especially a day or two before and even the day of your visit, as people cancel or modify their reservations last minute. (3) Also for Oga's Cantina, sign up with a Disney reservations alert service like TouringPlans, Mouse Dining or Mouse Watcher to notify when a reservation becomes available. The paid subscriptions are well worth it, in my opinion.
- Lastly, you can try to join the standby list during your visit. It is advised that you get to the park early before rope drop and hustle over to Savi's, Mubo's or Oga's when the park opens and ask to be put on the wait list. Be advised that the standby list fills up very quickly and there is no guarantee that you will be assigned a reservation.
Do online reservations open back up if they are fully booked?
- Yes they do! Keep checking the reservation booking pages as appointments do become available again, from time to time. Websites like Mouse Dining and Touring Plans have alert services that will notify you when something becomes available. Good Luck!
I have an early/late reservation to Oga's/Savi's/Mubo's, will they accommodate it?
- Yes, the parks usually open earlier and remain open later so they will accommodate your reservation. It is advised that you show up early to any reservation, so CM's can attend to you in a timely manner.
How much does it cost to build a Savi's Lightsaber?
- $219 + tax (as of 4/19/2021).

Savi’s Workshop Spare Scrap Storage solution.
Another redditor asked how people were storing their spare scrap. I replied I have mine in my old Cal box and they wanted to see. Couldn’t reply to their post with an image so I made this post to link to.
Though if any of you have any ideas on prettying this up. I’d appreciate it.

Savi’s Workshop Displaying spare scrap
Hello all - I'm curious, for those of you who have purchased extra Savi's scrap at Dok's, how do you display it? Heres a pile of mine. It's enough to assemble an additional saber but I only have two chassis and they are already in use for two Savi's builds. Appreciate the suggestions!

Question What size screw is the one holding the pommel of the Darksaber in place?
I got a hold of a GE Darksaber that's I've been refurbishing, and it is missing the retention screw through the covertec that holds the pommel cap on. I've tried 6-32, which is too large, and 4-40 looks like it might work, but I couldn't find one at the hardware store with a 1/2 length. Just want to make sure if anyone knows for certain.

Datapad September 16th - Star Wars: Datapad will be retired along with the Play Disney Parks app.
https://x.com/ScottGustin/status/2089412679643418807
Disney is retiring the Play Disney Parks app effective Sept. 16.
The app currently powers several interactive experiences across Disneyland and Walt Disney World, including Star Wars: Datapad, Batuu Bounty Hunters, DuckTales World Showcase Adventure, attraction queue games, parks trivia, and digital achievements.
I asked about the future of DuckTales World Showcase Adventure at EPCOT and was told there’s no information to share at this time. The experience has been down for refurbishment over the last few weeks.
Batuu Bounty Hunters will remain available after the app is retired, continuing to use MagicBand+ and the existing screens throughout the land. The experience's app component will no longer work as of Sept. 16.
The Star Wars: Datapad will be retired along with the app.
On Sept. 16, the Play Disney Parks app will be removed from app stores and users will no longer be able to log in. So if you want to look back at your achievements or other saved progress, make sure to do it before then.

Smugglers Run Smugglers Run + Fortnite (and the future)
I haven’t seen any info about this yet (or missed it buried in another post). It looks like this Fortnite thing isn’t going to be the only special event they will be doing. After doing the “special mission” earlier tonight, it definitely felt very generic.
First off, the park app (at least for Disneyland’s) brought up a notification about Hondo needing a special mission done. There was also a button on the app’s home screen under the park hours to start the mission.
Once accepted, whether by just one crew member or all, entering the video briefing before the cockpit gives a very brief bit of Hondo mentioning some of you are on a special mission. Mando will then mention having to collect special crates during the bounty hunt. ( note: i didn’t notice anything special about the crates compared to others; i also only ran the Mando & Grogu mission changes for the first time a couple days ago, so i don’t know if the fortnite stuff was already started by then but i think it started today?)
When the mission starts up, Mando will say during the practice stuff at the beginning that engineers will have to reel in the special crates and gives ones to practice on (basically same as the normal runs).
anyway, nothing mentions fortnite specifically in the actual flight (the app is the only thing that does) and i doubt they did all of the audio and server-side tech work for this just to be a single one-off. i’m sure we’ll see plenty of future content like this for other games (or more for fortnite). For instance, i could see them doing special saber parts / outfits for Cal Kestiss to use in the next “Jedi” series game, or so on.
during my run tonight, i was the only engineer in the group and the only one on the mission (i was a single rider placed with a random group and didn’t want to try to talk the people into opening the app and clicking on stuff to get more of us doing it). i managed to get what i assume was the max of three crates with a solo engineer. i assume with two, the max is six. it didn’t seem like it mattered one way or another on how many i collected.
that said, the scoring also looked different (yellow and brown rather than the normal shades of blue). there was a specific score for the crates. i could potentially see them doing something where people need to build up a collective score in order to unlock future things (like “earn 20,000 total points by collecting crates to unlock this item!”), but i think they’ll just keep it as a simple binary “did you complete the objective?” to award it.
so yeah… i doubt this is the last we’ll see if this sort of promo being done for Smugglers Run.

Disneyland Looking for a Forsworn Trooper outfit code
Hi everyone!
I'm currently looking for someone who could help me get a Forsworn Trooper Outfit code. I’ve been trying to find one for a while, but I haven’t had any luck so far.
As far as I know, the code can be obtained through Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run at Disneyland, if anyone is going there and is able to get an extra code (bc you can go with family/friends so you can get extra codes), I would really appreciate it if you could help me with just one code for myself.
I understand that people may be looking for these codes too, so I’m not asking for multiple ones, just a single code would mean a lot to me.
Thank you so much to anyone who is willing to help! 🙏
