Recently discussed at the Walt Disney Imagineering panel at Star Wars Celebration, Japan, guests will soon be able to chart a new path inside Savi’s Workshop — Handbuilt Lightsabers at Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort.
- This new, limited-time offering will be available on Planet Batuu starting May 4, 2025, while supplies last
- Guests will be able to build their own lightsabers from scraps that have been scavenged by different pirates throughout the galaxy and made their way to Batuu.
Reclaim and Reforge New Savi’s Workshop Lightsabers
Pieces of scrap from ancient battles, crashed ships, and other remains can be found all over the galaxy. To most people, it looks like junk, but to the resourceful Jedi, it may just be the key to constructing a new lightsaber.
In the new hilt theme titled “Reclaimed and Reforged,” guests will be able to build their lightsabers from scraps that have been scavenged from the distant reaches of the galaxy’s outer rim and have found their way to Batuu. When brought together, they form something entirely new — yet forever bound to the mysteries of the past.
Each guest’s story begins the moment they meet one of Savi’s Gatherers outside his workshop, where they will choose one available hilt theme for their experience. Although “Reclaimed and Reforged” is only available for a limited time, guests can still select from four other themes year-round inside Savi’s Workshop:
- Peace and Justice
- Power and Control
- Elemental Nature
- Protection and Defense
Once their selection has been made, guests will then enter the workshop to begin to assemble their hilt, where parts will be provided based on their theme and identifiable cloisonné pin. Pictured above are a few parts available from “Reclaimed and Reforged,” where each box of parts includes:
- 1 hilt
- 4 sleeves (pick 2)
- 2 emitters (pick 1)
- 2 pommel caps (pick 1)
- 2 sets of activation plates and switches (pick 1 set)
Once the hilt is completed and any unused parts are returned to Savi’s inventory, it will finally be time to connect the hilt to a lightsaber blade!
Whether the chosen kyber crystal makes your blade ignite red, blue, green or violet is entirely up to you — will you follow the ways of the Jedi, or harness the dark side of the Force like the Sith?
If you are ready to transform these scattered and reclaimed parts into elegant tools that symbolize the balance of the Force, here are a few things you need to know:
- Purchase is required, and reservations are highly encouraged for this experience at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland.
- The experience area is limited to the builder and two guests, where at least one person in the party must be age 14 or older.
