I thought I would post this info here. I know there are a couple of Star Wars lovers on the board (including our family). My kids are going to love this.

Josette---- see below

As we previously reported, there is a "Build Your Own Lightsaber" kiosk open at the Once Upon a Toy store at Downtown Disney Marketplace. Guests can build custom Star Wars lightsabers with thousands of unique possibilities. The experience takes guests through nine steps in which they choose every part of their lightsaber, including the color of the blade, sleeve rings, hilt sleeves and ignition switches. Each lightsaber features authentic Star Wars sound effects, and guests can select colored crystals and filters to cast the legendary glow of the lightsaber blade (purple, green, red or blue). From the start, guests opt for a Jedi or Sith lightsaber, with bins of custom parts available for each order. Guests can create their very own design or follow instructions to replicate lightsabers used by such favorite Star Wars characters as Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader. Each electronic lightsaber features specialized lights, sounds and vibrations. Once complete, guests proceed to checkout where they receive batteries to power up their creation and a store-exclusive Jedi or Sith pin. No matter how elaborate the design -- guests can even create the double-bladed lightsaber like the one made famous by the evil Sith apprentice, Darth Maul -- each completed lightsaber is $19.95.

My dh now wants one. LOL He is such a big kid. I don't know how we're going to get it home on the plane though.

I agree... my Dh is already planning how many he is going to make... I wonder if there is a way to ship these home... Surely they would get broken on the plane...if it's not considered a weapon - lol.....hmm... gotta figure out how to get these home now....

Wow, both my boys would be drooling if they read this! Definitely a "last day of the trip" activity, I don't think I want to be in a hotel room w/ two of these things! Thanks for posting, we'll check it out in November!
