If you’re a Star Wars fan looking for lightsabers in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World or Hollywood Studios in general, things are a bit complicated.

Two lonely little lightsabers

The small lightsaber building experience at Tatooine Traders is not available at the moment due to supply issues, and we’ve visited the park on several occasions and found that the Legacy Lightsaber supply at Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities has been low or nonexistent. The lightsaber building experience at Savi’s Workshop has also run into some snags with lightsaber cases no longer being available.

Will Disney World Use Virtual Queues for TRON and Guardians?

By Carly Terzigni Leave a Comment

UPDATE: Disney recently announced that Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind WILL be using a virtual queue when it opens on May 28th and that a standby line will not be available.

In an age where practically everything has gone digital, Disney has made strides to make one of our least favorite experiences — waiting in line for rides — go virtual. In doing so, they have introduced their Virtual Queue system, which hasn’t been widely adopted just yet but rather used for their most popular rides.

Rise of the Resistance

In Disney World, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in EPCOT previously used Virtual Queues. On the west coast, Disneyland’s Rise of the Resistance, as well as WEB Slingers: A Spider-Man Adventure at Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure also have used virtual queues in the past. But lately things with virtual queues have been CHANGING.
