Tip for anyone going to Savi's Workshop for a lightsaber: The only kyber colors they offer are blue, green, red and purple. HOWEVER, if you stop in Dok Ondar's Den, they have alternate kyber crystals for sale (12.99GC/USD). Available Colors are all of the Savi's options, as well as yellow, orange and white. EXTRA TIP! Pay close attention to the pack of kyber crystals if you purchase one from Dok Ondar's, because according to a friend, random packs will have a BLACK Kyber crystal in them. Super Rare!

VulpisFoxfire I get where u are coming from but look at it this way as long as this theme is going on an adult that wears a robe can look like a someone who is part of the cast and works there so kids can confuse them with people who work there and for the safety of kids. lightsabers are allowed because those will probs not be a threat or danger because they aren’t disguised, so basically it’s so ur kid doesn’t get kidnaped lol

I disagree with DFB implying that you shouldn't eat the food there. Embrace the idea that you're on a different planet that doesn't serve burgers or chicken strips, and you'll enjoy exploring the unique twist on Earth foods in this land. If you like trying unique food items like the ahi tuna spring roll from Bengal BBQ in DLR, or the whole fried fish from Skipper Canteen in MK, or the Satu'li bowls from Satu'li Canteen in Pandora/AK -- all excellent dishes, btw -- then you'll feel right at home in Galaxy's Edge. I quite enjoyed both the kettle popcorn and the Ronto wrap (lunch version). The popcorn was lightly fruity-sweet, salty, and spicy all at the same time, and the Ronto wrap had an excellent sausage in it, and felt lighter/healthier and had more complex flavors than, say, a loaded hotdog from Award Wieners in DCA. Give them a try.

[@FaithfullyHazardous]

mbdbdbf I’ve watched pretty much every movie Star Wars has produced and they never had “Bright Suns” as a greeting.

Hate that you have to pay to get the lightsaber experience.. like in the harry potter land at universal there's the wand choosing ceremony but it's free to watch and you don't have to buy the wand.. like it does get me excited to buy one in the moment. But still, I feel like the galaxy's edge is one huge money pit.. so much of the experience involves needing to break my bank account 😭

Whoever buys a saber can bring people to watch. At Universal, they only select one at a time so its kinda different.

TomPreston6 no it doesn’t because literally nobody likes the new trilogy at all. There just shooting themselves in the foot.

TomPreston6 Just because it made a lot of money doesn’t mean people like it lol. The only reason why it made so much money is because Star Wars fans of the prequels and original trilogy. Plus, nowadays is different, more people are accessible to watch movies. So of course they’ll make money... The name Star Wars carries weight. And why did I say nobody likes the new trilogy? Because it’s true, it doesn’t take long to look online to realize how much people dislike the trilogy so far. And most people that I’ve none so far hated The Last Jedi. Why bother making a Star Wars park if you aren’t going to pay homage to what made Star Wars what it is? Where are the Empire, Clones, The Death Star, etc. There’s a reason this park is already dead 1 month after launch. It appeals only to the people who like the new trilogy, which is barely anybody on planet Earth

[@kq1534]

TomPreston6 1.) lol dude, you obviously aren’t a fan nor paying attention if you seriously think it’s just a “minority” of the fan base that hate the new trilogy. They took original characters such as Luke and absolutely shitted on his entire character. So much in fact that Mark Hamilton doesn’t recognize this “Luke”. 2.) Your comparing a major Star Wars release to a damn spin off, of course it’s gonna make less money... doesn’t take a genius to put two and two together lmao 3.) You defend this shitty decision because Disney wanted sell more merch for the new films, so it makes sense financially... but it doesn’t. If they wanted to make more bank, they would’ve created a theme park including all trilogies, bringing fans from all places dude. It’s been decades since the original trilogy yet there is still tv shows, movies and toy sets modeled after them. So saying the new trilogy made more money is completely false. 4.) and you mentioned that there were stuff from other trilogies... yeah references and other small things. That’s a pretty half-assed attempt. This park is only new trilogy based lol. And money doesn’t grow on trees dude. Who’s gonna buy a half-assed lightsaber for $200. 5.) another note to add to why Solo did so bad is because of this... - it’s a spin-off - The Last Jedi left a horrible wound in people’s heart - Han Solo didn’t look like Han Solo - uninteresting story really Let’s contrast the two movies, it’s something called PR. Force Awakens released, director played it safe and borrowed the plot from The New Hope. It wasn’t amazing but a pretty decent film nonetheless. After that, Rogue One released, again a pretty good but not amazing, Star Wars was pretty good PR wise. Then The Last Jedi released... and we all know what happened. God awful writing and split the fan base in god damn half. Made significantly less money than The Force Awakens. Then solo released after that cluster fuck and it did terrible, wow surprise right. Did you expect it to take off or something. If you piss on your audience, their not going to take it lightly.

[@JuniperMB]

@@jsoc2424 yes, but the outfits are actually anywhere from $300 to $1000...you have to buy each piece separately. The sizes range from kids to adults. The kids under age 12 can wear theirs in the parks. however, adults can't since kids might confuse them with actual employees and, if the kids got lost, might ask a stranger to help them. It could cause immense issues with pedophiles. Even knowing that Disney itself realized this problem decades ago when it first instituted the policy, they still created elaborate costumes for people to fully immerse themselves in Batuu, but the only problem is that Disney knows full well the customer CAN'T do exactly that. So, really, they are paying hundreds of dollars for a costume to wear at home. Obviously, that is not what people want to do at a Star Wars experience.

I'm with you, Vanessa. Plus, I'm American and can't keep up with all of the secret or code words. How are people from other countries who speak very limited English supposed to get thru this? However, this land looks amazing and fun, and true Star Wars fans will be in heaven. This vlog was super informative. Thanks, AJ!

[@chelseamparrish]

I’m a little shy when it comes to immersive experiences and audience interaction. I hope the stormtroopers aren’t too scary and the cast members are nice even if you ask them a dumb Earth question haha

Hot Dog! Great tips and reminders! Disneyland should add a Neverland themed land!

I mean, it's basically just a giant shop

This video...man....I had not EVEN thought about seriously visiting this place. Originally, I had thought in my head, "Okay, so there's a ship ride...woo-hoo...big deal! Now what?" Boy was I WRONG! A co-worker knows that I'm a professional photographer and LOVE themed shoots-after I saw this video...OMG!!! How could I NOT want to go visit now??!! Disneyland and I have not "seen each other" since I was in High School. I am now 61 VERY YOUNG years old, so...yeah, I've got a lot to see there!! Thanks so, so, so much for this informative and colorful video. Next place to visit? Disneyland...if they are still open, this coming Spring/Summer!! Thanks again!

[@JenKayna]

This is by far the best galaxies edge video that I have seen, and I’ve watched quite a few! Great job! I always appreciate the effort you put into your videos.

[@robertwallace4928]

You have helped my family and I do Disney with so little stress and so much enjoyment! Thank you so much and we love the videos. My wife and I are planning a trip to Galaxy’s Edge this winter and watching this made us so excited! Cheers!

[@jennifernielsen599]

Awesome as always, AJ! Thanks for all your hard work!!! I’m so glad you mentioned the smells by the falcon! I’ve been wondering about what smells might be pumped into GE!

Great video! One of the best descriptions of what's there and what to look for. Awesome job on camera angles and shots! Looking forward to future videos on your channel.

I wonder how the cast members here respond to food allergy inquiries. That's not something I like to mess around with, and I'm willing to lose the magic asking about ingredients.

[@lameduck1690]

The staff are willing to break character for safety or security.

[@FaithfullyHazardous]

They have allergy specific menus! And they drop the lingo to talk to you about your allergies

[@mec4760]

Newness is fluid, they'll update as feedback is acquired. What looks good on paper and feedback at planning phase may not pan out. Thanks for the info.

[@agletdontforgetit]

I don’t really get the super big theming. Like, it’s incredible! It’s awesome! But if I want to find something, I don’t want to deal with a cast member being “confused” when I want to find something.

[@gondorbunny]

It's meant to be totally immersive. If you want to find something, you'd probably be better off asking a fellow park visitor. Part of the point of being there is to be inside a fantasy, basically.

[@lameduck1690]

They still basically tell you where it is, they're just a bit coy about it.

[@gissneric]

I believe you lack patience if you're annoyed by that simple thing.

Something ridiculous is that I don’t like Star Wars but i really want a droid and a lightsaber 🤔

[@GHTRVSA]

I'm older now so I'm not big on theme parks. But Galaxy's Edge was just different, I felt like a kid again. I really like Star Wars and went to see the original in 1977 when it was released within a day of my 12th birthday. The original trilogy is by far my favorite but this is still great. So much detail went into this place and yes plan ahead which makes it easier. Building the lightsaber and just looking around the shops were my favorite things. Didn't do the Millennium Falcon but everything else.

My favorite experience, and frankly it's kind of small and not that big of a deal, was when I went up to a caster member and asked where the nearest refresher was. Guy didn't even bat an eye and pointed us the right direction.

[@think2086]

Here's my idea: Get Elon Musk to dig a tunnel from tomorrowland to Star Wars land.Theme it as a spaceport terminal in the S.W. universe. Add really neat conveyor belts, pushcarts, etc. Make the exit of Star Tours dump into it (maybe a subtle escape back to Tomorrowland too). The whole place is themed to the wazoo. A side tunnel built alongside it will be used for staff etc. Then you can use Star Tours as a second gate into Batuu, since guests will have to clear customs (show their passport) or be rejected back to Tomorrowland otherwise. Of course, the tunnel can be filled with shops and eateries if you want to go big.

[@carolynfiore3216]

This is my fav Disney KZbin channel and the only one I subscribe to. We’ve been to Disney over a dozen times, but never to the water parks. Please do a video on them. Besides theming, are the rides and features different? Are there decent places to eat? Any hints and hacks you’d love to share? Which resorts are closest? Thanks!!! You’re the best!

[@merichan27]

i would love to disneybound as jim from treasure planet and just mess with people. 'where are you from?' 'montressor. tiny planet a couple galaxies over.'

They do have kid friendly food at dock 7. Mac and cheese and chicken. Also this place is amazing. Only two thing we didn’t do was the lightsaber and droid. But totally worth it.

[@TaskForceMediaGroup]

So excited for Galaxys Edge to open here at WDW. I cant wait to get some vlogs of the new food items in the new land.

The ribs at galaxy’s edge was some of the best food I’ve ever had at Disney World

11:55 - $3.99 for bottled water? Is it imported from another galaxy? 14:58 - The Yue Nue drink will set you back only $42.00. Yikes.

[@kevinmoore2929]

You DO know there's free water bottle refill stations, right? And the Yub Nub is one of the drinks that comes with a souvenir glass? Also considering bottled water in other areas of the park runs closer to $5 in regular bottles....

[@coryjohnson7949]

Can you build the Light Sabers and ship them home like other Disney merchandise?

[@folkloricofairy]

Great question: i wonder this too!

[@natashatabert1506]

Is it me or does anyone else want the fuzzy Tauntaun now? I kind of just want to try it and make my mouth numb.

[@ShiningSakura]

if you want a numbing experience just try sucking on a sore throat lozenge... that will definitely simulate the experience. Normally you keep it at the back of your tongue to avoid numbing your whole mouth, but if you purposely keep it to the front and middle, that will do it for you.

[@TripNWithRed]

I am so glad that your videos are so detailed. This is by far the most informative video I have found. Thank you for the great tips.

[@nathanquino584]

I went to galaxys edge 1st day of cast member previews

[@reneeconstantino5635]

I agree with the order AJ recommended doing things. We learned the hard way. We were there May 31st. If you want to make a lightsaber, do that first. The wait time of the ride was 30 minutes (we were 1st 100 into the land for the 2-6pm group) which quickly increased to 2hrs 20 minutes later. The line for the ride decreased to 30 mins again 1hr before our time was over. So if you have a reservation after 8am, or your not the 1st in at 8am, I would recommend getting in line for the ride towards the last hour but right before the next group comes in (another group comes in on the last hour of your reservation).

[@StorytellerStudios]

I've watched multiple Galaxy Edge videos and yours is simply the best! Thanks! One question: Can you sign up for the Resistan....I mean The First Order there?

Do the "galactic credits" you earn on the app game actually count towards discounts on merch and food?
