Is it worth building a droid at Walt Disney World in 2024?

Published 2024-01-20
Are you going to Walt Disney World for the first time, and you can’t wait to see Galaxy’s Edge in Hollywood Studios? One of the fun experiences to do is building your very own droid that you get to keep and take home. Is it worth it? How is the experience? What do you do with these droids once you get them home? And, how long do they last? We’ll answer these questions and more in this video.

Which Droid from the Droid depot in Galaxy’s Edge is faster?

    I did some repairs on a lightsaber And a droid that a family got when they were at Disney Star Wars. They had broken not long after they purchased it. I can't remember all the details but the Droid had a desoldered wire and if I remember the lightsaber had a burnt resistor or something along those lines..
  • Good morning, Jason. I feel it you can't pay enough for the memory. My daughter Zoey built her driod when galaxy's edge first open and we still play with it. He lives in the living room by the TV. Great chopper outfit as well.

    Great video. I have done both experiences, the lightsaber and the droid (both twice). I love both so much. Even if the droid just sit son a shelf it's still a really cool decretive item that you can look back and remember the time you built it. As a massive star wars fan, I always wanted my own droid and the face I own a B/R unit makes me happy even just to look at. I personally they are worth it. I also have painted mine too.
  • As someone who’s good at art I can’t wait to weather mine this year, and have an absolute blast. Any recommendations on how to save money on tickets for Hollywood Studios, I’m thinking of going to Disney World this year with my brother and sister but I’m trying to save money.
  • Going to Disneyland this Monday and will definitely build my droid!! Great video!! 🙏

    Hello! Great video! Thank you for sharing! We will be there in 2 days, I don't speak English but my daughter wants to build the droid. Could you help me with a few questions? 1 - How are the personality chips? I don't know which one to choose. 2 - What other options are available? Do you recommend any of them? 3 - Do I need to buy 2 for them to interact at home? 😳😳 Or can I just buy 1? 4- Is there an option to pay less by purchasing everything together? I heard that buying the backpack comes with a different chip if chosen in some way, but I'm not sure how that works. Thank you for saving me on this journey! I'm really scared of not understanding things there when building the droid and ruining my daughter's long-awaited experience.

    I really wanna get the BD Droid and a C Class Droid. I've been wanting these two so bad because I have plans to repaint them .sadly I won't be able to go to Disney Park anytime soon :(
  • That's unfortunate your red bb unit stopped working, but does that purple one with the white head still work? Also, what kind of precautions could I take with a bb unit to keep it maintained and working? This video was very helpful and provided some insight for me the next time I visit Galaxy's edge

    Totally worth it. I use mine a few minutes everyday. I already have 7
  • @FIDreams
    'Is it worth building?' Depends on how much money you want to spend. XD
  • Space fantasy is of Satan, sir. The Bible frowns upon such idolatry. 🙂JK. Thanks for sharing. I want Disney's character version. lol. I wonder how much that thing would actually cost.
  • @RomeoRuizMusic
    I’m confused. We just booked our Droid build for California Disney and it has us at $99. 🤔
