In honor of the fifth anniversary of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge on May 31, 2024, Disney is releasing a new Ki-Adi-Mundi Legacy Lightsaber collectible box set.

The Ki-Adi-Mundi “Hilt of a Jedi” set will be available tomorrow at DisneyStore.com and from Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort.

A metallic cylindrical object is displayed in a padded, open wooden box with sand in the background.

The hilt comes packaged in a bespoke Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities box.

An open comic book lies on sandy ground, featuring colorful illustrations and text within its pages.

The box set also includes:

  • A special Disney Parks exclusive edition of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge #1 featuring the Cerean Jedi Master himself, as drawn by Star Wars artists Chris Sprouse (pencils), Karl Story (inks), and Rachelle Rosenberg (colors).
  • An individually numbered insert card featuring a quote inspired by Dok-Ondar, and the official Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge 5th anniversary logo.

A Legacy Lightsaber blade, sold separately, will illuminate blue when attached to the hilt.

May 31, 2024 marks the 5th year anniversary of the opening of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland resort. To celebrate the special occasion, we are excited to release ‘The Hilt of a Jedi’ limited edition box set. The set is designed to be deep in story as the wooden box features the symbol of Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities and is inspired by the story told within the comic book.

First introduced to fans in the 1998 Star Wars Legends comic “Prelude to the Rebellion, Part One,” and more famously known for his appearances in the Star Wars prequel trilogy and the animated series “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” Ki-Adi-Mundi’s hilt was acquired by Dok-Ondar when he purchased it from Jabba the Hutt. This latest addition to the Legacy Lightsaber hilt line is limited to just 6,000 units worldwide and is available for purchase starting tomorrow.

In the five years since Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened, 32 Legacy Lightsaber hilts inspired by fan-favorite Star Wars characters from around the galaxy have been released.

“The team has always worked hard to bring unexpected, unique, in-story merchandise to our guests,” said Hampton. “I have been a fan of the ‘elegant weapons’ that are Lightsabers my entire life and being a part of the opening team of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge was a dream come true.”

To celebrate the anniversary of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Hampton’s team has created a checklist of all the Legacy Lightsaber hilts, limited edition sets, and box sets that have been released so far. This poster, available to download, is perfect for any newer collectors or fans who may be new to the Legacy Lightsaber collectibles.

“We work hard so that the collectible Lightsabers we produce are as authentic as possible to the source material, whether that be film, animation, games or publishing,” says Hampton. “I’m so proud to still be a part of the team that is creating new, unique merchandise like the Legacy Lightsaber hilts.”
