shopDisney Update: Galactic Starcruiser Costumes Have Been Released

If you have reservations for the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser vacation package, and you’re sticking with your Disney vacation plans (unlike many of the Disney Guests who have canceled their reservations onboard the Halcyon), then there is a new treat for you to experience before your stay at the brand-new Disney and Star Wars destination! According to the Orlando Sentinel, exclusive new Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser costumes and outfits are available for purchase on shopDisney — but only Disney Guests who have reservations for the Galactic Starcruiser hotel experience can purchase this Galactic Starcruiser merchandise on the online Disney store.

 

Since Star Wars is known for its iconic aesthetic and its characters’ signature designs or styles, it is no surprise that the shopDisney Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser exclusive collection features clothing that fits in perfectly with the upcoming destination and its overall look. Being able to dress up as a Star Wars character is actually encouraged on Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser trips, in opposition to the rules against dressing up as characters in the Disney Parks, so Guests can definitely view the opportunity as a treat!

Dressing up in costume may also increase Guests’ ability to interact with the characters on the Halcyon, since Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser experience is meant to be a hotel with an immersive storyline that visitors join. The Star Wars Saber Trainer Tunic (which comes in sizes for kids as well as adults) would also be perfect for the lightsaber training adventure that’s offered in the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel vacation package!

The muted gray, silver, black, brown, and green tones in the clothing enhance the Star Wars styles that they have been directly inspired by, but these pieces of Galactic Starcruiser merchandise are also detailed nods to specific costumes in the Star Wars franchise. Fans of Princess Leia, Padmé Amidala, Senator Bail Organa, or Jedis will definitely find something appealing in this collection since several of the outfits (including the Princess Leia dress) are replicas of the actual outfits from the Star Wars movies!

 

It will be interesting to see if these shopDisney products serve as incentives to keep some prospective Guests onboard with their reservations. The cheapest item in the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser collection is a pair of black gloves costing $16.99, and overall the collection ranges between $59.00 and $149.99 when it comes to pricing. If this Galactic Starcruiser merchandise collection is ever available for any consumer, regardless of whether or not he or she has a reservation for the new Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser experience, it seems likely that it would sell out quickly!

According to the website, only “Guests with a qualifying Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser reservation” can buy these items, and those who have reservations for a qualifying Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser vacation package can buy the products either before their trip (with a maximum of 60 days beforehand) or 30 days after their journey on the Halcyon. It’s also worth noting that you’ll need to use the same email address from your Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser hotel reservation for your shopDisney login, in order to verify that you’re a Star Wars: Galactic Cruiser Guest who is eligible to purchase the clothing.
