By any chance did you notice that in the photos on shop Disney, some had reversed the blades? This may have been fixed since I last looked at it, but the photos had the long blade in the short handle and the short blade in the long handle.
Disney has been slowly replacing the $35 sabers with the removable blade versions. I was at DL at the beginning of August and noticed the Obi Wan saber had the removable blade. How long ago it had been replaced, I don't know. The only ones that still have yet to be replaced are Luke, Vader and Kylo Ren. I got Mace's and Darksaber in the parks and Vader's on shop Disney when there was a sale.
The $35 one is the removable-blade version on Shop Disney. All the toy versions of this line (including the removable blade) are $40 in the parks (except Ahsoka, obviously). Obi Wan, Mace, Rey (Yellow), Ahsoka, and Darksaber have only ever been the removable-blade version. Luke (green) has only ever been fixed-blade. I keep hoping they'll make a removable blade version, but no dice yet. The Vader, Anakin/Rey, Yoda, and Kylo ones started out as fixed blade and are all still fixed-blade in the parks. They're only removable blade on Shop Disney. The Anakin/Rey one has been out of stock on the US site and on discount on the UK site for quite a while, so I've been hoping that meant they were goign to rerelease it with Anakin branding (now that there's the yellow one for Rey). But again, no dice yet.
I don't know if/when they'll go back up on Shop Disney online or if the $320 price would still be there if they did. But as of this morning they are available at both Disneyland and Disney World for $350. They're not limited edition, so they should be pretty easy to find at the parks for as long as they're still made. Even the short-lived ones are around for many months. For a character as popular as Ahsoka I'd guess ~2 years at least.
@@Fanporium I not from the us, can't go to the parks, I was planning for next year/2025, that's whay I wanted these cause the hasbro only has one hilt.
If you're in the UK, it's likely that Double Box Toys will have them soon at a reasonable import markup. If you're in Australia, I'm not sure if there's an equivalent importer. But if you go to the Galaxy's Edge Discord you can find "smugglers" who will buy it and ship it to you for a 20% markup. But yeah, it's pretty likely it will still be there next year or in 2025.
I'm also going to be reviewing several non-Disney versions of her sabers over the next few weeks. So you might find something you like better there that's even easier to acquire. Preview: czcams.com/video/49DrPDqD85E/video.html
So annoying they dropped in the parks before I get my pre order.
They dropped in Epcot and Hollywood
Yup! I just put up the full side-by-side review here: czcams.com/video/jb9RrzCxY_8/video.html

Yeah, I noticed that. I figure the photographer was just trying to get the. To fit in frame easier. But definitely backwards.

You know if they will be available again, and for the rest of the world?, because I dont see them anymore on the page
