The “free” collectibles in Disneyland’s new Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge that didn’t have a price tag and weren’t nailed down have found their way to cyberspace with many of the five-finger discount items showing up on the secondary market.

A simple search for “Galaxy’s Edge” on the eBay online shopping site reveals a slew of purloined items that probably should not have left the Black Spire Outpost village on the Star Wars planet of Batuu, the setting for the new 14-acre land at the Anaheim theme park.

Other resourceful Galaxy’s Edge visitors simply took more of the free Star Wars stuff than Disneyland might have anticipated or expected. As a result, many of the pilfered and hoarded souvenirs are no longer available in the new Star Wars land.

Gone are the Galaxy’s Edge maps and Docking Bay 7 sporks that are likely not to reappear in the park or the land. It’s always possible they were intended as grand opening swag. Or maybe new shipments of the popular keepsakes are bound for Batuu.

Disneyland declined to comment on the missing Galaxy’s Edge items now showing up on unauthorized resale sites.

You can’t say it was totally unexpected. That’s what happens when you invite a bunch of scoundrels, smugglers and space pirates to a galaxy far, far away. They rob you blind.

Disneyland likely isn’t thrilled that some bar patrons took dozens of Oga’s Cantina coasters to resell online for $10 apiece. The graphically stylish coasters have sayings written in the Star Wars language of Aurebesh.

Sound The gallery will resume in seconds

The laminated menus for OgaÕs Cantina started showing up on eBay for $40 during the Disneyland employee previews before regular visitors were even allowed into the park. OgaÕs employees now hand out the ragged-edge menus more selectively and collect them more quickly once youÕve placed an order.(Staff photo)

The drink coasters at Oga’s Cantina in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge have already proven a popular collectors item at Disneyland.



Most people don’t need 20 maps when they enter the park. But if you can sell the Galaxy’s Edge keepsakes for $6 a pop, then the maps might look more like crisp dollar bills piled up at the front gate. The colorful guides showed the layout of Galaxy’s Edge and included descriptions of the attractions, shops and restaurants.

It didn’t take a criminologist or an economist to figure out that the tubs filled with super cool Star Wars sporks left on the counter in Docking Bay 7 wouldn’t last very long. Sellers are asking as much as $80 for the futuristic-looking metal spoon-forks with angled tines. More traditional metal and plastic forks are offered now with meals in the counter-service restaurant.

The color-coded flight crew cards assigning visitors to pilot, gunner and engineer positions on the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run attraction are fetching as much as $20 online. Flight crews are called by color while they wait in the hold of the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy.

What constitutes thievery? If a Disneyland employee hands you something without a price tag on it are you obligated to give it back? Most people would agree that keeping a theme park map as a souvenir is OK, but taking restaurant silverware is stealing. It appears plenty of Disneyland visitors are stepping over that grey line.

The wildly popular Oga’s Cantina has been the hardest hit.

The postcard-sized cards visitors receive when they return to join the cantina’s virtual queue are now showing up on eBay bundled with packages of other Galaxy’s Edge loot. Oga’s name is spelled out on the card in a stylish Aurebesh font. Hosts are supposed to collect the cards as patrons enter the bar.

Oga’s has begun stationing an employee at the exit to make sure the interstellar glassware that the cantina’s alien cocktails are served in don’t walk out the front door. Bartenders will trade the emptied $32 to $42 souvenir mugs sold in Oga’s for a boxed and bagged glass for easier carrying. Alcoholic beverages must be consumed inside the first Disneyland bar open to the public.
