Check Out the "Real" Lightsaber Disney Came Up With

D'Amaro told the crowd, quote, "I have the coolest job in the world. I'm holding a real lightsaber."

Now the bad news: At the moment, Disney has no plans to sell these things. For now they're just being used by some of the actors at their parks and attractions.
