Disney4me Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Curious as to what you’ll find when you step inside Dok-Ondar’s Den of Antiquities in Black Spire Outpost? Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Then join us as we explore the artifacts, relics, ancient tools, and more that are tucked into each and every corner and crevice of Dok-Ondar’s Den in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge! Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities The Ithorian, with his reputation as the “gatekeeper” of the black market in the Outpost, has packed his den with items of mystery and intrigue. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Is it a jewel you seek? A statue of one of the characters whose stories you’ve heard in the legends of the galaxy? Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities A lightsaber? One of the rare kyber crystals? Or perhaps an item that once belonged to a Jedi or Sith? Lightsabers Well, it’s quite possible that you’ll find what you’re searching for somewhere in Dok-Ondar’s collection. (How his collection was amassed? Well, those are tales Dok keeps to himself.) Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Of course, you’ll need to set aside some time to explore the location and pick out your galactic goodies first… The circular, two story setting is revealed after you enter an automatic door and choose whether to go left or right around the wall that first faces you. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities The downstairs area provides the shopping space. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities While the upstairs is lined with creature taxidermy and other-worldly knick-knacks. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities In fact, the Arc of the Covenant is up there, too, I’ve heard tell. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities All the while, Dok-Ondar sits in the corner at his desk. And while the bars might indicate that he keeps to himself, that’s not actually the case. Dok Ondar When Dok-Ondar gets upset, you’ll know it, because you’ll hear and see him. Dok Ondar That said, can you interact with him? Not so much. Though Dok-Ondar is known for driving a hard bargain, we didn’t have any success bartering with him. Based on what Disney had originally shared, we thought you could almost converse like a “Turtle Talk with Crush” situation, but it’s not. It’s more like you can chat with the Cast Member stationed near Dok-Ondar. But overall, the store is still way cool. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities And at Star Wars Celebration Chicago, Disney Imagineers shared that no matter which Star Wars era most speaks to you, you’re more than likely to spy an Easter egg or two — or more — in honor of it throughout the shop, so keep your eyes peeled for more than just the shop’s stock for sale! Antiquities And now, as for Dok-Ondar’s famed antiquities… Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities The merchandise sold here is primarily high-end. (Basically, be prepared for some sticker shock from Dok). For just a few examples… Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities While this shop isn’t an outfitter, per se, you will see items like Jedi robes and even Princess Leia’s white outfit for around $200.00. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities These are no mere toys. From wall art to statues of Sith and Jedi, you will likely find a tribute to those you’ve heard about in the legends of the galaxy… from both the Light and the Dark Side. General Grievous Mask Imperial TIE Fighter Helmet Darth Vader Artwork And there’s more everywhere you turn inside the Den. Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Dok Ondar’s Den of Antiquities Legacy Lightsabers The lightsabers here are not customizable, as are the lightsabers you can build at Savi’s Workshop. Lightsabers However, if you dream of carrying a pair of Ahsoka Tano’s lightsabers or that of another Star Wars character (Kylo Ren, Darth Maul, Darth Vader, Mace Windu, and each of Luke Skywalker’s lightsabers among them), you may find it here among the collection of Legacy Lightsabers! Lightsabers Lightsabers Lightsabers You can also pick up accessories for your chosen Lightsaber including carrier bags, belt clips, and display cases. Holocrons The Den is also where you’ll find the Holocrons perched on the opposite side of the wall which you faced upon entering. Holocrons You may choose a Jedi Holocron cube or a Sith Holocron pyramid. Sith Holocron Fun feature: if you choose to put both together, you’ll hear from both sides as they battle, and even hear from Bendu. (“The light and the dark. I’m the one in the middle. The Bendu.“) From the Holocrons, you’ll hear voices speaking the ancient wisdom and history of the Force, or messages of the power of the Dark Side, accordingly. Holocron and Kyber Crystals And those voices are ones you already know. For instance, I purchased a Jedi Holocron. On its own, it is $50.00 (as are the Sith pyramids) and comes with a USB charging cord. Jedi Holocron The blue Holocron as it comes on its own presents the voice of Master Obi-Wan Kenobi — “Trust in the Force” — when you turn the corners of the cube and press on the designated areas. Jedi Holocron You’ll hear advice or encouragement such as, “We must persevere and, in time, a new hope will emerge.” BUT! Perhaps you’d like your Holocron to share messages from other Jedi Masters, like Master Yoda. Well, you can purchase kyber crystals to insert inside the Holocron ($12.99 per kyber crystal). Green Kyber Crystal If you purchase and insert the green kyber crystal, for example… Insert Kyber Crystal … you’ll hear messages from Yoda while the Holocron emits a new, green glow. Jedi Holocron with Green Kyber Crystal White, purple, blue, yellow, and red are your other color choices. Here is my honest impression of my Holocron: it’s cool looking, and the voices and sounds are great. Jedi Holocron Label That said, mine doesn’t offer me an abundance of messages. It’s pretty repetitive. And the item itself doesn’t feel very sturdy — if it’s not handled gently, I have to wonder how long it will last. Jedi Holocron Price Tag So, unless your kid seriously can’t make it without one (and they WILL want one because — let’s face it — they do look cool), I can’t say it’s worth the $50.00 price tag. Still, serious Star Wars collectors are going to have a BLAST. Galaxy’s Edge Reusable Bags Remember, no matter what you purchase, you also have the option to buy a reusable bag. Galaxy’s Edge Reusable Bag How cool will you feel using THIS as your grocery bag back on earth (it’s exclusive to Galaxy’s Edge!)? Galaxy’s Edge Reusable Bag Dok-Ondar himself welcomes you (well, in his own way ) to explore the treasure troves of his Den of Antiquities! The question is: what are YOU hoping to find inside?
