A U.K. based robotics company and Disney have joined forces to create 3D-printed prosthetic arms that will get any kid (or even adult) excited.

Open Bionics has created three designs: a glittery arm inspired by Elsa from Frozen, a robotic arm designed to look like Tony Stark’s Iron Man and a lightsaber-themed Star Wars hand. As if that wasn’t cool enough, the lightsaber arm has customized LED lights and creates the iconic lightsaber “wooosh” sound.
