Can saxophones be made of something besides brass? Like wood, plastic, ebonite, or metal? Just curious.

They can be plated with gold, nickel, silver, etc...

There's the xaphone (sp.) that's made of wood...

I had a little toy one when I was little. It was about 8 inches tall. It was made of a white plastic and had four keys made of orange, green, yellow, and pink plastics. It actually played somewhat well (to a 4-year-old's perspective)...
