The first-ever open world Star Wars game is here, and it’s fantastic. This original story is set in the Star Wars worlds we know and love with no shortage of easter eggs for fans to find and love. The action is great, the storytelling is fun, and if you’re in to that sort of thing you can pet every creature you find.
If that epic trailer for the upcoming series The Acolyte has you ready to add to your collection, Hasbro Pulse already has your back. Not only can you grab Jedi Masters Indara and Sol, but Knight Yord Fandar and Padawan Jecki Lon are available to add to your collection as well. And if you lean a little more to the Dark Side, the mysterious assassin Mae is rocking her awesome outfit and face wrap to go with her knife. More are expected to be available soon, but this is a killer start to what promises to be a wild new addition to the Star Wars universe.
Hasbro’s reputation for producing flawless Black Series replicas of everyone’s favorite helmets from the Star Wars universe continues with this weathered electronic model. The Nite Owl paint job is coupled with a light-up heads-up display and padding for a variety of head sizes. Whether you’re mounting it on a wall or starting a Mandalorian cosplay, this one is hard to say no to.
The Imperial murderbot that almost ended Mando’s journey in the season 2 finale is getting the Hot Toys treatment. These sixth-scale figures are always magnificently sculpted masterpieces, even if they are pricey.
There are a lot of different ways to get a lightsaber that feels real and is fun to swing around, but one of the best starter blades by a mile is made by the team at Ultrasabers. You can build something as inexpensive as $60 and as expensive as $300 before you add anything on, including a lot of personalization over sounds coming from the hilt and color of the blade.
If you want to have a genuinely fun lightsaber without breaking the bank or living near Savi’s Workshop on Batuu, you want something from Ultrasabers.
Just to be clear, not all Lego Star Wars sets cost north of $100. You can get plenty of more-affordable Star Wars toy sets, like the Clone Wars-inspired Duel on Mandalore for $35. These include Star Wars Lego minifigures — Ahsoka Tano with two lightsabers and Darth Maul with a double-bladed lightsaber — for action-packed duels.

On the opposite end of the price scale, Sideshow’s 16.5-inch figure is an incredible recreation of The Child if you’re looking for the ultimate Mandalorian collectible. At $380, it’s only for those looking to splash out for the Star Wars fan in their life.

Star Wars characters have been immortalized as posable action figures since 1977, and Hasbro’s Black Series 6-inch line has never been better. Some of the coolest Star Wars gift options include the Elite Squad Trooper from The Bad Batch and the Dark Rey from The Rise of Skywalker.

They’re all great little gifts to give to just about any Star Wars fan, and almost all of them can be had for under $30.

Star Wars Wearables
No other watch company is doing what Citizen is doing right now. Its collection of Star Wars-themed watches is regularly growing, and now exists in multiple styles. Whether you’re a Rebel at heart or you prefer the order and color palette of the Dark Side, there’s no shortage of great options. For my money, the best watch in the lineup is called Duel. It’s a great, sturdy design with only a basic set of features but looks incredible. It’s a nice looking watch, and that’s all it needs to be.
The ever-popular Star Wars line of Orbitkey key organizers now includes new options with Grogu, Mandalorians, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. A practical way to show your love for the franchise, these durable keychains will keep your keys neatly aligned in your pocket or purse. They’re also available in a ton of other styles for fans of the Light Side, the Dark Side and all the shades in between.
While Enso Rings are known for being practical by offering a safe and durable silicone alternative to valuable jewelry, they’ve also got some deeply nerdy street cred. The Star Wars line of Enso Rings got a little bigger with the addition of Jabba the Hutt, Endor and, my personal favorite, Wicket the Ewok. Enso offers a ton of different colors and styles for you to browse, making it very easy to find something personal for the Star Wars fan in your life.
Famous for being able to swap out different designs with simple magnetic additions, Pair Eyewear glasses are unique in just how many ways there are to personalize them. For $30 you can quickly pop on a fresh new color or design and totally change how your glasses match your outfit. With its new Star Wars collab, Pair Eyewear owners can now choose between three collections of designs to add to their collection. The Rebels set includes classic characters like Chewbacca, R2-D2 and C-3PO while the Dark Side collection offers up Darth Maul Red and Stormtrooper white and black among other designs. If you’re not really down with picking a side, the Mandalorian collection is here to offer some solid armored options as well as everyone’s favorite little green helper Grogu. Choose which design suits you best and just pop them right on to the front of your Pair Eyeware frames.
MeUndies makes a ton of different ways for guys, gals and nonbinary pals to show off their love for all things pop culture, but the latest in its Star Wars collection is particularly nice. You can enjoy Din Grogu hanging out just under your jeans for a pretty reasonable price, and in just about every size you can imagine.
One of the simplest gifts you can give a Star Wars fan is a new shirt. I can attest to receiving plenty over the years for Christmas, and it’s always nice to have a fresh stock of new Star Wars apparel, like this shirt featuring The Bad Batch.

Star Wars Kitchen & Home
There are posters, and then there are Displate posters. The company is famous for its slick, high quality art on sturdy materials but its newest Textra line takes things to a new level. As the name suggests, creative stamping on the metal canvas ads texture to the art, making it pop right off the wall with fun colors and reflections. And if you’re the kind of person to put art in places like kitchens or mud rooms, you’d be delighted to learn the metal canvas is easy to wipe down without damaging the art.
For those who enjoy showing off their love for Star Wars in more subtle ways, JoyJolt has you covered with its Deco line of glasses. Available as both a highball and lowball set, Each features a gold repeating pattern that won’t look like much more than a simple art deco design until you’ve got the glass in your hand, when suddenly you see the likes of Vader, R2-D2 and others. These glasses are surprisingly heavy at the base to reduce accidental spills, but be warned the manufacturer suggests hand washing to keep these in prime condition.
It’s sad to walk into a store and see Star Wars bed sheets and blankets that are only for kids. Adult nerds like fun bedding too, which is why Sobel Westex has launched the Star Wars Home collection. Whether you’re into the lovely blue Astromech theme above or you’d prefer something more Tattoine themed, this collection has what you need if your goal is to introduce some subtle nerd chic to your bedroom.
If you want a reminder of Hoth’s dangers on your living room floor, a wampa rug might do the trick. No actual wampas were harmed to make it, because they don’t exist.

Remember that card game Han and Lando are playing in Solo: A Star Wars Story? It’s called Sabacc, and this deck can be used to play both the galaxy’s greatest card game and you favorite traditional playing card games. This deck by Aquarius is slightly smaller than traditional Sabacc decks — like the ones sold at Galaxy’s Edge — but if you’re serious about your Corusant Shift, there’s always the premium decks available at Hyperspace Props, but shipping can take a while.

Star Wars Toys
While R2-D2 undoubtedly holds a special place in the hearts of many Star Wars fans, there’s another droid out there who wins the dubious honor of being the mouthiest and most willing to commit acts of violence. Chopper is beloved for his antics, and now this animatronic version can sit in your home and talk back any time it hears you speak up. This is an incredibly fun toy for any Rebels fan, and the kind of thing Chopper fans in particular have been begging for.
The only thing better than having a Grogu figure in your house is having one that can move and talk and play. The Galactic Snackin’ Grogu comes with a bunch of toys it can interact with, including an alien macaron and a bowl of soup to slurp on. And if it’s not interested in playing with its own toys, it will reach up and ask to be carried. These Star Wars toys are a cute addition to any collection and a great way to surprise guests.
We know R2-D2 has spent most of its existence taking care of Anakin and Luke, but who takes care of R2? You do, if you’re holding this new Tamagotchi. Keep it on your keychain and help out everyone’s favorite droid with whatever it needs — and enjoy the happy beeps in response.
Lola was a surprise breakout star from the Obi-Wan Kenobi series on Disney Plus and helped little Leia throughout her perilous journey. Now everyone can have a Lola of their very own, with posable panels, lights and sounds. It may not be the real thing from the show, but it’s probably as close as you’re going to get.
