Star Wars Collectibles

Hasbro Pulse

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 Pulse

Hasbro's reputation for producing flawless Black Series re-creations of everyone's favorite helmets from the Star Wars universe continues with this incredibly 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. Note: This is set to be released July 6, but you can preorder it now.

Sideshow Collectibles

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.

Ultrasabers

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. 

Lego

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.

Hasbro

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.

Metal Earth

If you're looking for something a little more elegant than your average Lego kit, it's hard to go wrong with something from Metal Earth. There are a ton of different Star Wars kits available, presented as thin metal panels you can assemble into everything from Mando's Razor Crest with Grogu's pram to a collection of helmets like the Boba Fett one pictured above. 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.

OrbitKey

The ever-popular Star Wars line of Orbitkey key organizers now includes new options with Grogu, Mandalorians and, of course, Ahsoka Tano herself. 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. 

Enso Rings

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

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.
