Gifts for People Who Love Star Wars
The official Star Wars store has several categories of items that would make good gifts for people who love Star Wars. These can be organized into five groups. The top-10 bestselling items range in price from the Senate Security Clone (as seen in the first episode of Clone Wars) for less than $10 to the Darth Vader Force FX Lightsaber with Removable Blade for about $130.

Toys
-
Action figures were among the first Star Wars toys to hit the market. You can buy them individually, such as the Senate Security Clone, or in case packs, such as the The Clone Wars '10 Case Pack W3 R2. There are also vehicles, including the Obi-Wan Kenobi Delta 2 Jedi Starfighter. Toys include the Darth Vader Robotic Arm, playing cards and Legos.
Things To Wear
-
Things to wear include humorous T-shirts --- for example the Robot Chicken Star Wars Boba Fett Shirt. Hats, such as the Imperial Death Star Officer Cap, are often a hit with Star Wars fans. There are ranges of clothing for kids, men and women. There are costume items available, including Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Obi-Wan Kenobi deluxe outfits.

Things To Look At
-
Things to look at include posters, fine art prints and animation cells. The Boba Fett Artist Portfolio is available, signed by artist Joe Johnston. Books and comics also make good gifts, especially autographed books. "A Pop-Up Guide to the Galaxy (Special Edition)," for example, is signed by author Matthew Reinhart. Kids' books include the "Watch Out For Jabba The Hutt" readers.
Collectibles
-
Just about everything with an official Star Wars provenance may be collectible in the future. However, there are certain items deemed to be collectibles right now, and these may appeal to people who prefer to take care of their Star Wars memorabilia rather than using it. Collectibles include busts, figures and model kits, prop replicas and statues, such as the Clone Trooper Premium Format Figure. Collectible convention items include the Super Japanese Collectible Ewoks Bearbrick Set.
Electronics Items and Other Gifts
-
Electronics items include the R2-D2 iPhone Hard Case with Sculpted Details, a top-selling item. Other electronics items include LucasArts video games for all the major platforms, as well as movies and music. Other items include school, office and art supplies. Included here are bags and backpacks, such as the C-3PO Bespin Back Buddy. There is even a Darth Vader Toaster, which will burn Darth Vader's image into your toast.
