Star Wars Christmas Gifts

With the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens on 17th December, Star Wars toys and memorabilia are sure to be huge sellers this Christmas, and for good reason -
every budding Jedi on the planet is excited about the release of this movie. There will be plenty of gifts to choose from if the force is strong in someone close to you, whether they're six or sixty.

Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

1. Official Star Wars Darth Vader Christmas Jumper

Nothing says 'Christmas' quite like Darth Vader in a Santa hat. The jumper is emblazoned with the message "I find your lack of cheer disturbing"
and we can't help but read that in Vader's menacing, robotic voice. This gift is fun, cosy, and ever so slightly threatening.

2. Sphero BB-8 Droid

If you feel like splashing a little more cash and you know someone who's always wanted their own droid, now is your chance to give someone their very own BB-8.
This cool little guy is controlled by your iPhone and he can transform videos into holograms, show expressions, and react to your voice.

3. Star Wars Episode VII Kylo Ren Awaken Single Panel Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set

Give your son or daughter's room a makeover this Christmas with Star Wars themed bedding. The Force Awakens, but not before it's had a good night's sleep under this cosy and super-cool duvet.
Plus, how about a Star Wars wall decal to match?

4. LEGO Star Wars 75105: Millennium Falcon

With this Lego set you can build your very own Millennium Falcon and re-enact scenes from the movies.
It comes with six figures from The Force Awakens, too - fun for little kids as well as really, really big kids.

5. Star Wars Where's the Wookiee Search and Find Book (Search & Find Activity Books)

This intergalactic version of Where's Wally makes a great stocking filler for children and adults.
Plus if you've got a Star Wars nerd as your Secret Santa recipient this year, you're onto a winner as it’s just under a fiver.

6. Star Wars R2-D2 Egg Cup

Another silly stocking stuffer to surprise someone with this Christmas.
It may not be written on their Christmas list, but we bet they don't have one already, so we think this will make an egg-cellent gift.

7. Jedi in Training Babygro, Bib and Hat

The best gift you can give a parent is to help them set their child on the right path.
This tiny clothes set will ensure their youngling will grow up a true Jedi and not stray to the Dark Side.

8. Star Wars Monopoly - Limited Edition

You won't be stuck for something to do on Christmas Day with this fun version of Monopoly.
It's just like regular Monopoly, except the winner gets to rule the entire galaxy.

9. Star Wars: Battlefront (PS4)

If you have an avid gamer to buy for and they happen to love Star Wars too, chances are this brand new video game will be on their Christmas list, and you'll be a hero for putting it in their sack.

10. Star Wars: The Complete Saga

We couldn't finish the list without mentioning the complete set of the movies. Every Star Wars fan should own them all, but if you know someone who doesn't we've got you covered.
