Star Wars might be as popular today as it was when lines first wrapped around the corners of movie theaters in the summer of 1977. The trifecta of capping off the saga films with Rise of Skywalker, premiering Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland and Disney World, and the small-screen success of The Mandalorian have put Star Wars—and especially Star Wars merchandise—front and center yet again. If you've got a Star Wars fan in your life, you're spoiled for options.

1. For anyone and everyone: Disney+ subscription

Best Star Wars Gifts: Disney Plus
Best Star Wars Gifts: Disney Plus

Since its launch in November 2019, Disney+ has become the new home for all Star Wars movies and TV shows, barring the occasional project that Lucasfilm is choosing to ice out (Tartakovsky's Clone Wars series, the Ewok movies, and the 1978 Holiday Special, anyone?). All eleven feature films are here (as well the Clone Wars movie, if it must be counted), plus The Mandalorian and the delightful Lego Star Wars collection. If you're keeping up with the onscreen Star Wars universe, this is a must-have.

Give one year of Disney+ for $79.99

2. For the AV nerds: Star Wars on Blu-ray

Best Star Wars Gifts: Skywalker Saga
Best Star Wars Gifts: Skywalker Saga

Sure, having all the movies at your fingertips on streaming is great, but if your giftee is an obsessive AV nerd that needs every pixel to be perfect, you might think about having a hard copy of Star Wars on Blu-ray disc. Now that the entire Skywalker Saga has been released, you can snag a full box set featuring all nine movies and original artwork from all the films.

Get Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga at Best Buy for $$179.99

3. For fans of her worshipfulness: The Princess Diarist

Best Star Wars Gifts: The Princess Diarist
Best Star Wars Gifts: The Princess Diarist

Carrie Fisher was a gifted memoirist and fiction writer as well as an actor. The Princess Diarist is, in some ways, both her first and her last work. Based on the diaries that she kept during the shooting of the original Star Wars film, she didn't publish it until shortly before her death in 2016. Its bombshell revelation may have been confirmation of her affair with Harrison Ford, but the book's lasting value is in reminding us of her creative force one last time.

Get The Princess Diarist (hardcover) at Amazon for $12.49

4. For the animal lover: A rare Bantha stuffy

Best Star Wars Gifts: Galaxy's Edge Bantha Plush
Best Star Wars Gifts: Galaxy's Edge Bantha Plush

If you or your giftee haven't been to Galaxy's Edge yet, you're missing one of the greatest Star Wars experiences on the planet and hopefully, in a post-pandemic world, I'll be back there myself. The newest additions to Disneyland and Disney World are an immersive experience and one of the best parts is the shopping. One-of-a-kind stores sell rare items, but they occasionally make their way into other retail channels, like this stuffed fuzzy Bantha (now poodoo free), available now at the online Disney Store.

Get the Plush Bantha at ShopDisney for $39.99

5. For the casual LEGO fan: LEGO BrickHeadz

Best Star Wars Gifts: BrickHeadz
Best Star Wars Gifts: BrickHeadz

If you know someone who loves Funko Pop figurines, give them a gift that looks similar, but requires a little more elbow grease. These LEGO BrickHeadz come in sets of two Star Wars characters, like this set that features Grogu and the Mandalorian. Watch your giftee squee in delight as they remember just how fun it is to put together LEGOs.

Get the LEGO BrickHeadz from Kohl's for $19.99

6. For the serious LEGO fan: LEGO Star Wars AT-AT

Best Star Wars Gifts: Lego Star Wars AT-AT Walker
Best Star Wars Gifts: Lego Star Wars AT-AT Walker

Since its earth-shaking appearance in The Empire Strikes Back, the surprisingly easy-to-trip All-Terrain Armored Transport has wowed Star Wars fans. This 1,267-piece LEGO version even comes with a bottom hatch and winch so that wee little LEGO Luke can toss in his thermal detonator. One shopping note: Many of the popular LEGO sets become hard to find around the holidays, so keep checking back at Amazon, LEGO, or other retailers to find it.

Get the LEGO Star Wars AT-AT at Amazon for $159.95

7. For the toy collector: Mando on a Bantha Bobble-Head

Best Star Wars Gifts: Mando on a Bantha Bobble-Head
Best Star Wars Gifts: Mando on a Bantha Bobble-Head

After the second season of The Mandalorian dropped, no surprise, they cranked up the merch machine. This charming bobblehead is a nod to the first episode. The head, we presume, is perfectly to scale.

Get the Mando on a Bantha Bobble-head at Books-A-Million for $23.99

8. For the interior decorator: Star Wars pillow cover

Best Star Wars Gifts: Star Wars Pillow Cover
Best Star Wars Gifts: Star Wars Pillow Cover

The perfect marriage of George Lucas and Andy Warhol, these decorative throw pillows are just the right amount of nerd chic for any home. It's available in multiple sizes and patterns, but the stormtrooper is the one that caught our eye. (Note that it does not include the pillow insert, but there is a link on the page to order an inexpensive match.)

Get the Star Wars Pillow Cover at Etsy starting at $54

9. For the party host: Star Wars Hexagonal Coasters

Best Star Wars Gifts: Star Wars Hexagonal Coasters
Best Star Wars Gifts: Star Wars Hexagonal Coasters

Etsy is a treasure trove for Star Wars fans. These engraved coasters are hand-finished and varnished. They can be bought individually, but as a set of six they line up nicely on a coffee table, making a perfect conversation piece.

10. For couples in love: Han Solo & Princess Leia Matching Shirts

If you're that sort of couple, these shirts call back to the most romantic scene in cinema history, which, famously, was an improvised line by Harrison Ford. Wear your love, and your geekdom, out loud.

Get the Han Solo and Princess Leia Matching Shirts at Esty for $49.90

11. For the Mando fans: Baby Yoda Animatronic Edition

Best Star Wars Gifts: Animatronic Grogu, a.k.a. Baby Yoda
Best Star Wars Gifts: Animatronic Grogu, a.k.a. Baby Yoda

The breakout star of The Mandalorian is officially dubbed "The Child," but of course, we know him as Baby Yoda. This particular newcomer to the deluge of Baby Yoda merch is activated by patting his head. The manufacturer claims that it makes 25 sound and motion combinations, but user reviews seem to report far fewer. Still, it's undeniably cute. ShopDisney sells a version with a carrier bag for $20 more, but the Amazon return policy is better if you're not satisfied with your purchase.

Get The Child Animatronic Edition at Amazon for $59

12. For those who get the joke: Little Orphan Ani T-Shirt

Best Star Wars Gifts: Little Orphan Ani T-Shirt

Best Star Wars gifts: Swarovski crystal Princess Leia

This gorgeous figurine is made up of 480 crystal facets, capturing the iconic rebel princess made famous by Carrie Fisher on the big screen in 1977's "Star Wars: A New Hope." It's a decorative item you'll want to handle with care, so it's definitely not for younger fans. Swarovski also has Vader, Luke Skywalker, and other pieces available.

15. For the Dark Side aficionado: Darth Vader Lightsaber Hilt

Best Star Wars Gifts: Darth Vader Lightsaber Hilt
Best Star Wars Gifts: Darth Vader Lightsaber Hilt

One of the highlights—albeit the pricier highlights—of visiting Galaxy's Edge is the chance to make yourself a custom lightsaber. You can spot the true nerds on your flight home as they awkwardly try to stuff it into the overhead bin. But as few of us are traveling these days, here's a chance to put a little dark side of the Force under the tree. This highly accurate reproduction of Vader's hilt lights up and makes noise. (Note that the attachable red blade is sold separately.)

Get the Darth Vader Lightsaber Hilt at ShopDisney for $139.99

Best Star Wars Gifts: Jedi: Fallen Order
Best Star Wars Gifts: Jedi: Fallen Order

Ever wanted to play as a Jedi, learning how to wield a lightsaber and double jump to your heart's desire? Your giftee likely has.

Get Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order from Amazon for $29.25

If you need a rug that really ties the room together, the Force is strong with this one.

Get the Ruggable Rebellion rug starting at $99

18. For the fashionably chilly: Baby Yoda sweater

Best Star Wars gifts: Mad Engine Baby Yoda sweater

This one celebrates the Disney+ sensation Grogu, a.k.a. Baby Yoda, and his guardian, Din Djarin. It comes in sizes ranging from Extra Small to 4X, and has all the Mandalorian style you can handle—including the titular character's mudhorn signet.

This hard-to-find, convention-exclusive Funko Pop is sure to thrill the Star Wars fan on your holiday list. Lovers of The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, in particular, will immediately recognize the evil wizard played by MoCap maestro Andy Serkis. Snoke is the deceitful master of Kylo Ren, Supreme Leader of the First Order, and something of a fashion icon in the galaxy far, far away.

Get the Hologram Snoke Funko Pop at Amazon for $39.99

21. For the retro-photogs: Polaroid Camera Mandalorian Edition

Best Star Wars Gifts: Polaroid Camera Mandalorian Edition
Best Star Wars Gifts: Polaroid Camera Mandalorian Edition

The Polaroid Now debuted from the ashes of the old Polaroid company in early 2020, trading on its nostalgic appeal, cool looks, and low price point. It's far from high tech and will likely take much worse pictures than your phone, but that's not really the point of owning a Polaroid, is it? This Mando edition is about $20 more than the standard white version, sporting the Mandalorian skull logo and, in case you're not clear, the words "The Mandalorian" on the front. Still, Polaroid cameras make fun gifts. Just remember that they need film (no digital shooting here) and prints end up costing about $2 per picture.

Get the Polaroid Camera Mandalorian Edition at Amazon for $119.99

22. For the film historian: The Making of Star Wars

Best Star Wars Gifts: Rinzler's Making of Star Wars
Best Star Wars Gifts: Rinzler's Making of Star Wars

J. W. Rinzler, former executive editor at Lucasfilm, is celebrated as one of the best Star Wars historians. This book—the first of multiple installments—is one of the chief reasons. It documents the painful birth of George Lucas's 1977 Star Wars film, richly detailed with interviews cast and crew interviews, photos, anecdotes, and more. If you want to learn all the million ways your favorite film franchise almost never happened, this is the source.

Get The Making of Star Wars: The Definitive Story Behind the Original Film (hardcover) at Amazon for $46.49

23. For conspiracy theorists: Darth Jar Jar Binks and His Apprentice

Best Star Wars Gifts: Darth Jar Jar Figurine
Best Star Wars Gifts: Darth Jar Jar Figurine

Have you ever heard the theory of Darth Jar Jar? I thought not. It's not a story that Disney+ would tell you. It's an internet fan rumor. Darth Jar Jar was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and wise that he could use the Force to influence those around him into thinking he was a simple-minded klutz. And now you can buy this beautifully sculpted mini figure from Etsy seller Order66miniatures. Etsy is a pathway to many Stars Wars products that the House of Mouse would consider to be... unnatural.

Get the Dark Lord figurine with apprentice and stand at Etsy for $17.50

24. For the home chef: R2-D2 Instant Pot

Best Star Wars Gifts: R2-D2 Instant Pot Duo 6
Best Star Wars Gifts: R2-D2 Instant Pot Duo 6

As a token of our goodwill, I present to you a gift: this pressure cooker droid. It is hardworking and will serve you well. In all seriousness, we love the Instant Pot, and if you're going to opt for the Star Wars-version of some everyday object, R2 is already the perfect shape for this.

Get the R2-D2 Instant Pot Duo 6-Quart Pressure Cooker at Amazon for $99.99

25. For the archivist: The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia

Best Star Wars Gifts: The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia
Best Star Wars Gifts: The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia

If your giftee is obsessed with the pre-Disney-era Star Wars universe, this is the go-to manual. Weighing in at 11 pounds and running 1,124 pages, the amount of detail in this three-volume hardcover set is frankly insane. Rich with photos and bursting with details about the original six movies, radio dramas, comics, novels, cartoons, short stories, and video games, it's about as completist as you could have gotten in 2008, when it was originally published. The effusive Amazon reviews say it all.

Get The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia at Bookshop.org for $138

26. For the celebrity hound: Cameo interactions from actual Star Wars actors

Best Star Wars Gifts: Cameo
Best Star Wars Gifts: Cameo

If you haven't heard of Cameo, you may be the better for it. It's a fan-interaction platform where users are able to purchase personalized video messages from celebrities big and small. Like fame itself, Cameo is a panoply of the beautiful and the grotesque—choose wisely if you wish to keep your soul. But for Star Wars fans, there are plenty of recognizable actors to choose from.

Get real-life Star Wars celebrity interactions at Cameo from $30 - $300

27. For younglings in need of Force-protection: Disney Star Wars face masks

Best Star Wars Gifts: Disney Star Wars Face Masks
Best Star Wars Gifts: Disney Star Wars Face Masks

In the COVID era, decorative face masks for kids may well become the new "socks & undies" gift: not exciting, but hopefully appreciated. In my own experience, the Disney masks are the best masks for kids, thanks to their comfort, relatively breathability, and snug fit.

Get a 4-pack of Disney Star Wars Face Masks at ShopDisney for $19.99

28. For the bedtime champ: Hanna Andersson Star Wars Pajamas

Best Star Wars Gifts: Hanna Andersson Star Wars Pajamas
Best Star Wars Gifts: Hanna Andersson Star Wars Pajamas

Hanna Andersson makes the best pajamas your kids will ever wear: comfortable, durable, and now—as an official Star Wars licensee—they're pumping out some truly awesome designs. The best part is that your kids will probably outgrow them before they ever tear, so you'll be able to pass on the joy to the next kid when you're done.

Get the Star Wars Kids Pajamas at Hanna Andersson for $40

29. For the hungry scoundrels: Millennium Falcon Waffle Maker

Best Star Wars Gifts: Millennium Falcon Waffle Maker
Best Star Wars Gifts: Millennium Falcon Waffle Maker

Novelty waffle makers are nothing new. You can find Mickey Mouse waffle makers, keyboard-shaped waffle makers, hearts, dinosaurs, Ninja Turtles… even Ruth Bader Ginsburg-shaped waffle makers. But the joy is no less diminished if you love Star Wars and, on a cold weekend morning, someone sets down in front of you a delicious plate of buttered and syrup-drenched Millennium Falcons. "I love you," you say. "Ahh gnnoo," they reply from their waffle-stuffed mouth.

Get the Millennium Falcon Waffle Maker at Williams Sonoma for $49.95

30. For the Louvre-bound pet owner: Star Wars Custom Dog Portrait

Best Star Wars Gifts: Star Wars Custom Dog Portrait
Best Star Wars Gifts: Star Wars Custom Dog Portrait

Ironically baroque pet portraits are all the rage these days, and these Star Wars-themed portraits from a popular Etsy store are pure catnip for pet lovers. Each is, of course, custom made using your own pet's image melded to one of two options: Jedi or Mandalorian. User reviews are vocal about how much care and attention goes into each portrait. There are options for digital-only or on canvas in multiple sizes.

Get the Star Wars Custom Dog Portrait at Etsy starting at $29.97

31. For the capitalist in training: Star Wars Monopoly

Best Star Wars Gifts: Mandalorian Monopoly
Best Star Wars Gifts: Mandalorian Monopoly

The classic game of "drive your family members into bankruptcy," Monopoly is a legitimately great board game that has stood the test of time. It's not the first Star Wars x Monopoly crossover by any means, but the special Mandalorian edition incorporates a bunch of great player pieces, including a particularly enticing IG-11.

Get Star Wars Monopoly Mandalorian Edition at ShopDisney for $49.99

32. For the Echo Dot owner: Baby Yoda Echo Dot stand

Best Star Wars Gifts: Baby Yoda Echo Dot Stand
Best Star Wars Gifts: Baby Yoda Echo Dot Stand

If your giftee owns the hugely successful Echo Dot and still can't get enough Baby Yoda in their life, consider this decorative base. It won't make a Dot more effective, but it will make it a whole lot cuter.

33. For the subtly nerdy fashionista: Pandora Princess Leia Charm

Best Star Wars Gifts: Pandora Princess Leia Charm

Get the Pandora Princess Leia Charm at Amazon for $63.69

34. For the butterfingers: Baby Yoda PopSocket

Best Star Wars Gifts: Baby Yoda PopSocket
Best Star Wars Gifts: Baby Yoda PopSocket

Like several of the items on this list, an everyday item emblazoned with a cute, licensed character is a cash grab, but if it's a useful and genuinely good item—like a PopSocket—there's no harm in it. And in fact, that's what makes it a great gift.

Get "The Child" PopSocket Phone Grip at Amazon for $14.99

35. For the jewelry lover: Lokai Star Wars bracelets

36. For the aspiring co-pilots: Millennium Falcon Blueprint

Best Star Wars Gifts: Millennium Falcon Blueprint
Best Star Wars Gifts: Millennium Falcon Blueprint

The chances of successfully building a working Millennium Falcon based solely on this blueprint are approximately 3,720 to 1, but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying it as a piece of art. Available framed, unframed, on canvas, or metal printed, and in a variety of sizes, you can make a lot of special modifications. Plus it comes from a highly-rated Etsy seller, not some scruffy-looking nerf herder.

Get the Millennium Falcon Blueprint (Unframed) at Etsy for $28

37. For the burgeoning model-builders: LEGO Baby Yoda

Best Star Wars Gifts: Lego Baby Yoda
Best Star Wars Gifts: Lego Baby Yoda

All things Mandalorian-related are hot this holiday season. The LEGO toys are particularly enticing, including this 1,073-piece model.

Get the LEGO The Child at Amazon for $79.95

38. For the professional nerd: Darth Vader Silk Tie

Best Star Wars Gifts: Darth Vader Necktie
Best Star Wars Gifts: Darth Vader Necktie

Some jobs just don't let you show off your inner geek. If the person on your list has to keep it formal at the office, they'll appreciate the extremely subtle integration of Vader heads and Imperial crests into the otherwise innocuous paisley pattern.

Get the Cufflinks Inc. Darth Vader Silk Tie from Nordstrom for $58

39. For the fashionably active: Adidas Star Wars shoe collection

Best Star Wars Gifts: Adidas Star Wars Shoe Collection
