Millennium Falcon Necktie
GET IT NOW: AMAZON
The fastest hunk of junk in the Star Wars Universe is the Millennium Falcon, which was won by Han Solo from Lando Calrissian. Responsible for saving Luke Skywalker at the Battle of Yavin IV and the destruction of the second Death Star during the Battle of Endor, the Falcon is the most recognizable spaceship from the entire franchise.
Lucasfilm has licensed an official necktie featuring the schematics of the Millennium Falcon from multiple angles. Coming in a variety of colors, the tie is 100% polyester and runs long to accommodate people of any height.
BB-8 Mug
GET IT NOW: AMAZON
One of the breakout fan-favorite characters from The Force Awakens was the rolling astro-mech droid BB-8. Loyally serving Poe Dameron and the Resistance, the droid eventually enters Rey's care on Jakku and helps her the Resistance discover the final hiding place of Luke Skywalker by the end of the film.
Zak Designs have released a ceramic BB-8 mug with a smooth base to rest the cup despite the droid's rounded design. Carefully sculpted and hand-painted, it is recommended to hand wash the mug to maintain its high level of detail as Star Wars start their day with a hot beverage straight from the friendly astro-mech.
Star Wars "I Am Your Father" Shirt
GET IT NOW: AMAZON
One of the most iconic lines in all of pop culture is Darth Vader's revelation that he was in fact Anakin Skywalker, Luke's long-lost father, bringing their conflict on to an entirely deeper, personal level at the end of The Empire Strikes Back.
A licensed black t-shirt bears the earth-shattering phrase, crediting Vader and the film reminding all about the famous moment without having to show any actual imagery from the franchise. Coming in a variety of adult sizes, the shirt is perfect for any dad wanting to show off their dad status and Star Wars love at the same time.
Chewbacca Bathrobe
GET IT NOW: AMAZON
The must cuddly, yet fierce hero in the Star Wars franchise is Chewbacca, Han Solo's loyal co-pilot and a pivotal member of the Rebel Alliance. A Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk, Chewie is a strong fighter, adept pilot, and marksman with his trusty bowcaster. And, now, fans can dress as the furry co-pilot with maximum comfort.
The officially licensed Chewbacca bathrobe features the familiar brown, furry design as the beloved Wookie complete with his laser bolt bandolier around his left shoulder. Made from a cotton/polyester blend, the robe is one size fits most and features a hood, pockets, and tie with a smooth plush interior.
Luke Skywalker Lightsaber Replica

A replica of Luke's green lightsaber has been released at a relatively affordable price. With movie sound effects straight from Episode VI, the lightsaber lights up and reacts to motion and contact for those wanting to wield it and also comes with a display stand to present to guests in the meantime.
