They don’t show it in the movies, but the Galactic Empire, like the British Empire, actually loves tea. It is a little known fact that during the battle of Hoth, Stormtroopers were having a tea party in the back of those AT-ATs.

Redditor PoorKidstoys daughter goes to a school that has a special “Drive In Movie” day for the last day of school. That sounds really cool, but the best part is that kids get to bring in a homemade cardboard car to sit in while they all watch the movie.

I’ve always wondered what it took to build the actual models used in the original Star Wars franchise. Those original movies looked great and had no computer animation in them. Bandai Hobby is getting ready to release a model kit that is a 1/72-scale Millennium Falcon model that is billed as almost as accurate and precise as those used in the filming.

Impressive. Most impressive. Darth Vader was pretty badass in Rogue One and now he goes back to being adorable with this new Funko Pop figure. He’s super adorable. This figure has a Death Star base and Darth Vader is riding his TIE Fighter as if it was one of those coin operated rides for kids.

I’ve often wondered what happened to the Imperial engineer who designed the AT-AT. I mean, as you build this massive walking battleship of death and come to find out on its first deployment, all it takes to destroy it is some rope.

This Darth Vader armchair is the perfect chair for anyone who is allied with the Dark Side and wants to show it. Emperor Palpatine probably has one just like it in his office that he makes Vader sit in when they’re having meetings.

So you fancy yourself a Han Solo sort, huh? You are a rogue and a scoundrel, but what you lack is a Wookiee co-pilot for your very fast hunk of junk. Well, here is the next best thing the “Chewbelta,” a Chewbacca bandolier seatbelt cover.

You know what really ties a room together? A Death Star rug. Especially one with some palm trees and an AT-ST against a Scarif sunset. At least you don’t have to die stealing the plans. You can just buy one.

Aren’t you a little sweet to be a stormtrooper? Check out this cake that looks just like a stormtrooper’s helmet. What I really want is a Stormtrooper helmet cake that I can wear on duty and eat while guarding the halls of the Death Star.

Star Wars fans, check this out. GameStop will be getting an exclusive NERF Rival Apollo XV-700 blaster, done up in the style of your favorite bounty hunter. Unlike most NERF guns which use foam darts, this one fires little round projectiles which look like golf balls to me.

This is the droid you are looking for when it comes to carrying cash and cards. Just think of your jeans as an X-Wing and dock this bad boy in your back pocket so he can help you navigate throughout the day.

If you have ever lusted over the cool and expensive action figures and collectibles that Sideshow Collectibles offers and wondered how the hand-painted coolness comes together, check this out. This behind the scenes video at the toy shop shows how the Star Wars Rey and BB-8 premium format figures are painted and put together.

If you’re looking for a cool and unique skateboarding helmet, this is the coolest. It was made to celebrate Star Wars Day last week by Donovan Ewing (a.k.a. “The Beardless Man“). I love it. The coolest part is has to be those glowing eyes.

When I was a kid if I had an extra few bucks, I spent the loot on Star Wars action figures. I always tried to find Luke Skywalker, but he was always sold out. You could usually get Darth Vader, and this 40th anniversary action figure looks just like the one I had growing up.

Do you heart R2-D2? Of course you do. He is the best droid ever. Much better than BB-8! We all love this little droid. Well, this R2-D2 Heart Crossbody Bag is the perfect accessory for anyone looking to show their love for the astromech droid.

I’d think that Darth Vader would have a hard time with coffee. I mean he wears a helmet all the time, not exactly a headgear that works well for drinking things. Perhaps that is what he was doing inside that ball thingy, chilling and having a cup of joe.
