Top Seven Coolest & Strangest Star Wars Items Out Now

HINT: Number 1 is a game, and it’s NOT Battlefront!
As Force Awakens roars into theaters just a week before Christmas, it’s no doubt that there will be many Star Wars themed gifts under trees this Holiday Season. They’ll be thousands, if not millions, of action figures, LEGOs, videogames, and the usual assortment of coffee cups, funny ties, artwork and other various paraphernalia all emblazoned with the images and likeness of characters from the Star Wars series new and old.

However, just off the beaten path of the Force, somewhere in that fuzzy-Mace-Windu-purple area between the light side and the dark, there are other items, different items, that while may take some tracking down to find – are definitely the items you’re looking for. No we’re not talking about t-shirts and actual app-controlled droids, but the oddest, strangest off the wall Star Wars items you can buy… RIGHT NOW.

His and Her’s “I Love You, I know” hand towels.

Han Solo, in his infinite wisdom, taught an entire generation on how best to respond when your lady throws the “L” word around for the first time. His sly, cool response of “I Know” is somehow simultaneously non-committal and yet highly sexy. Buy these hand towels for your lady to show her how you really feel, or at least, that you know how she feels. Click here to buy from Think Geek

X-Wing Knife Block – including set of stainless steel knives!

Ah, nothing quite brings back the memory of Luke shooting his laser into a womp-rat sized hole in the Death Star as… kitchen knives? While we’re not quite sure of the connection between the infamous X-Wing Starfighter and a set of knives, we do know that these would look really cool on ANY kitchen counter.

Darth Vader Toaster.

Did you buy the knife set above? Good, now that I know you’re decorating your kitchen, here’s the next item you need… a toaster in the shape of Darth Vader’s head. Yes, of course it imprints the Star Wars logo on the side of your toast, and while there have been similar toasters out for years, now you can finally laugh maniacally when you ask your guest or loved one if they want their toast… on the dark side. Click here to buy from Bed Bath & Beyond!

Topps Star Wars Card Digital Ultra Rare Pink Digital Card.

While a trading card might not be incredibly new, this one is incredibly rare and will set you back a cool 700 dollars. For the right fan, I suppose that’s not insane – after all there are only TEN of these cards in the entire world. Here’s the kicker – the card is ENTIRELY digital. Yep, it’s a card that only exists inside the world of Topp’s Star Wars Card Trader App! Yes you can see the card now, online, but you don’t “OWN” it… at least not yet. Click here to buy from eBay.

The Wookie Onesie.

Be the hit of your pajama themed Christmas party by dressing, head to toe, as everyone’s loveable Wookie – Chewbacca. The Wookie onesie is not only a cool item, but cool to say as well… one problem, there’s probably no way to stay cool INSIDE of it, as it’s 100% polyester and bound to keep you warm, without the smell of a taun taun’s internal organs. If someone asks where you got it, just tell there is more than one way to skin a wookie. Click here to buy from Target.

The Lightsaber Selfie Stick.

By now, collecting lightsabers is a subset of the Star Wars memorabilia game. There are many types of lightsabers, from the toys to well-constructed replicas and even things like BBQ tongs and chopsticks… but I daresay only the hardcore collector/millennial is the proud owner of a Darth Vader lightsaber that extends into a selfie stick. Banned by Disney World, but loved by tweens everywhere, the Star Wars selfie stick might be the only acceptable version of this product in the entire world. Click here to buy from Think Geek.

Star+Wars+Cornhole+Game+Set+Carbonite+Han+Solo+Version-1448661199

Star Wars Cornhole game.

The coolest game in the Star Wars universe right now is NOT Battlefront, instead it’s this incredibly detailed and well manufactured cornhole set from Victory Tailgate. In case you’re not familiar with cornhole, it’s one of those games that takes you minutes to learn and years to master. Teams take turn launching corn-filled bags at smooth wooden planks with a hole cut out in it, gaining points for either making it through the hole or leaving them on the plank after. It’s quite addicting, and easily playable with a beer in one hand, and the bean bags in the other.

Victory Tailgate was generous enough to send us a copy of their VERY popular and Officially Licensed “Han Solo in Carbonite” version of this game, and we’re here to tell you – THIS is the real deal. These games are made with tournament grade construction with ½” thick cabinet grade plywood and all American Cornhole Association (yep, that’s a thing) regulation size and weight. These are not cheap, light or flimsy, and the boards are regulation size and sure to stand up against years of play time. They even make bags with Star Wars logos or character outfits to really complete the entire theme.

The best part is that Victory Tailgate is offering 20% on these awesome items right now for the holidays, making them just under 200 bucks! A great price for what’s sure to be the talk of your next get-together. Click here to buy from Victory Tailgate.

So there you have it! If you’re buying for a Star Wars fan this year, trust us, this list contains items they likely don’t have! Now forgive us, we’ve got a game of cornhole to finish!

    As an adult, I’m not sure how I’d navigate restroom activities if I wore a Wookie Onesie to a pajama party.
