Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side.
We’re forced to admit that this almost standard-looking Nerf blaster makes the list for one key reason. It’s a new version of the Episode VII blaster reimagined for the Nerf Glowstrike line. That’s right when you fire it, the bolt glows in the dark. Blaster sounds not included, but we’ll make our own.

Okay, if the Nerf blaster is for the kid in us, who gets the Z6 riot control baton? The weapon almost as famous as its wielder’s battle cry of “Traitor!” is becoming a high-quality collectible, and it looks every bit as impressive as some of the more stylish official lightsabers. This is one display piece not to miss.

It’s Chewie! Ultimate Co-Pilot Chewie is probably the closest we’ll ever get to having our own Wookiee sidekick. The animated toy features 100 different responses to your actions and movements, complete with Kashyyyk-quality Shyriiwook grunts, growls and roars.

It’s a new Millennium Falcon! This version of the Falcon from the Solo film is now a toy that works with all of your other 3.5-inch collectibles to help reenact scenes from the upcoming movie. It’s also a spoiler, as Hasbro announced that many pieces fly off to simulate high-speed damage. It also looks like that forward cargo container is removable, though that wasn’t in the announcement.

These are two of the best toys to go with the new Millennium Falcon, but they may also be a spoiler for Solo. Why? The name of that person who isn’t the suavest guy in Cloud City. While we can easily recognize Lando Calrissian, the inclusion of a Kessel Security guard in his deluxe two-pack was a bit of a shock. Guess we’re off to the spice mines for sure in Solo.

Hasbro’s first crowdfunded Star Wars toy has already made an impression out of the gate. But who wouldn’t want a 4-foot long version of Jabba the Hutt’s sail barge? While it’s a bit pricey, the Khetanna could beat the Nixon series of watches as some of the most collectible items of all time. We’re not sure why there’s a rancor riding in the back, though.
