Toys and accessories
May the 4th sees Amazon essentially turned into a Jawa Sandcrawler, stuffed with more “Star Wars” merch than you could cram into the Millennium Falcon's cargo hold. Thankfully, you needn't deal with Tatooine's unscrupulous, cloaked traders to secure awesome deals on everything from Funko Pops! and Lego sets to board games, Black Series action figures, and even that Mandalorian waffle maker you've been wanting.
This brand new, diminutive take on the Funko Pop! craze kicks off with four iconic characters from “Star Wars: A New Hope.” In addition to Bitty Pop! Jawa, Luke Skywalker, and Obi-Wan Kenobi figures, the series 1 set includes a mysterious fan-favorite, from among Grand Moff Tarkin, Hammerhead, a Stormtrooper or a Tusken Raider. The quartet of tiny collectibles – which clock in at an adorable 0.9 inches tall – also come with a display shelf.
Disney always does May the 4th right, releasing an annual collection of goodies and gear to celebrate the big day with style to spare. This year brings an awesome Mos Eisley Cantina-inspired collection, complete with shirts, hoodies, tumblers, and more, all with official “May the 4th 2023” branding and plenty of familiar faces – including a few favorites of the scum-and-villainy variety.
The ultimate collectible for the most dedicated Light and Dark side fans, Hasbro's Selfie Series puts your face on a 6-inch “Star Wars” action figure. The premium item – which can put you under the armor of a Stormtrooper or behind the Beskar chest plate of Din Djarin – also carries a hefty price, but Hasbro Pulse Premium Members can now save 20% off the usual $60 cost through May 7.
You needn't be an avid pin collector to appreciate this incredibly cool, clever accessory from Loungefly. The 3-inch pin sports a hidden sliding mechanism, allowing you to swap out a frozen Han Solo with a freed version of Jabba's “favorite decoration.” Princess Leia standing by in Boushh disguise is just icing on the Carbonite.
Whether you're celebrating May the 4th or “The Mandalorian”'s recently concluded third season, Heroes & Villains latest “Star Wars” collection has got your back and then some. From designs based on the Mythosaur and The Children of the Watch to IG-11 and the Living Waters, the company's artful T-shirt takes go far beyond your typical Grogu fan-service. They've even got the jump on Disney+'s next live-action “Star Wars” series, with an awesome Ahsoka collection that'd make any Togruta warrior proud.
May the 4th has also unofficially become a big day for new Lego 'Star Wars' sets to launch, and this year is no different. A number of cool kits – from the detailed Emperor's Throne Room Diorama to a nearly-2000-piece X-Wing Starfighter – invite fans to build their favorite moments from the galaxy far, far away. But even if you're not in the brick-snapping mood, you can still celebrate your love of Lego “Star Wars”with new minifigure keychains of Fennec Shand, Scout Trooper and Darth Vader.
How do you build on the adorableness of the many Grogu toys and collectibles already dominating our display shelves. Well, you start by dressing the little guy in that tiny Beskar undergarment Din Djarin had crafted for his favorite Foundling. Thankfully, Mattel's 8-inch Baby Yoda plush does just that, displaying Grogu's cute, Mandalorian chainmail just beneath his iconic robe.
For many fans, May the 4th is all about filling the gaps in their action figure collections, as well as seeking out brand new sculpts released on the big day. While a number of retailers, including Amazon, will be offering steep discounts on older action figures, you'll want to head over to Disney for the just-launched Dok-Ondar Black Series exclusive. A cult-favorite character from Disney theme parks' Galaxy's Edge lands, the Ithorian merchant, trader, and collector is the revered proprietor of Batuu's Dok-Ondar's Den of Antiquities.
The Force is strong with Funko and Loungefly this “Star Wars” Day, as the brands are not only releasing new items – like the stylish/sinister Darth Vader Figural Helmet Crossbody Bag – but are also inviting fans to expand their collections with an offer no smuggler or scoundrel could refuse. Buy any three full priced “Star Wars” items — from the Funko or Loungefly collections — and get a fourth (pun intended) item absolutely free.
Jedi Knight Cal Kestis continues his epic journey just in time for May the 4th, as the highly-anticipated Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is now available on Xbox Series S and X, PlayStation 5 and PC.

But this one earns extra points for its “Star Wars” style, defined by Beskar-inspired colorways and swappable Mandalorian and Clan Mudhurn signet speaker tags.
You needn't be a Canto Bight high-roller to look good in the galaxy far, far away.
