The market for those cool toys has even boomed over the last few years due to the most recent entries in the franchise. Now, the best product in the market has got to be the Black Series Kylo Ren lightsaber, which is almost identical to the one used in the films.

This droid is just one of the most lovable characters in the entire franchise, which explains why toys representing him are some of the most popular among fans of all ages. This particular product is an adorable and interactive droid, but it is not like the toys you got as a kid. You can control this one via an app on your smartphone! You get to control R2-D2 and guide his movement, and even have him perform certain moves. The droid comes with LED lights and a speaker for those quirky R2-D2 sounds we all love, too. This is definitely one of the better Star Wars collections out there, and adults and kids alike would appreciate it.

It is one of the finest lightsaber ever made, with its great design and awesome quality materials. The hilt is even made out of real metal for the most part, and some very durable plastic. The best part about this lightsaber, though, is how powerful its illumination is; it can light up an entire room, which is what you would expect from a real lightsaber! It also comes with authentic saber sounds, so you’ll definitely love it.



The Black Series Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Imperial Stormtrooper Electronic Voice Changer Helmet

Last but not least, one of the coolest and most entertaining designs ever made, is the Stormtrooper helmet. It’s perfect if you want to put it on display, or if you want to wear it –– the helmet comes with a voice changer. So, you’ll sound just like a stormtrooper!

The world of Star Wars is just fun and full of excitement and possibilities, and these toys are a constant reminder of that. When you grab a hold of your lightsaber or put your Star Wars outfit on, it feels like you have been transported to a galaxy far away, and it is pure fun.
