There's a universe of Star Wars gifts out there, so how do you find the best ones? Considering the thousands of toys, collectibles, and curiosities that exist, where do you even start? If you're feeling overwhelmed, don't worry - here's what I always ask when tracking down Star Wars-related presents.

🎥 Work out their favorite Star Wars films
It's easy to say "all of them" and wring your hands in despair, but I'd bet you that your loved one likes a specific set of movies or characters better than the others. If they're all about the original trilogy, you know to focus on products featuring Darth Vader, Luke, Leia, Han, and the rest. If they prefer the sequel or prequel trilogy, that's another helpful starting point.

🏆 Do they like collectibles and display pieces?
It's worth considering this question, because you don't want to get someone who prefers a minimalist setup lots of bulky 'stuff' to clutter their space, cool though it may be - that present may end up stuffed in a cupboard and never seen again. If they don't tend to show off display pieces like Funkos, replicas, or action figures, I'd look at clothing or books (including the High Republic novels, the 'From a Certain Point of View' short stories, and coffee table art books) instead. These tidy away neatly so won't be on show all the time, but are still thoughtful presents.

🧑 Are you shopping for adults?
It sounds like an obvious question, but the best Star Wars gifts for a 30-something grown-up aren't necessarily going to be the same as those for a kid. If they're an older fan, I'd take a look at books (coffee table art books for the films are always a solid bet), collectibles like helmet or lightsaber replicas, and apparel such as hats, hoodies, or tees. Those are all fairly safe bets.

👪 Are you shopping for kids?
If you're shopping for young padawans, my gut reaction is to go straight for the plushies, action figures like Black Series/Vintage Collection, or toy lightsabers such as Lightsaber Forge. There's a broad enough variety of each that you're unlikely to double up on anything the recipient already has, and they're all plain awesome.

For more present-worthy ideas, why not check out the best Nintendo gifts, the best retro gifts, or the best PlayStation gifts?
