Star Wars toys keep getting better with each new movie. Two years ago, when “The Force Awakens” introduced the cute droid BB-8, Sphero introduced their incredibly accurate working version of the droid. Star Wars toys are an integral aspect of the experience: many of us grew up playing with them. So with a new movie arriving this year, Best Buy will help ensure this tradition continues by giving away almost $4000 worth of Star Wars toys in this contest! Which one are you dying to add to your collection?
Star Wars toys are not just for kids
Star Wars toys were always the coolest thing around. When we were kids they were cool, and nothing has change: kids today still love them. Interestingly, adults still love them too. They are not just for collectors either. I’ve met many adults who either still have Star Wars toys from when they were a kid, or ones they’ve acquired more recently.
I have a shiny silver Millennium Falcon that I think is great. It sits next to my computer at Best Buy’s head office. I used to have this massive tie fighter (shown in the image on the right) at my desk too. Unfortunately, our office was recently rearranged and it had to be moved. If I was to choose one of the newest toys as a replacement it would definitely be the Propel Speeder Bike Drone shown in the image at the top.

The droid inventor kit look amazing! Probably my favorite since I could enjoy building it with my nephew.
UB Tech Stormtropper is the item I want. Always wanted to be Darth Vader, controlling these soldiers.
Have interest in robotics.
R2 D2 droid for sure! BB8 is a close second…Love star wars…
R2D2 app enabled Droid. R2D2 has always been my favourite character with his sassy bips and beeps. He is always bringing C3PO into new situations, but is always there when you need him with a light saber or an electric shock. Watching Star Wars with R2D2 for the first time with my four year old would be amazing!
BB8 app enabled droid…. Looks like lot of the fun. Winning this would be amazing and my son would be ecstatic.
The Sphero R2-D2 app enabled droid… for so many reasons. I fell in love with the droids from the first moment they appeared on screen in A New Hope. As a kid, I so wanted to understand what R2 was saying but I never really figured it out (although, he exudes so much emotion with those beeps). I have several R2-D2 and BB8 toys but this one would likely be the highlight of my collection. I also so badly want to make my sphero BB8 interact with R2-D2.
The lenovo star war: jedi challenge who doest want to be a jedi..with the possibilties of turning sith, and well the rest of it would all make a great addition to my collection!!!
Prize B, because of the awesome collection of Drones – they make the movies
Huge Star Wars fan! My choice is the PRIZE B because of the R2D2 app-enabled droid. I have been a police officer in my city for 9 years… may the force be with you!
My soon to be 7 year old is all about Star Wars. He would love the R2-D2 app enabled droid so he can walk around with it when he’s in his Darth Vader or Kylo Ren or Stormtrooper (he has 2 different ones) costume.
The SPHERO STAR WARS R2-D2 APP-ENABLED DROID would make a perfect gift for my husband…He has watched every Star Wars movies made he is obsessed with them and know the lines to every one of them by heart…
The UBTECH Star Wars Stormtrooper Robot!!! Are you kidding me?!?! I little stormtrooper to patrol my house and look for intruders!!!??? He would be SUCH an amazing addition to our household! Love me a stormtrooper!
The R2-D2 droid, because I really relate to him. He’s in his forties, battlescared and just wants to be left alone to sleep. I think he may be my spirit animal
being a single dad it would be nice to have someone to decompress to when the day ends. I feel like the Sphero R2-D2 App Enabled Droid and I would be able to do that. He could beep out the times when the stories get colourful in their language. But most importantly he’d listen. Just listen. In the mornings when I’m trying to get my kid ready for school he wouldn’t judge me for the bowl of sugary cereal I give instead of making the breakfasts you see the kids on the TV get, unless this app has an eggs and bacon setting. I’d give him some good runs up and down the apartment hallway. It wouldn’t be one sided. Plus, my son always wanted a brother… or sister… R2 could be both?
The droid building kit is my favourite. It reminds me of omnibot only cooler
Sphero R2-D2.
Love how interactive it is.
I am sad honestly, I have to pick just one. Being a Star Wars fan since 1977 and loving everything and single moment about Star Wars especially the smart ass robot R2-D2 and BB8. Not a single item in that list would not blow my mind and make me feel like a kid again. However if I had to pick just one it have to be Little Bits Star Wars Droid Inventor Kit as I have a collection of R2-D2’s.
The VR headset & Saber. Never tried it yet. Looks like a ton of fun though.
Prize B – the speeder bike. I’m a mountain biker & Star Wars freak, simply put..whenever I’m riding in trails whipping through the trees, I’m no longer pedalling a mountain bike; I’m on a speeder bike trying to catch up to the scout trooper ahead of me! hahaha
The little bits droid inventor kit would be my choice so that me and my 9 year old son could build it together. There’s not thing better than sharing love of invention and love of Star Wars with your son.
My favourite product from the winning items is the “Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges VR Headset with Saber & Beacon” because it is such a realistic representatiin of the lightsaber Rey uses as Luke once did making it such an engaging product that will make the virtual reality feel more real then ever. I like it because I have always wanted this lightsaber and want to fight with it in a virtual/realistic way like never before!
I LOVE THE LITTLE BITS STAR WARS DROID INVENTOR KIT SINCE I LIKE TO WIN FOR MY SON FOR HIS BIRTHDAY GIFT
i love the little bits star wars droid inventor kit because i like to win for my son for his birthday gift, thanks
UBTECH Star Wars Stormtrooper Robot because I have no idea what it does but its expensive so probably something awesome.
I like the Little bits Star Wars droid inventor kit!! My son is obsessed with Star Wars and wants to build a robot. I think this would be the perfect gift him.
Little bits Star Wars droid inventor kit!! My son is obsessed with Star Wars and wants to build a robot. I think this would be the perfect gift him. I had no idea it existed til I saw this post but I think now it’s a must have.
Loved Star Wars when it first came out and still love them. All the charaters are great.
The VR headset & Saber! Because I haven’t had a chance to try VR yet and who doesn’t want to be a jedi! So cool!
The R2-D2 App Enabled Droid would be awesome! He would make a great addition to the family!!!
My favorite Star Wars toy would have to be the Jedi Challenge. It would be an amazing addition to my collection, not to mention the sheer joy of VR in the Star Wars world. Just to be able to put it on and live the dream in a galaxy far, far, away. They are all amazing toys but that one would be the best.
The Lenovo Star Wars Jedi Challenges is my favourite because I have always wanted a sweet light saber to play with. The augmented reality feature sounds amazing
The Lego Star Wars ships have and will always be my favourite!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 <3 <3 <3
Sphero RD-D2!!! He’s a classic and my kid’s favourite! The history behind the character as well as the absolute awesomeness of Sphero…great toy idea!
I love the droid building kit! I’ve always been a fan of the movies and expanded universe, and I love to build things with my son. He loves to see the things we build come to life, and soon he will be a Star Wars fan too!
The sphero R2-D2 app enabled droid has to be my favourite!!! As a kid I grew up with the original trilogy and R2 was probably my favourite character of the series. I have had many R2 “robots” some interactive many not but none of them looked as awesome as this little droid does!!!
I would love the Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenge. Train to be a Jedi like Luke in VR. It’ll take me back to being a kid and pretending to have lightsaber battles with my brothers 🙂
The BB8 RC because it is soooooo cute. I love.
Oh boy, my husband would love all of these! He has the BB-8 and I think he would really love the BB9E.
I love the Sphero R2-D2 app enabled droid to go with my BB-8 Sphero. I love seeing BB-8’s reactions watching The Force Awakens & Rogue One! I have been a fan of Star Wars since seeing The Empire Strikes Back in theatres in 1980! Looking forward to The Last Jedi! 🙂
So hard too choose! But I have a soft spot for the Storm trooper, just because when I think storm trooper I think of Darth Vader. Let’s just say I follow the dark side of the force 🙂
Thanks
Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges VR Headset with Saber & Beacon is my favorite of the bunch – VR apps are neat, but getting to pretend to do lightsaber training while actually technically doing lightsaber training? awesome! Way better than when we used to pretend when we were kids!
I think the Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges VR is SO cool!! It’s like what you would dream for in the 90s! It would be cool to do lightsaber fights and stuff!!
That being said all these star wars toys/tech are fantastic!!!
My favourite toy is the Sphero BB8 app-enabled Droid. I love BB8 and have wanted this since it came out, but have not been able to afford it. I’ve watched so many video reviews of this toy and everything looks amazing! It’s like having a best friend in a box! <3
Would love that speeder bike!!!! I have been collecting Star Wars for quite a long time and that is something I would love to add due to my love for speeder bikes
R2-D2… because he is the best droid hands down and a wise cracker
Love the Lenova Jedi Challenge! I love the interactive play that will allow you to challenge all the character from Star Wars. This will keep people off the couch and moving around!!!!
lenovo starwars jedi challenges looks cool you can play like your a Jedi it sounds so fun
My Favorite is LENOVO STAR WARS: JEDI CHALLENGES
I always wanted to be a Jedi Master. This will be my best chance at accomplishing this Dream. I would love nothing more than to defend the universe from the dark side for Christmas. 😀
Thank you!!!
The SPHERO STAR WARS R2-D2 APP-ENABLED DROID is my favorite. i love all Star Wars movies and charaters but the originals were my teen obsession, this would be a cool toy to own
The ships have always been my favorite. The x-wing drone would be amazing!
