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.

My favourite is the PROPEL SW X WING DRONE CLR ED. The Propel SW combines my desire to own a drone with my love of Star Wars. I like the fact that it is equipped with an altitude stabilization mode makes piloting easy, T Mode for beginner pilot training, and auto takeoff and landing.
Sphero Star Wars R2 D2 app enabled Droid
I like the original old school
Thanks
The jedi challenges is my favourite as you can feel like you are part of the movie. It’s something you could use multiple times as you try to get better and better, rather than something that will sit on the shelf.
The PROPEL SW SPEEDER BIKE DRONE CLR ED is my favourite because I’ve wanted to ride a speeder bike since 1983. Plus I could torture, I mean, play with, our new puppy.
littleBits Star Wars Droid Inventor Kit
My son is into electronics and making these style of kits, provide hours of fun for the family, while providing him education and knowledge for his future (he wants to be an electronics engineer).
UB tech stormtrooper is my favorite as I think it’s awesome to have a voice command trooper with facial recognition, maybe teach him to actually hit something lol
I need a BB-9E app enabled droid to drive my cat insane.
R2 d2 is my favorite because he looks cool and in the movies he does alot of funny things
Love the LENOVO STAR WARS: JEDI CHALLENGES as who doesn’t want to become a real life jedi.
The littleBits Star Wars Droid Inventor Kit is my favourite because I think it would be fun to build my own droid and the Force Drive functions looks really cool.
The SPHERO STAR WARS BB-9E APP-ENABLED DROID is my favorite. I think it would be super fun to be able to control BB8 and have him cruising around my house. It’s also the toy my nephew has wanted so it would be fund to get to play with him as well!
The UBTech Stormtrooper. My youngest son’s favorite character(s) from the Star Wars franchise.
Oh gosh oh gosh I have to choose just one?!
I’ll go with the STAR WARS BB8 RC then, because frankly it’s perfectly iconic and so darn cute!
Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges is my favorite!!!! This is by far the coolest thing I’ve seen and my whole family would love it!
Love storm troopers so I like #1
I’d have to go for the Sphero Star Wars BB-9E droid! I’ve alwats had a soft spot for droids and Imperial droids at that! The black finish is best!
The inventor kit looks amazing because I love to get imaginative!
SPHERO STAR WARS R2-D2 APP-ENABLED DROID! Because R2-D2 is the True Hero of the Star Wars Saga!!
Propel Star Wars X-Wing Battling Quadcopter Drone Is really cool. What’s cooler then an x-wing drone that you can fly around the hood!
Would love to have the lil it Star Wars droid inventor kit to make my own droid.
The Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges VR Headset with Saber & Beacon is my favourite!
My step-son is crazy about everything Star Wars! Movies, cartoons, books, LEGO, figurines, bedding, clothes, you name it, he wants it!
I would love to win one of these prize packs so that he, his brother, their dad and I can all play with the amazing toys! My spouse and I saw a video of the Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges VR Headset with Saber & Beacon in action and were completely amazed! This is something we have talked about saving up to get the boys for Christmas, but it would be a challenge so winning it would make this the best Christmas ever!
i would love to win SPHERO STAR WARS R2-D2 APP-ENABLED DROID ive always been a fan of star wars and R2-D2 is my favourite i even have a giant painting of him on my wall!
R2D2- for us older persons- it relates to the older movies the best
Definitely the BB8 App enabled droid from Sphero. I teach an extra-curricular coding club and would love to use it as part of the curriculum I use. It would be amazing!
Sphero Star Wars R2D2 App-Enabled Droid would be amazing. Just to make my children jealous would be the best present ever!!! I love R2D2!!!!!!
R2d2 app enabled droid, would be awesome, my husband is a huge collector of Star Wars, he has quite the collection and we’re always adding to it, he would love any of it.
Has to be the PROPEL SW SPEEDER BIKE DRONE CLR ED!!! Love to have that!!
The Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges would be my prize of choice, because I love the idea of an interactive VR gaming experience that could mimic what Luke went through when he trained on the Falcon with the remote droid! So much fun!
Gotta be the Sphero Star Wars R2-D2 App-Enabled Droid. R2-D2 has always been my favourite Star Wars character – he’s so damn cute plus this toy looks like it would be so much fun to engage with.
It has to be SPHERO SW BB-8 APP-ENABLED DROID W/TRNR, because it’s soo cute and how fun to be able to have BB8 rolling around the house and for the kids to use in their video’s when they make them. Also great for learning to interact with technology as well 🙂
Sphero BB9-E; would love to add BB-8’s counterpart to the family. My son would be ecstatic with both of them rolling around the house, not so much his mother.
I like R2D2 as I really like robots.
I’d love to win the SPHERO STAR WARS R2-D2 APP-ENABLED DROID.
BB-8 is my favourite. Resilient, brave with a cheeky sense if humour.
The SPHERO Star Wars R2D2 APP enabled droid is my favourite… Love hearing those droid ” beeps” .. My fav. Star Wars droid!
Definitely The Propel XWing Drone. Saw a demo a while back, they are pretty cool.
BB8. Because it is so awesome, and my son’s favorite too.
The Sphero R2-D2 is my wish list! R2 is the most courageous, bravest little droid of all; his bleep-boop’s, weeooow’s and phbrrrrk’s transcend all barriers! Would love to explore the Millenium Falcon with him, or use the Watch with Me feature for Force Awakens before seeing The Last Jedi. I Artoo!
The LENOVO STAR WARS: JEDI CHALLENGES VR gear and game is my favourite new Star Wars toy that is coming out this year. I grew up as huge Star Wars and science fiction fan in the 80s. During that time I lived in a very small town where access to new toys, new movies and other new books was limited. This was a time well before the Internet and online shopping existed, so it was extra tough to feed my obsession with popular culture and science-fiction. Near the end of the 80s, just before I left my small, home town to go to university, I became intrigued with the concept of virtual reality. The technology, at the time, was very much in its infancy, but even then it promised to be the next big thing. Now, twenty-odd years later we are finally seeing VR and AR technology starting to come to fruition and I find it extra exciting to see that a Star Wars Jedi lightsaber dual game is helping to lead that charge.
I would love the UB TECH STORMTROOPER simply because I Love stormtroopers they can’t hit the broad side of a barn but the armour is hype.
R2D2 of course
Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges VR Headset with Saber & Beacon looks like great fun!
The UB Tech Stormtrooper is iconic. The stormtrooper is unmistakable and a known ‘villain’ through generations. Although Darth Vadar is THE villain, who would he be without his minions!! This would be the toy of ages!!
The Jedi challenges vr headset.
What kid hasn’t dreamed of wielding a lightsaber? I’ve been wanting that dream since I was a youngling.
The littleBits Star Wars Droid Inventor Kit would be awesome! Why? Who wouldn’t want to build a droid! I know my daughter and I love Star Wars and the thought of building a droid is AMAZING!
I’d have to say the TIE fighter drone is the favorite. My son loves flying drones, and the TIE Advanced is my favorite ship.
The LENOVO STAR WARS: JEDI CHALLENGES looks incredible! Who wouldn’t want to be a Jedi@!?
Having an actual Jedi lightsaber battle would be the coolest toy ever! I’d love to win the Lenovo Star Wars Jedi Challenges for my 10yr old son, but secretly, Mum would use it in her spare time!
LENOVO STAR WARS: JEDI CHALLENGES looks really cool and it would feel like you are in the movie! For sure my favorite and would love to try that out. BB8 and the Stormtrooper were a close second. Absolutely awesome giveaway, I am a huge fan of Star Wars and have my fingers crossed for this one!!
The Lenovo Star Wars Jedi Challenge! I was a fortunate kid in the 90s being able to see the re-release of the original trilogy in theatres. The scene(s) in the original where Luke practices with the flying bot droid deflecting the lasers with the lightsaber was THE coolest thing, and if I get to live that even a little bit then life truly is LIT.
