The Last Jedi trailer has finally dropped and everyone is already waiting for the “Chewie and the Porg” buddy cop movie to be announced! Unsurprisingly, the Porg has quickly become a favorite to many Star Wars fans, working it’s way into our hearts with mimicry of Chewbacca’s mighty roar.

These tiny bird-like creatures are native to the planet Ahch-To, the place where Jedi Master Luke Skywalker exiled himself after the Battle of Endor. The creatures dwell on the cliffs of the island where Skywalker lives (in the upcoming film) and at least one Porg buddy appears to accompany Chewie on the Millennium Falcon in the trailer.

Of course, this means the Porg have started to invade the retail space for the holiday shopping season. Here are our 25 favorite Porg related items across the Web:

10 Gifts for the Star Wars Fan Who has Everything

You may know someone like this. They can amazingly recite lines or remember character names from all six movies with no less than a second of hesitation. They can talk to you at length about Who Shot First and how Lucas’s revisions of the original trilogy were an abomination. These gifts are for them, in the hopes that they don’t already have piles of branded toast.

Darth Vader Toaster / MSRP: $50

Molded in black plastic in the shape of Vader’s helmet, this toaster will delight Star Wars fans and likely horrify visiting in-laws.

Still, it could make for a killer decoration in a DIY Star Wars home theater.

5 Best Star Wars Video Games

There’s no better medium than video games to step into the role of your favorite hero or villain from the Star Wars saga. Check out some of our best picks for Star Wars video games:

Star Wars: Battlefront / MSRP: $60

While it’s not released yet, Star Wars: Battlefront is an action game that’s quickly climbing the pre-order charts due to impressive footage released in the last six months. Available for the PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on November 18, players will be able to re-enact classic Star Wars battles as well as play iconic characters like Darth Vader and Boba Fett. This game is best for older players experienced in online shooters.

Check Sale Price on Amazon

Star Wars: KOTOR I, II and SWTOR / MSRP: $5 and upwards

We know, this is technically three separate games. However, we see these as a saga as every single one of the Knights of the Old Republic games are worth playing in order (and likely repeatedly). The first two are traditional RPG games, likely taking up 30 to 40 hours of your time each, and the latter is a MMORPG, a free-to-play game that offers significant bonuses when you subscribe. Different from most MMORPG games, the focus on story is absolutely amazing—basically providing 8 different story-lines for the character classes in the game. Look for the best deals on the PC versions of the first two games during Steam sales and the latter when new expansions are released.

LEGO Star Wars: Complete Saga / MSRP: $7 and upwards

Not to be missed, this treatment of the first six Star Wars films is absolutely fantastic. While definitely geared at younger players, there are plenty of jokes in the game that will make adults laugh as well. While it originally came out for the previous generation of consoles (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii), you can also find it on the PC as well as mobile platforms like iOS or Android smartphones or the Nintendo DS.

Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition Starter Pack / MSRP: $65

Integrating Star Wars characters into the same universe currently occupied by Marvel, Disney and Pixar characters, the Disney Infinity 3.0 pack is another great game targeted at a younger generation of players. Besides the current generation of consoles, the Infinity 3.0 pack can also be picked up for the Xbox 360 or the PlayStation 3.

Available on pretty much every console platform as well as mobile devices, this game is great for all ages. Adapting the popular Angry Birds game into the Star Wars universe, the player gets to destroy the Death Star as well as take on Sith lords like Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine. It’s a fun game to pass the time and likely addictive if you have played any of the previous Angry Birds games.

Bonus: 4 Ridiculously Overpriced Star Wars Toys / Collectibles

Of course, there’s one thing that Disney knows quite a bit about: overcharging customers. Here’s a batch of toys and collectibles that you should absolutely avoid, unless you like using stacks of one hundred dollar bills for blaster practice.

$28,500 Imperial Star Wars Watch / Devon Works

Designed to combine elements from Darth Vader’s helmet and gloves as well as a TIE Fighter and the Imperial crest, this horrifically overpriced wristwatch requires a $2,500 down payment just for the privilege of paying another $26,000 on delivery. But hey, they are throwing in some TIE Fighter cufflinks with a watch that costs more than some midsize sedans.

$4,500 to $6,500 LEGO Star Wars 1st Edition Millennium Falcon (10179) / eBay

Regularly selling on eBay (or Amazon) for several thousand dollars, the original LEGO Millennium Falcon sports more than 5,000 parts with sections such as a rotating radar dish, extending boarding ramp and detachable cockpit with all the original trilogy mini-figures. While the new version is a far less complicated build, it’s also about 3% the current cost of the original version.

$4,000 Millennium Falcon Star Wars Bed / Pottery Barn

This insanely priced twin bed is crafted out of hardwood and includes a faux control panel with all the knobs and gauges on the Millennium Falcon. We recommend saving your money and use Instructables to build you own Star Wars bed. Perhaps the AT-AT Imperial Walker Loft Bed or this Star Wars X-Wing bed.

$1,300 Star Wars Stormtrooper Costume / ThinkGeek

Probably forcing you to wear this for the next 10 to 15 years as a primary Halloween costume to justify the cost, the super expensive Stormtrooper costume includes EVA molded-pieces, a two-piece helmet and a black polyester bodysuit to complete the Imperial ensemble.

Comprised of over five million LEGO bricks, a full 1:1 scale model of Luke Skywalker’s X-Wing fighter has been constructed by a 32-person team headed up by “LEGO Master Builder” Erik Varszegi. On display in Times Square, the team that created the massive LEGO X-Wing masterpiece spent approximately four months putting it all together.

Assembled around a sturdy steel frame for support, the LEGO X-Wing weighs approximately 23 tons and the wingspan is about 44 feet across. It’s more than 40 times larger than the LEGO Star Wars X-Wing Starfighter 9493 set. The model was assembled in Kladno, Czech Republic, traveled to New York City by ship and was re-assembled for a public launch in Times Square.

In addition to the X-Wing, the presentation in Times Square also includes LEGO versions of Star Wars Darth Vader, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and Luke Skywalker. Visitors to the New York display will be able to climb into the cockpit and pretend they are blasting through space fighting the Empire. After this weekend, the X-Wing will make the trip to LEGOLAND California near San Diego.

Check out some pictures of the giant LEGO X-Wing in action below:

Forget the alarm clock that forces you to get out of bed. I want to wake up to the sweet sound of Chewbacca screaming in Shyriiwook, the language of the Wookiees. Sold on Firebox, these old school alarm clocks will get you up in the morning by playing lines from the three Star Wars movies that are actually worth watching.

Depending on the alarm clock, you will be able to hear a Stormtooper barking at you, C-3PO and R2-D2 greeting you or Chewbacca’s guttural conversation skills. The clocks have been designed using the classic “twin-bell” look that was popular in decades past. However, the bells are only for decoration and have been painted or covered to reflect the Star Wars character.

Sound effects built into each alarm clock include:

• C-3PO & R2-D2: “Good Morning,” “Here we go again,” “Beep blip tweek beep bip beeep”
• Chewbacca: “Grrrrfffff,” “Argggghhhhh,” “Mrrrranh”
• Stormtrooper: “It’s them, blast them!”, “Do you know what’s going on?”, “Maybe it’s another drill?”, “Open the blast doors”, “Peeeew, Peeeeeew, Peeeeeew”

The alarm clocks run on three AA batteries and are small enough to sit on a standard bedside table. Each clock retails for £10.99 (about $17). 1,138 additional cool points are awarded to those who purchase a matching Star Wars iPhone 5 case to go with their clock. Check out the video below to hear the Star Wars alarm clocks in action:
