You don’t need the newest trailer for the upcoming Star Wars reboot to remind you how much you loved the original trilogy. And you probably don’t need any of the sweet gadgets on this list, but that doesn’t mean you don’t want them anyway.

 

Trilogy poster set

This poster set brings the original trilogy into the modern world of minimalistic graphic design with silhouettes laid over background images of Tatooine, Dagobah and Endor. $45. Also check out these vintage travel posters for destinations like Coruscant and Mustafar.

 

On Ear headphones

This is no gag gift. These are serious 40mm, passive-noise cancelation, listener’s choice headphones. They just happen to display your allegiance to the Rebel Alliance, the Galactic Empire or Boba Fett. Because Boba Fett owes allegiance to nobody. $179.

 

Portable Phone Charger

Never get caught without a charge again with one of these Star Wars-inspired back-up batteries. A li-ion battery with 2600mAh capacity provides plenty of extra power for when you’re stuck in the far reaches of space. $30.

 

Chewbacca Hoodie

Just jaw-droppingly amazing. Dress as your favorite wookie and stay warm at the same time. If you really want to go all out, look for Welovefine’s super furry hoodie to come back into stock. $60. Also check out this Chewie/Han Solo reversible jacket.

 

Rechargeable Mini Speakers

Now Vader or R2-D2 can amplify your beats. USB charged from iHome, take these Star Wars speakers with you wherever you travel. $19.99.
