Best Star Wars deals

Whenever I think about Star Wars Black Friday deals, I remember Obi-Wan Kenobi's greatest line from Star Wars: A New Hope: "This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster. An elegant weapon, for a more civilized age. And now heavily discounted for Black Friday." I just got shivers.

Channelling the Force Ghost of the beardy Jedi Master, I've been digging up some Star Wars Black Friday deals myself this year, and maybe you'll be able to find something that will help you reconnect with your own estranged Sith dad. 

With the Steam Autumn Sale now live, it's a good time to fill out your Star Wars library. You can get up to 80% off Star Wars games on Steam, including Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Star Wars: Squadrons, both for 63% off. Fallen Order isn't a bad bet if you fancy a bit of Dark Souls in your Star Wars adventures, while Squadrons is an absolute must if you've been waiting for a new Rogue Squadron. 

Despite the long history of Star Wars games, there haven't been too many new ones in the Disney era. This certainly isn't the case with Lego, which has become the source of some of the best Star Wars toys. And some of the most expensive. There are already some good deals to be found, and the official Lego Black Friday sale also kicks off tomorrow, so expect even steeper discounts.

I can't mention Obi-Wan's most famous line about the Jedi's favoured weapon and not give you a lightsaber deal, can I? There are plenty of very expensive ornamental toy swords that you can throw money at, but why not get one your kids can actually play with? 

Star Wars Lightsaber Academy | $49.99 $44.99 at Amazon (save $5, and another $9.45 with Prime)

Star Wars Lightsaber Academy | <a href="https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=8432&GR_URL=https%3A%2F%2Famazon.com%2FStar-Wars-Lightsaber-Interactive-Smart-Hilt%2Fdp%2FB07R4PZ1V8%3Ftag%3Dhawk-future-20%26ascsubtag%3Dhawk-custom-tracking-20" data-link-merchant="Amazon US"" target="_blank">$49.99 $44.99 at Amazon (save $5, and another $9.45 with Prime)
This extendable lightsaber comes with an app that lets you duke it out with famous Jedi Masters, or friends who own their own lightsaber. If you're worried your younglings are lagging behind, this will give them a leg up. The $5 off isn't much, but with Prime the discount is a lot more significant. 

And if you're looking to get in the festive spirit the only way you know how—with Vader plastered over everything, of course—here's a nutcracker to get you in the mood.

Kurt Adler Darth Vader with Death Star Nutcracker | $45 $27.23 at Amazon (save $17.77)

I always figured this would be Vader's favourite Christmas trick. He passes you a newly force-cracked walnut, and scoffs, "Be careful not to choke on your aspirations.”
