Those looking to outfit their smartphone with some Star Wars flair are also in luck, as Otterbox is discounting all of its Symmetry cases by 10% and offering free shipping. Cases start at just over $40 and there’s a pretty wide selection of styles in the sale, but my personal favorite is this slick BB-8-themed option.
Not to be outdone, Disney is taking up 40% off its select Star Wars merchandise. Unlike ThinkGeek, this isn’t a sitewide sale, but there are still notable discounts on collectibles, clothing and more. Plus, all orders over $75 get free shipping with code SHIPMAGIC.
If collectibles are more your style, Funko has your back with 15% off its entire lineup of Star Wars figures and merchandise when applying code M4BU at checkout. Orders over $50 lock in free shipping as well, if you’re feeling compelled to splurge a little.
Those feeling the need to build something are in luck as well, as Bluefin is taking 25% off all of its Bandai Star Wars model kits. I’ve built a few of these myself over the past few months and love how detailed the kits are. In my book, they’re the way to go for display-worthy Star Wars collectibles, that is if you don’t mind a little assembly.
For Star Wars fans looking to get their game on, we’ve already rounded up a variety of PS4 and iOS/Mac discounts. There are some seriously tempting sales here, like LEGO Star Wars Force Awakens Deluxe Edition for $15.
If you’re bummed out your pet can’t indulge in the May the 4th festivities, here’s your chance to get them in on the fun too. Petco is also offering getting in on the savings, and offering buy one get one free on all Star Wars toys, treats and accessories.
Target on the other hand is taking up to 20% its selection of Star Wars gear. There’s a wide range of apparel in the sale, making Target your go-to place for t-shirts and other ways to show off your fandom for Star Wars.
