Stormtroopers, the infantry of the Empire and the First Order, have not only become the symbol of their dictatorial leadership but in many ways the face of the Star Wars franchise. Outside of Darth Vader's, no other helmet is so instantly recognizable as belonging to a single series, with countless merchandise branded with their its likeness and color scheme.
The black and white color palette of the Empire's legions is distinct in the Star Wars Saga, and while it was intended to convey anonymity and intimidation, it's become something more. Stormtroopers have become almost a reassuring presence, connecting the franchise despite decades of different films, cartoons, and soon to be live-action series. When a stormtrooper shows up, it feels like Star Wars. Below you'll find a myriad of gifts for the stormtrooper fan in your life.
STORMTROOPER FUNKO POP
While stormtroopers are generally regarded as the fearsome physical embodiment of the might of the Empire and the First Order, Funko has managed to make them into adorable companions. It may also help that this Funko is much smaller than the real thing and ostensibly not a trained killing machine.
Perfect for guarding your desk at work, or ensuring other cars "move along" while sitting imperiously on your dashboard, this stormtrooper means business. He sports the armor from the classic trilogy and carries his trusty E-11 blaster. Bop him on the head and watch him nod along to your commands.
STORMTROOPER GEEKI TIKI CUP
Protecting the Empire is thirsty work, and stormtroopers need to have some time away from blasting Rebel Scum. Even the Death Star had a bar/canteen, and while it may not have been eccentric enough to serve drinks out of this Stormtrooper Geeki Tiki, it gave troops an opportunity to relax and get a refreshing beverage.
This officially licensed stormtrooper cup is made from high-quality ceramic, can hold 14 oz of your favorite drink, and is one of six other Geeki Tikis by ThinkGeek. Standing 7 inches tall, it can be thrown in the dishwasher or microwave (just not the trash compactor), and is the perfect gift for stormtrooper fans who like some island flair.
LOUNGEFLY STORMTROOPER DOME PURSE
Not everyone equates stormtrooper armor with the most fashionable ensembles in the galaxy, but prepare to view it in a whole new light with this Stormtrooper dome purse by Loungefly. One of several Star Wars designs that are part of the Disney/Loungefly partnership, it's just the bag for the geek on the go.
Made from simulated leather, this officially licensed product is roughly 10 inches by 10 inches and is large enough to hold your wallet, keys, phone, and any other small essentials you'll need as you make your way in the universe.
BANDAI TAMASHII NATIONS ASHIGARU STORMTROOPER
From the master toy crafters at Tamashii Nations comes this intense stormtrooper figure dressed in the battle dress of a feudal Japanese warrior. Ready to serve the similarly attired Samurai Darth Vader by Tamashii Nations, this Ashigaru stormtrooper embodies ferocity as well as a commitment to duty.
Sculpted and painted to create dynamic action poses, no detail has been overlooked, from the battle skirt to the tip of this stormtroopers katana. Original stormtrooper concepts for A New Hope included giving stormtroopers lightsabers, so this isn't too far off.
STORMTROOPERS: BEYOND THE ARMOR
While this book was initially intended as a means to bridge the gap between Disney's The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, it stands on its own as a beautiful compendium of stormtrooper history, design, and concept. It looks at one of the most iconic characters in all of Star Wars as part of the films, comic books, video games, and series.
Trace the stormtroopers origins from the mind of Star Wars creator George Lucas, to early concept art, and how they finally became established as the Empire's most elite soldiers. This officially licensed book not only contains stunning artwork, essays, and commentaries, but also stickers, removable posters, and more!
STORMTROOPER SOCKS
As the military representatives for the Empire, stormtroopers aren't just required to suppress resistance to its rule throughout the galaxy. They're also responsible for looking the part whenever they're out in uniform, maintaining the level of decorum expended of the Emperor's fighting elite.
Show your support for Imperial standards with this twin pack of stormtrooper socks, featuring one set that replicates stormtrooper armor, and one with helmets set against an argyle pattern. These officially licensed socks fit sizes 6-12 and are perfect to demonstrate your Imperial allegiance in the workplace, at a wedding, or even on a date.
STORMTROOPER BEERSTEIN
Have a drink with the troops with this stormtrooper ceramic Beer Stein. Whether you like the Dark Side lagers or you're more of a Light Side Ale sort of person, your stormtrooper stein won't mind. Whether you're for the Empire or Rebel Scum, it all goes down the same "garbage shoot".
Not a beer drinker? Pour your favorite hot beverage into it and start the day off the Imperial way. Don't want to ruin it by drinking from it at all? This officially licensed mug makes a great addition to your Star Wars collection and will hold a place of distinction on your shelf or in your cupboard.
STORMTROOPER BACKPACK
As any stormtrooper will tell you, they're nothing without their gear. Whether they find themselves searching the Dune Sea for droids under the sweltering Tatooine suns, or navigating the frosty terrain of Hoth, what they carry on them is what makes sure their mission is successful.
You'll get more than just a utility belt with this backpack. This officially licensed pack is capable of holding everything you need to get through the day, with a sturdy exterior based on stormtrooper armor, and plenty of internal storage for your laptop, books, and wallet. You're set to take over the galaxy.
SIDESHOW COLLECTIBLES SIXTH SCALE STORMTROOPER
Sideshow Collectibles has done it against with their incredibly detailed sixth scale stormtrooper figure. Depicting the classic soldiers of the Empire from the original trilogy with their iconic white and black armor, this figure features handpainted and finely sculpted components that spare no detail.
Each figure comes with field equipment, as well as a series of alternate hands to articulate different gestures and make it more dynamic. It stands just under 12 inches tall, and has an astounding thirty points of bodily articulation to put it into the best action poses on your shelf.
STORMTROOPER GROUND CONTROL SHIRT
Celebrate two icons with this Ground Control Stormtrooper shirt; David Bowie and the iconic stormtrooper. A spoof of the classic line from Bowie's song Major Tom, this shirt depicts a stormtrooper helmet with the Iggy Stardust lightning bolt across its right eye and the words, "Ground Control to Lord Vader" beneath it.
Commemorate the passing of a sci-fi icon who some say simply returned to his home planet, and would no doubt have given the Empire a reason to party. Made from 100% cotton in the USA.
