Reportedly, even George Lucas didn't believe in the original "Star Wars" movie. There weren't any sequels planned when the first film was released. It was a science-fiction movie that had a limited fan base. Lucas allegedly predicted it was going to be popular for a couple of weekends, but then die a quick death after the target audience had watched it. No one expected that nearly half a century later there would be new films and series announced and launched every year. And no one thought Star Wars would get its own day. Yet here we are, once again celebrating May the 4th Star Wars Day. We rounded up the top Star Wars gifts that superfans will love.
In this article: Star Wars The Mandalorian Grogu RC, Star Wars R2-D2 Popcorn Maker and "Star Wars Character Encyclopedia"
