What could be more seasonal than a Star Wars-themed advent calendar? This calendar contains a mini Lego figure for all 24 days of Christmas, including six Lego minifigures, six Lego figures including the utterly delightful Darth Vader in a Christmas sweater, and 12 mini Lego build toys like a teeny-tiny Millennium Falcon and an adorably miniature X-wing. It’s suitable for kids, but frankly, plenty of adults would be delighted by a little Lego toy for each December morning as well.

Make your mornings a bit more intergalactic with a Death Star waffle maker. Because who wouldn’t want delicious breakfast waffles in the shape of the ultimate evil superweapon? Pour in your waffle batter, close the lid, and open after a few minutes of cooking time to reveal a waffle imprinted with the iconic design of the Death Star.

Baby Yoda Collectible Figurines — $13, was $16

The Child stole all of our hearts when we watched The Mandalorian, and now you can get your very own pair of Baby Yoda figurines. These adorable figures are 2.2 inches high and show the Child enjoying a hearty bowl of soup and wrapped up in a warm fuzzy blanket, just as we’d all like to be this holiday season. There are other variations of our favorite adorable alien available as well, including a two-pack of Baby Yoda chomping down on a frog and using his Force powers, and another pack of him using his big sad eyes to ask you to stay and playing with a part of Mando’s ship that he just won’t put down.

Lego Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker Millennium Falcon Starship Model Kit — $160

Is there any greater joy than waking up on a holiday morning and unwrapping a Lego Millennium Falcon? Surely that’s only topped by spending the entire day building it and playing with the cute tiny Lego figures. This built-it-yourself model comes with seven Lego figures including Finn, Chewbacca, Lando, and Boolio, as well as the essential robot friends of C-3PO, R2-D2, and D-O. And the ship itself has features like rotating gun turrets, spring-loaded shooters, a lowering ramp, and an opening cockpit.

Baby Yoda ‘The Child’ Animatronic Edition — $50, was $60

If you can’t get enough of Baby Yoda then you can get a life-size animatronic toy to cuddle and pet to your heart’s desire. This 10-inch-high figure makes cute burbling and cooing sounds and has motorized movements including moving head, ears, and eyes. If you pat him on the head three times, he’ll raise his tiny hand to use the Force. And once he’s done exerting himself with his Force powers, you can lay him down and he’ll take a nap.

Star Wars R2D2 Popcorn Maker — $100

If there’s one thing that every movie night needs, it’s popcorn. So next time you’re planning a Star Wars movie night with friends, you can wheel out this super cute R2-D2 popcorn maker to fit the theme of the evening. When you’re not using him, R2-D2 stores away looking like a model of the friendly droid from the original movies. But when you’re ready to pop some popcorn, you can lift off his head to use as a popcorn bowl. The popcorn machine uses hot air to pop the kernels rather than oil, so it’s a healthy snack, and the bowl and machine are easy to clean.

Star Wars Mystery Box — $40

If you like a surprise or you’re looking for a gift for someone who loves all things Star Wars, then this mystery box could be the item you’re after. Inside the box are four items: A knit hat, a pin, a mystery figure, and a comic book, all based on characters and events from the Star Wars franchise. This is a fun way for Star Wars collectors to add some new items and some mystery to their collections.

Best PlayStation Plus Deals: Save on Essential, Plus and Premium
Best PS Plus deals

Sony's PlayStation 5 is one of the biggest consoles of the generation, and we're not just talking in terms of sales or game releases. Much like the PlayStation 4, it's taken a while for the PS5 to take its stride, but it finally has a great lineup of games that are worth checking out. Of course, one big downside to consoles like the PS5 is that, unlike a gaming PC where you can connect to multiplayer servers without an issue, you have to have a subscription service, in this case, called PlayStation Plus. It's not all bad, though, since there are some tiers that give you access to a large PS games library and a few other perks, so it's worth grabbing for more reasons than just access to online content.

Also, while you're here, be sure to check out these excellent PS5 game deals and PlayStation deals that include some great games and accessories you can get for a great price.
What is PlayStation Plus?
Along with online multiplayer and other in-game network features, a PlayStation Plus Essential membership grants you access to exclusive discounts and other promotions. Perhaps the most notable benefit of PlayStation Plus is that every month, Sony gives subscribers one PlayStation 5 and two PlayStation 4 games that are free to download. You have one month to add these free PlayStation Plus games to your library.

Best Ring deals: Save on Ring doorbell and Ring alarm bundles
Ring Video Doorbell 3

When it comes to home security, Ring is one of the best-known brands and makes one of the best video doorbells on the market. Plus, if you're in the Amazon ecosystem, it absolutely makes sense to grab something from Ring that goes beyond just the doorbell but also things like floodlight cameras and things of that nature. That said, Ring can get quite pricey, which is why we've collected some of our favorite Ring deals and bundles below to save you a little bit extra when setting up your house with home security.

That said, if you're not particularly tied to Ring, you could check out its competitor with these Google Nest deals or our more general roundup of security camera deals instead.

Best Dyson deals: Cordless vacuums, purifying fans, and beauty
The Dyson V15 Detect cordless vacuum with its laser.

Dyson is a company that's probably most famous for its bladeless fans, but it actually makes a lot of excellent gear across the board, from vacuums to hair straighteners and even a weird set of headphones that are also a mask. Of course, being at the high-end and innovative means that Dyson products tend to be quite expensive, usually running several hundred dollars, which is way more than most folks are comfortable paying. On the bright side, there are a lot of great Dyson deals, both on new products and on refurbished gear, although if you can't quite find what you're looking for, you might want to take a look at these vacuum deals, cordless vacuum deals and air purifier deals as well.
Best Dyson fan deals

Dyson's bladeless fans can do just about anything -- not only can they heat up or cool down a room, but they can also purify the air by trapping pollutants. Dyson's Air Multiplier technology amplifies surrounding air to create uninterrupted streams of air, while LED screens show the status of the devices. They're fairly expensive though, which is why Dyson fan deals are always in high demand.
