Kohl's Has The Star Wars Stuff Fans Are Searching For

** A Geek Daddy was provided the featured products for free **

I've been a Star Wars fan since I was a six year old kid and now with all of the exciting things going on with the franchise as a dad I'm thrilled to be able to share this passion with my 6 year old twins.  My kids and I are ecstatic about Marvel's new comic book series, Disney Infinity 3.0 play sets and Electronic Arts' Battlefront video games, the second season of the popular animated television series Rebels, and of course the December 18th theatrical release of the motion picture Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens! To help us enhance the fun of these experiences, we headed over to Kohl's to get some great Star Wars apparel, accessories, and toys.


Kohl's has the Star Wars stuff fans are searching for with more than 2,000 items to choose from at its retail stores and online at www.kohls.com/StarWars.  We picked out a few outfits for my kids to help put them in the Star Wars spirit at school, on the playground, around the house, or on an outing to the movie theater.  They each brought home from Kohl's a stormtrooper costume hoodie that they can zip up and roleplay Star Wars adventures in at the park or playground.  My daughter has been really excited about going to see The Force Awakens ever since I told her that Captain Phasma who leads the stormtroopers in the new movie is a woman (played by Gwendoline Christie from Game of Thrones) so she was just as enthused about these hoodies as my son was.  He has been eyeing these hoodies for awhile now and couldn't wait to race to school wearing it the next day.



My kids also love the new droid that has been highlighted in the movie trailers called BB-8; so we also picked up for each of them a cool glow-in-the-dark t-shirt featuring the character that they could wear to go see the upcoming movie in. Plus to go along with the shirts we threw in an adorable BB-8 plush that they like to snuggle with when we're all sprawled out on the couch together watching episodes of Star Wars: Rebels on television.


Not to be left out I picked out some fan gear for myself to wear as well.  Adding to my baseball cap collection is is this New Era Star Wars Stormtrooper 9FORTY adjustable hat.  I also found this really comfortable fleece hoodie with subdued images of X-wing fighters on the front.  A guy needs to stay hydrated when he is on the go with two rambunctious kids so I grabbed a 24-oz Tervis water bottle that I can take along with us on all our family adventures.


Oh plus as a life long Detroit Tigers fan I just couldn't resist this "Let the Tigers Win" t-shirt and had to include the Hasbro electronic sound effects Chewbacca mask to go along with it!


To show off our family's Star Wars spirit we also brought home some accessories like R2-D2 and Darth Vader plates and movie themed pub glasses for our kitchen table.  My son will be dreaming about Star Wars every night in the bed set we got from Kohl's.  It's not just clothes and toys, you can find lots of Star Wars household items at Kohl's too.


We can't forget about toys though!  We have a few of those from Kohl's that the kids don't know about that my wife and I will be gift wrapping and putting under the Christmas Tree to surprise them from Santa Claus.  Santa's going to be bringing a Death Star Hot Wheels play set that is exclusive to Kohl's which includes 4 really nice diecast space ships (Millenium Falcon, X-Wing, Y-Wing & TIE Fighter) and a Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens Poe Dameron's X-Wing Vehicle by Hasbro.  OK and I'll admit it - A Geek Daddy is probably going to enjoy playing with these awesome toys as much as my kids are.


Enjoy the geeky side of life!  Indulge yourself with some fun Star Wars items to show off that you are a fan and put yourself in a good mood.  Kohl's has plenty of the Star Wars stuff fans are searching for!

  6. I bet people were staring by Kohl's. We bought a Darth Vadar blow up Christmas lawn decoration. We keep joking that we are going to do a Darth shrine at the new house. Well, I think my husband is hoping.
