Star Wars fans, get ready to don your red robes and warm up the blue milk — Life Day is officially upon us! The unofficial holiday takes place each November 17th, celebrating the wonderfully weird 1978 special that introduced Wookiee tradition to the galaxy. Once again, The Disney Store is marking the occasion with a lineup that blends deep lore, high-end replicas, and a whole lot of cozy-cute energy.

The star of this year’s character merch is the Chewbacca Life Day Talking Action Figure ($35), styled in traditional Wookiee Life Day attire. In Star Wars canon, the annual ceremony takes place at the Tree of Life on Kashyyyk, and this figure leans into that heritage with detailed sculpting and button-activated character sounds! Alongside Chewie is an ultra-detailed Loth-Cat plush ($100) that includes its own sound effects — and from the preview shots, it’s pretty much as adorable and screen-accurate as a plush gets.

But the drop doesn’t stop there. The collection also includes stunning new lightsaber replicas inspired by The Stranger ($325) and Baylan Skoll ($250), bringing the mystique of Ahsoka straight to your shelf. Whether you’re a saber purist or just love a dramatic Force-wielder moment, these pieces are guaranteed conversation starters

The drop also includes new collectible helmets, action figures and tees. It’s a small but mighty capsule that blends deep-cut lore with feel-good holiday vibes, making it the perfect way for fans to celebrate the galaxy’s most heartfelt tradition. You can head over to the Disney Store online to check out all the new Star Wars collectibles and gear.

May your Life Day be merry, bright, and full of merch!
