Save your spare change in style with Darth Vader and Yoda ceramic banks. The 7" sculpted banks come in a high gloss finish and are packaged in a four-color gift box. Fans can expect the banks to hit stores by May 1.

If you'd rather save your coins and get a tasty treat at the same time, the Darth Vader gumball machine may be more your style. This 9" antique gumball machine has a metal base with a 4" Darth Vader PVC topper that mounts on top of a glass globe. The machine accepts all coins and vends a variety of candies, nuts and, of course, bubblegum; and is packaged in a four-color gift box. The gumball machine is also planned for release on May 1.

Hoth Battle Snow Globe

EDITOR'S NOTE: ONE OF MY FAVORITE ITEMS IN MY STAR WARS COLLECTION IS A DEPARTMENT 56 BATTLE OF HOTH SNOW GLOBE. WIND IT UP AND IT PLAYS THE IMPERIAL MARCH AND A SNOWSPEEDER FLIES AROUND A AT-AT. BUT THE COTINUOUS SNOW THING HERE SOUNDS AWFUL DARN GROOVY.
