Force Friday is here! A brand new holiday established to make people line up and buy toys. If you can find one, Hasbro’s magnetic BB-8 droid is probably the most desired. My inbox tells me that you can also buy many toys at Target.
- An exclusive, remote controlled BB-8 droid from Hasbro that moves and sounds just like it does in the film
- Bladebuilder compatible light sabers with lights and sounds at the push of a button and more than 100 combinations
- All-new and collectible Star Wars-themed Micro Machines and Battle Sets
- A LEGO® Star Wars First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter that lets you intercept and destroy the enemy
