It is a dark period for rebellion. Although the death star was destroyed, the imperial troops hunted the rebel forces of their hidden base and chased them through the galaxy. Sampling the Imperial Starfleet dreaded, a group of freedom fighters led by Luke Skywalker has established a new secret base on the world of away from Hoth. The evil Lord Dark Vader, obsessed with the search for the young Skywalker, sent thousands of distant probes on the borders of space …

Thus, started the opening tablet of “The Empire Strikes Back”, the sequel to the “Star Wars” blockbuster which would be known as the fifth chapter of the ScoS Skywalker. Just as Dark Vader was obsessed with the search for his distant son, fans will also be obsessed with finding him some of the new Equipment and Cool collectibles that will arrive at Star Wars Day to celebrate the 45th anniversary of one of the biggest sequences of all time (and the first film of which Harrison Ford was really happy).
While the Disney store closed all its old brick and mortar locations inside shopping centers, just like George Lucas could not stop playing with “Empire Strikes back” after its release, the beloved The Disney store has not stopped selling new collectibles and online equipment and in target stores. This year, marking 45 years since the theatrical release of “Empire Strikes Back”, is no exception.

/ Film is happy to exclusively start part of the new “Star Wars” merchant who will be on sale in the Disney store from May 4, 2025, including a batch of shirts with classic art of suite, a special creature style hat, a cup with a certain ice battle and a limited edition doll of the most courageous princess.
Discover the new collectibles and used equipment “Empire Strikes back” and equipment below!
The Empire is back in style
First of all, Disney Store has new shirts that will be useful for anyone who will soon plan a trip to Hoth. While the adult fleece shirt presents illustrations of the original “Star Wars”, including Princess Leia in a much more revealing top that she has never worn in the film, the other of the clothes “Empire Striks Back” is inspired by the classic illustrations of the suite.

A long -sleeved shirt uses the illustrations of the 1980 poster, including many characters and ships presented in the film, supervised by the Dark Vador helmet watching them on the stars.
In addition, a short-sleeved t-shirt uses art concept of the Battle of Laser Battle between Luke Skywalker and Dark Vader on Cloud City
Meanwhile, this Jersey sweatshirt is inspired by the planet of the swamps of Dagobah (part of which was shot in the pool of George Lucas), where Luke Skywalker meets the former master of Jedi Sage Yoda, who continues to the encouragement of the ghost of Obi-Wan Kenobi. The front presents a “Empire Strike Back” 45th Anniversary logo from a swarm swarm from Tie-Dye, but the back presents illustrations by Yoda on Dagobah which should be familiar to the longtime fans of the franchise.

Finally, for those who are not looking for a little clumsy, Disney Store will also sell this tauntaun hat, with a design that looks like creatures that Han Solo and Luke Skywalker lead through the Tundras of Hoth. While the bill acts like the mouth, swollen horns and blurred ears sound on the sides and the top. Personally, I really hope that the interior of the hat looks like the intestines of the tauntaun, when Han solo cuts his loose courier to keep a hot glacial luke skywalker. Bonus points if it smells so bad.
The battle of Hoth heats up on this cool cup
For those who love the iconography of the Battle of Hoth of the first act of “Empire Strikes back” (which had the help of the American army) and a pretty hot coffee, hot tea or chocolate will be happy to find a cup that combines these two interests in a cup sufficiently cool to display on a shelf.

The cup itself has a 3D design with flying snow pins to attack the imperial walkers attacking the echo base. One of the speeders has launched its towing cable, which is broadcast on the cup while it starts to wrap around the legs of the AT. Meanwhile, one side of the cup has a familiar image of the classic art concept of “Empire Strikes Back”, with Luke Skywalker in crouching equipment outside a crushed speeder in the snow. You cannot fully see this full part of the cup in the images provided, but a part is visible on the left side.
As for the handle, it is freezing and rocky, a bit like the lair in which Luke finds himself captured by the Mortel Wampa, whose drool on the set was surprisingly edible.

This princess Leia doll would be just away from a wookiee
Finally, for collectors, Disney Store will have a Princess Leia doll in a limited edition in the Hoth equipment that she carries in the first part of the film. Leia is equipped with soft products and a blaster product, as well as glasses and a welding tool that she uses to help repair the Millennium Falcon. In addition, it is accompanied by the faithful R2-D2 droid, adapted to the Princess Leia doll.
