Disney Store Unveils Star Wars Collection for 45th Anniversary of "The Empire Strikes Back"

In celebration of the 45th anniversary of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, the Disney Store is launching a special commemorative collection on May 4, 2025—just in time for Star Wars Day.

The new line pays homage to the iconic 1980 film with a mix of apparel, collectibles, and accessories inspired by the icy planet of Hoth and beloved characters. Fans can expect shirts featuring vintage-style artwork from the movie, perfect for showcasing their galactic pride.

Among the most anticipated items is a limited-edition Princess Leia doll in her Hoth gear, accompanied by a mini R2-D2—a must-have for collectors. Also debuting is a mug depicting the fierce battle on Hoth, and a fuzzy Tauntaun hat that’s equal parts cozy and nostalgic.

Ahead of the main launch, Disney will release a special Star Wars Hoth collection on April 18. This early drop includes Hoth-themed jerseys and a Loungefly mini backpack adorned with an AT-AT walker design, ideal for fans eager to gear up before May the Fourth.

Whether you’re a longtime Jedi or new to the saga, the Disney Store’s latest Star Wars collection offers something for every fan looking to celebrate one of the franchise’s most beloved chapters.
