Jay Franco Star Wars Classic Throw Blanket
A Blanket That Brings You A New Hope

There area few movies that every Star Wars fan should own, and the original is one of them. After all, it still remains one of the best. So, seeing the flick represented in this throw blanket is great.
What’s even better is how the tribute has been done. The comic images of moments from the movie look excellent. Each image is detailed, and most of them include plenty of color. As such, the blanket will stand out in your home.
Star Wars - The Mandalorian Nightfall Throw Blanket
A Sunset Makes Everything Look Better
Din Djarin features front and center on this throw blanket. But don’t worry, because Grogu is here, too, sticking out of his bag. Behind them both is a beautiful sunset.
You could argue that Din Djarin is the coolest-looking hero in the Star Wars universe. As such, blankets like this with him front-and-center always look good. Yet, this one is extra special because of the sunset in the background. It helps create a very striking visual.
However, while Mando standing in front of a sunset is a great concept, the blanket wouldn’t be nearly as good without the incredible level of artwork that brings the concept to life. Both Din Djarin and Grogu look exactly like their Disney Plus show counterparts. Plus, all the colors are a treat for the eyes.
Star Wars Rebel Forces Tapestry Throw Blanket
The Empire’s Biggest Nightmare
The main gang from the original trilogy feature on the front of this tapestry throw blanket. There is Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2D2, and C-3PO. They look like they’re all posing for a picture.
Luke, Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2D2, and C-3PO are critical all the way through the original trilogy. Therefore, it’s nice to see them all together on the front of this throw blanket. And it really does feel like you’re looking at them because they all look so much like they do in the movies.
The colors, in particular, are perfect, from the blue on R2D2 to the gold on C-3PO. What’s also impressive are the faces of the human characters. Han Solo and Princess Leia bear a perfect resemblance to the characters. Luke isn’t quite as perfect, but he still looks a bit like Mark Hamill.
Star Wars Grogu Sherpa Back Throw Blanket
As Many Baby Yodas As You Can Handle
Star Wars’s cutest character, Grogu, is all over this Sherpa back blanket. There are a bunch of him. Each one is up to something. Some are eating, others are touching something they shouldn’t, and a few are using the Force. Around them is a blue sky with stars in it.
Because of his cute face and charming antics, Grogu is a comforting character for plenty of people. Now, he can provide you with even more comfort because of this Sherpa throw blanket. It’s very soft and comfy.
Plus, it’s nice to look at due to the humourous art of Grogu all over it. Some of the things the little Grogus are doing are references to what he’s done in the Mandalorian. For example, some of them are flipping the little switch Mando told him not to flip.
Star Wars The Mandalorian Ahsoka Throw Blanket
Live-Action Ahsoka
This throw blanket is based on Ahsoka’s stint in The Mandalorian. That is why it says “Mandalorian” in block letters at the top of it. Underneath that, you can see Ahsoka standing proudly with her lightsabers in hand. The background contains various light colors, such as light blue, orange, and yellow.
Fans of the Clone Wars series have always loved Ahsoka, but she has started to become more well-known since she appeared in the Mandalorian and her own live-action series. As a result, she features in much more merchandise—just look at any collection ofthe best Star Wars Funko Pops!, and you’ll see her a lot. She also now has a blanket dedicated to her.
She looks great on the front, standing there with her two lightsabers. The colors are the most note-worthy aspect of the blanket, though, because they’re very bright and Summer-like, which is rare for a Star Wars throw. It makes for a nice change of pace.
Star Wars Tapestry Throw Blanket Midnight Vader
The Might Of The Empire
Darth Vader stands proudly on the front of this blanket while holding his red lightsaber. Behind him are a pair of Stormtroopers, and above them are a few Empire ships.
While the Emperor runs the Empire, Darth Vader is definitely the face of the whole thing. So, it’s fitting for him to be front and center on this blanket celebrating the villainous group. He looks fantastic on the front, as the likeness is really great. The same could be said about the Stormtroopers behind him. They all look like photos of the characters.
The colors are equally impressive. Of course, with this being about Vader and the Empire, it had to include plenty of black. Yet, the inclusion of some purple, too, really adds an extra bit of visual appeal to the blanket.
