Star Wars: Unlimited

Star Wars: Unlimited Holiday Gift Guide 2026

Two lists: one for somebody who is just getting into Star Wars: Unlimited, and one for a player who already has the basics. Every gift here is listed on TCGplayer or Amazon.

Which list?

Start with one question: do they already have a deck they play? If they don't, the first list is complete products that come ready to play, and a Star Wars fan can choose by character. If they do, the second list is booster displays and upgrades for the table.

Older starters can sell above their original price once they are out of print. Spark of Rebellion's starter, from the game's first set, is an example, which is why the pick below is a later one.

For someone just getting into Star Wars: Unlimited

Twilight of the Republic Two-Player Starter

The best first gift for two people. It has two ready-to-play decks, Ahsoka Tano against General Grievous, along with two paper playmats, two deck boxes, 40 counters and a quickstart rulebook. The box also includes 10 different cards that are only found in this starter.

Spotlight Deck Pair: Emperor Palpatine & Luke Skywalker

From Ashes of the Empire: two decks, one for each leader, so the gift is a ready-made rivalry. Homeworlds has Spotlight Decks for Chewbacca and Grand Moff Tarkin too, though they weren't listed for sale yet when this guide was written.

A damage tracker

A game is won by destroying the opponent's base, so every game needs a way to count damage on it. Gamegenic's officially licensed Damage Pad is an acrylic tracker that counts from 0 to 49. TurnZero HQ also tracks each base's HP in the app.

For players who already have the basics

Homeworlds

The fall 2026 set: 260 cards about the invaders and defenders of homeworlds across the galaxy. A booster display is the gift for a player who wants to open the new set. Homeworlds also comes in Carbonite Edition packs, a premium version of the booster, for a collector.

Premium Tokens PRO

Gamegenic's licensed set of 55 double-sided acrylic tokens: damage counters, shield and experience tokens, the initiative token and more. It replaces the cardboard counters from starters and booster packs, and it's a gift that comes out every game.

A Double Deck Pod

Gamegenic's Star Wars: Unlimited deck box holds 120 double-sleeved cards, room for two decks, which is what a player carries to an event.

A Hyperspace or Showcase leader

For a collector, a special version of the leader they play is the most personal gift. Ask which leader and which version they want: Hyperspace, Showcase and foil versions of the same card can differ a lot in price.

If you're not sure what they need

A TCGplayer gift card lets them pick the card or product themselves. It's the safe choice when you don't know which leader they play.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I get a Star Wars: Unlimited player for Christmas?

For someone just starting, the Twilight of the Republic Two-Player Starter. For a player who already has the basics, a Homeworlds booster display, Gamegenic's Premium Tokens PRO, or a Hyperspace or Showcase version of the leader they play.

What is the best Star Wars: Unlimited gift for a beginner?

A Two-Player Starter. The Twilight of the Republic starter has two ready-to-play decks, Ahsoka Tano against General Grievous, with playmats, deck boxes and counters, so two people can learn the game from one box.

Is Icons a good set for new Star Wars: Unlimited players?

It is designed to be. Fantasy Flight Games built Icons as a welcoming step up from the Intro Battle: Hoth set, focused on the core mechanics, and it follows Homeworlds in November 2026. TCGplayer lists it as Icons 2027 Edition.

Do Star Wars: Unlimited cards use standard-size sleeves?

Yes. They are standard size, the same as Magic and Pokémon cards, so any standard sleeve fits.
