We don’t care if you love Star Wars or you couldn’t care less about it — the Sphero BB-8 App-Enabled Droid is a blast for anyone and everyone. Young or old… unless you hate fun, you’re going to have a good time with the BB-8 droid.

It launched ahead of the holidays a few months ago and it was almost impossible to find at the time. It was also pretty pricey since it was in such high demand. Now things have slowed down though, and you can snag a BB-8 toy for under $150 shipped on Amazon. Trust us, it’s worth it.

Here are some key details:

  • Authentic Movement: Guide your BB-8 with a smartphone or tablet
