Time’s just about up for holiday shopping, and the pressure is on for anyone doing last-minute runs to the mall or searching online for the quickest delivery. If you’re looking for that perfect Star Wars, Lord Of The Rings, One Piece, Wonka, or Disney100 gift—don’t worry, io9's got you covered with this handy list of fandom retailers.

With locations you can visit—including BoxLunch, Target, Gap, and Forever 21, among others—procrastinators can set their minds at ease. There are also Amazon storefronts and online retailers offering two-day shipping, but we mostly recommend places you can pick up online orders in store. Plus, if you visit brick-and-mortar locations you can scope out any returns that have made their way back to shelves, which may include items sold out online.
