Star Wars is a franchise that has been monetizing merch for more than 40 years and shows no signs of stopping. GameStop even has a Star Wars Day sales event, where you can save up to 40% on all things Star Wars: T-shirts, toys, video, and board games, collectibles, and even a popcorn maker. After all, now that Star Wars is a Disney brand, it’s taken full advantage of the license, creating a deluge of new merchandise and experiences for fans of all ages. Heck, there’s even a new Disney+ series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, premiering on May 27. And if a trip to Disney isn’t possible in the foreseeable future, you can always pick up some Joffrey’s French Roast coffee, marathon every Star Wars movie, and pretend you’re there. Pros:
