Why is there a lack of Separatist merchandise?
At Galaxy’s Edge and merchandise in general, it seems like there is a big love for the original and sequel trilogies. Those who relish those two facets of the franchise have oodles of stuff to choose from when it comes to purchasing opportunities.
With that said, there is barely any Separatist stuff available for sale, whether they are in the parks or online. I’m personally a big fan of the Confederacy of Independent Systems in terms of aesthetics, so it’s disappointing that this faction barely gets any bones from Disney – something that forces me to places like Etsy or eBay to acquire merchandise.

Why do you think this is a reason? Is the group just not that popular overall among fans? If you like the group, what kinds of merchandise would you like to buy?
For me, I would love a solidly built jacket – one that looks sleek like a military uniform, but also comfortable enough for daily wear. It can be something that can be worn as cosplay alongside appropriate additions or donned casually to showcase that I am a Separatist fan.
Some formal apparel for work would be nice too – neckties, mainly. They are notable enough to inform those who are in the know, but subtle enough that they do not distract in garish ways.
