On Tuesday, Disney revealed some of the Star Wars-themed merchandise coming to the D23 Expo in Anaheim, CA in July 2017.
Whenever there is a convention and Star Wars is involved in it, you can always expect new, fun Star Wars merchandise in the mix, as well.
With Disney’s D23 Expo, just around the corner in July, the official D23 blog is rolling out sneak peeks of new merchandise which attendees can view, pre-order or even purchase at the Expo. Since Star Wars is a Disney franchise now, some of the merchandise is Star Wars-themed, like the three mugs below:

The D23 blog post also promised new “apparel, accessories, drinkware, and… collectibles.” Some of the collectible items include limited edition Star Wars Elite Series Premium Action Figures in three different two-figure packs: Princess Leia and Darth Vader; Rey and Kylo Ren; and Jyn Erso and Orson Krennic.

Finally, Her Universe – a fashion company directed primarily at fangirls – will debut a “never-before-seen” Star Wars line of apparel. The items will be exclusive to the Disney Store but sold for the first time at the Expo.
Presumably, all of the items listed above are not D23 Expo exclusives, and therefore they will debut online shortly after the convention.
In addition to revealing new merchandise, Disney is expected to preview The Last Jedi, the young Han Solo movie and possibly the next standalone Star Wars film. Even if you’re not at the Expo the weekend of July 14-16, keep an eye on the internet for Star Wars news out of the “Walt Disney Live-Action Films” panel on July 15.
