If you take a peek over at the Disney Store, you’ll find a few youth Star Wars Rebels shirts (made just for boys) that unfortunately exclude Hera Syndulla and Sabine Wren. For example, there’s Cast Blast, Do or Do Not, Rebel with a Cause, and Star Sleeper. There is one Sabine Wren shirt, where she is joined by Chopper and Ezra, but the shirt is part of the “Create Your Own” feature that allows customers to make their own shirts. Her Universe came to the rescue recently and provided Star Wars fangirls both adult and youth-sized Star Wars Rebels shirts, but the issue of excluding the female characters in merchandise aimed for boys remains (as does excluding the female fanbase).
Though it doesn’t resolve the main issue entirely, the author of the Star Wars Rebels: The Visual Guide, Adam Bray, found new Lucasfilm licensed shirts over at Amazon that include our favorite females from the animated series.
