Any adult who is into Star Wars is really only considering episodes 4-6, really.
You mean A New Hope through Return of the Jedi? I saw all of them when they were in the theater and episodes 1-3 (starting with Phantom Menace) were the best. Revenge of the Sith is the best of all of them. And actually, George Lucas first imagines the battle between Kenobi/Anakin and then expanded out from there. The entire series was designed to arrive at the battle between Kenobi and Anakin.
And what “stuff” from what episodes would you want as a fan? Note all the responses so far for reference. (Hint: the Jaba/ Darth/ Leia mercy isn’t from the last group of releases as a big hint). The story has nothing to do with the nostalgia.

Without looking, guess the current age of someone who saw The Phantom Menace at age 9.

If you are a Star Wars nerd, what gift would you like for under around $65ish?
Do they make Ahsoka Tano blow up dolls?
I'd rather have a Carrie Fisher in Jabba's barge blow up doll!
Oof. Good point. How did they decide on THAT outfit? I mean, are the Huts really attracted to human women? I’m openminded but the whole interspecies thing is a bit odd.

A LEGO Star Wars diorama that you can find in your price point. The Death Star Trench Run, for example. Or a LEGO Star Wars helmet.

My son saw this Star Wars timeline book in a museum bookstore and really wants it... will probably get it for his birthday. Not "quirky" but definitely good for a Star Wars fan. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0744060877/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

I'd definitely look at Pottery barn Kid/Teen, as they have a wide assortment. I'd go maybe more subtle for an adult.
That said, my kid got a tauntaun sleeping bag a few years ago and loves it - but I just googled searched and looks like they aren't made anymore (I think we paid some ridiculous amount, too, like $100 for something the equivalent of a snuggie.).
My BIL just got a hawaiin shirt with little grogus all over all, along with the resistance logo.
Other places to look - BoxLunch, Hottopic.

Star Wars is licensed to so many products, so you can find a lot of subtly themed items. Corkcicle and Simply Modern have a lot of insulated water bottles. Heroes and Villains has some good apparel https://heroesvillains.com/collections/star-wars
