May The 4th Be With You, Happy Star Wars Day!

May 3, 2024 By ausretrogamer

May The 4th Be With You All

There are three certainties in life, Death, Taxes and Star Wars products to buy on Star Wars Day, May the 4th! This year is no exception, with our inbox being bombarded with Star Wars stuff and sales to tempt us.

Out of the three certainties, at least Star Wars products are fun. We still love our Stern Star Wars Comic Art pinball machine, but this year we are keen on some Lego Star Wars gear to celebrate May The 4th, like the new (and quite expensive at $239.99) Lego book, The Force of Creativity. Most of the book includes commentary from LEGO and Lucasfilm employees, providing an opportunity for plenty of fun anecdotes and information about product development and their (Lego and Lucasfilm) collaboration in creating Lego Star Wars sets.

The best bit about this year’s celebration is that the 4th falls on a Saturday, so no need to take a ‘sickie’ to use the Force. If you are that way inclined (being on the Dark Side of the Force), perhaps you can take a ‘sickie’ on Monday (May 6th) to celebrate May The Sith Be With You.

No matter which side you are on, Happy Star Wars Day to you all!
