Happy May The 4th To You Today (Monday)! I enjoyed a fabulous (you could say, “out of this world”) experience over the past weekend (May 2 & 3) celebrating the annual May The 4th event.
This year the annual event was held at the Central Library. It’s awesome to catch up once again with my crazy and fun galactic friends and meet new creative ones. The fun event is organised by Afri Ayub.
May The 4th 2026 Commemorative Patch (above image). Cool event logo is designed by Jeffrey Koh’s Flabslab.
May The 4th 2026 Commemorative Poster (above image). The event drew encouraging and massive weekend crowds comprising Star Wars fans and book-loving families on both event days (2 and 3 May, Saturday and Sunday).
My May The 4th Event Stash (above image). Some are kind gifts, some are paid. Dig my official Lucasfilm corporate T-shirts.
Charity Photo Drive for Kandang Kerbau Hospital (above image). $10 a pose with galactic icons and the proceeds go towards a good cause.
The Chew Family’s AT-AT Walker (above image). “All Terrain Armoured Transport” Walker. Always great to see the youngsters getting into the swing of things. I suspect their parents had played major roles in building the masterpiece, a lot of silver duct tapes and glue-gun action. Family bonding time! Nice!

Awesome Katana Saber by SaberMach (above image). The blade is actually lighted. Look for Kit to buy this and other exclusively cool lightsabers. Me in my Star Wars Jolly Rogers racing shirt.
My buddy Chewbacca (above image). Always great to hang out with Alfred Lim.
Thanks for my exclusive personalised Chewbacca racing shirt, Alfred! I liked that it had “Rock Photographer” next to my name.
Icons Of The Galaxy Indeed (above image). Reading good books is important, even Chewbacca goes to the Central Library to read good books.
The above poignant b/w image is dedicated to the loving memory of Carrie Fisher.

The Food Dudes – 1 (above image). First day post-event chow down session with Leonard, Andrew, Desmond and Honey. Yes, Singaporeans’ favourite pastime is eating. A close second is shopping. Third is queueing. Eating Western.

My May The 4th Event Stash – 2. Exclusive Obi -Wan Kenobi ILM VFX 2022 Crew Pin (above image). Only given to the ILM VFX team that worked on the Obi -Wan Kenobi mini series. You may have guessed, Obi-Wan Kenobi is my all-time favourite hero from the Star Wars enterprise.
Here’s to next fun May The 4th 2027!
