Star Wars Day releases: In recent years, The Home Depot has emerged as the preferred supplier for ornate and massive seasonal decorations, especially for Halloween. Given that May 4th, also known as Star Wars Day, falls around Halloween’s midway point, it makes sense that they would be bringing something special for the fans.
Perhaps in the form of an animated, LED 7-foot Vader with accessories for Halloween, Christmas, and everyday display.
Classic soundbites and noises, realistic animatronic movements, and interchangeable holiday-specific accessories—such as a candy cane light saber, a crimson light saber, and a Death Star ornament—will all be present in the Darth Vader figure.
Why is Star Wars Day on May 4th?
Star Wars Day is observed on May 4th, thanks to a brilliant pun.
As every moviegoer is aware, “May the force be with you” is a popular way to wish someone luck in the movies.
All things in the universe are connected by an energy field known as the Force. Saying “May the Force be with you” expresses a request for the Force to act in your favor.
May 4 became the natural choice when fans observed that “May the Force” sounds like “May the Fourth.”
