In a bold move that has left both fans and calendars
deeply confused,
Hasbro has officially kicked off its
Star Wars Day celebrations on
May 1st, three full days before the internationally recognized day,
May the 4th.
ToyFarce investigated...
"
We'll have a livestream packed with reveals, teases, and at least one mention of 'pipeline'" said a
Hasbro representatives to reassure fans that the change was intentional. "
We just felt like the Force shouldn't be limited by arbitrary dates..." the
Hasbro spokesperson added. "
Why celebrate May the 4th on May 4th, when you can celebrate it on May 1st... or honestly, whenever it's most convenient for pre-orders?"
"
May the 4th Be With You, now on May 1st!"
Collectors quickly embraced the new timeline, with many taking to social media to wish each other a heartfelt
"May the 1st be with you" while others cautiously asked if they should also expect
May 6th to arrive sometime around
May 3rd.
Some fans praised the decision, noting it gives them more time to miss pre-orders before the items they want inevitably sell out:. "
I love it" said one collector refreshing multiple tabs. "
By the time May 4th actually gets here, everything will already be gone. It really captures the spirit of Star Wars collecting."
Hasbro has not ruled out celebrating other holidays early, since they have already done it multiple times, with the
Star Wars the Black Series Holiday Edition Valentine's Day Ewok showing up at
Christmas.
More news at 11:00... "
Next year's May the 4th event could take place sometime in late April, depending on vibes."
