Keep a keen eye out (and ready wallet) for limited edition SW-themed clothed patches (see above image / 5 x designs to collect), resin collectibles (directly below) - with all profits benefitting the KKH Health Fund.

I'd recommend you check out hashtag #maythe4thsg on Instagram to see further updates :)

Grateful to the good people at @imaginenationstudios for coming through given the short notice. We have prepared a small run of Spray2D2 R2-KT edition to be sold at #maythe4thsg next week. All profits will be donated to the KKH Health Fund. Take home an uber cute piece and do good at the same time! #maythe4th #starwars #r2kt #r2d2

Local collective of "doodle-bandits" Band of Doodlers will be doodling "live" and offering up 3 large canvases for charity auction at the end of the festival. We've previously featured #StarWarsDay SG 2016 (below snap), so this is definitely something to look forward to, IMHO.

Also available would be live doodles on mini canvases (Limited to 200 pieces), Check out the art of BOD on their Instagram @bandofdoodlers, and of course featured here #onTOYSREVIL!

Artwork by @bandofdoodlers for auction at #starwarsdaysg #maythe4thsg happening now at OCBC Square in Kallang Wave Mall - last day today Sunday at 8pm! #sarwarsday
