The research of 1,006 Star Wars fans, ranging from casual aficionados to superfans, was commissioned by Barclaycard to celebrate Star Wars day (today, 4 May 2017). To celebrate this day, Brick Fanatics opted to build a little setting for a fan favourite Star Wars character.

Star Wars Day takes place every year on May 4th, which is fairly common knowledge.
