Star Wars fan? Than this one’s definitely for you.

We never thought we’d put Apollo Jackson (aka, the only good thing to come from any Bachelor series), and something like Star Wars together in a story, but here we are! And we’re oddly keen about it.

Turns out Apollo is a major fan of the franchise, which it makes sense given the fact that he’s completely into comic books and makes a living off being a magician.

So, he took the time out of his busy day to educate us at Girlfriend HQ on a very important day that is coming up – May 4th.

Basically, Christmas for Star Wars enthusiasts.

Whether you’re obsessed with Star Wars, or you have a special someone in your life that loves to celebrate that day, Apollo is here to help a sister out. 

In the above video, he shares tips and ideas on what to do on that day, how to get in the spirit of things… and if you’re game (literally), to buy this absolutely incredibly piece of tech that will let you lightsaber the shit out of a (droid?).

The Lenovo Star Wars: Jedi Challenges is an AR (augmented reality – think: Pokemon Go) style game that allows your to completely immerse yourself into the Star Wars realm. 

It is available from Lenovo.com, JB-Hi-Fi and Harvey Norman, and you can also download the app on either iOS or Android.

I gave the whole thing a go, and just sayin’… I smahed it.

But what ELSE did we learn from the great Apollo? Well, he has a huge crush on Jennifer Lopez. (Same). Not only that, but he really is a fantastic magician in person… and he’s probably the only human in the world who looks hot while doing a Chewbacca impression. But hey, that’s just our opinion.

Here’s a bonus clip of Apollo playing with the Lenovo headset in our office, while nearly taking me out completely:
