Star War Idenitities Review : 7 things not to be missed
May the Force be with You
From Jan 30 to Jul 13, The Force will be in Singapore as Artscience Museum and Prior Pro combine their forces to bring you STAR WARS identities. Singapore is billed as the final stop of this exhibition final global tour destination. The next time you get your chance to see it in person will be when it makes its final stop at Lucas Museum of Narrative Arts.
We took a sneak peek at the exhibition and these are 7 things you should not miss if you are a Star Wars Fan.
Star Wars Identities: The Exhibition |
1 Boba Fett and the Storm Troopers Replicas
Army of One |
Say what you will, Boba Fett and Strom Troopers are iconic in the Star Wars Franchise. Many kids during the heydays would have preferred either of these to the Rebellion Forces as part of their toy collection. See them in their lifesize replicas at the exhibit.

2 Early rendition of Favourite Star Wars Characters
Early Jar Jar Binks |
From Master Yoga to the quirky Jar Jar Binks, see how they had evolved to their iconic appearances in the movie.
Interestingly, the image of Yoga started off as something resembling a gnome. We are just glad that they went for something green instead.
Do you know that Luke Skywalker was initially envisioned as a girl? They decided to twin him with Princess Leia after a few drafts!
You can check out the character development along with other interesting facts at selected individual character booth.

The Emperor |
3 These are not the Droids you are looking for
Star Wars was released in 1977 where droids do not exist ( except in the movies). Despite that, the creativity of George Lucas brought out several types of the droid in the movie. From Cp3o to R2D2 to BB8, everyone has their favourite droid.
The life-size replica of the Droids will surely delight many fans.
Look for the iconic painting of Cp30 and R2D2 in their early form. You would appreciate how much they had evolved when filming starts.
4 Ships of Star Wars
Other than the characters of Star Wars, the space ships in Star Wars are also recognised by fans.
Millennium Falcon |
The one that needs no introduction will be the Millennium Falcon. Check out other ships such as Imperial Star Destroyer, X-Wing, Tie Fighter and the iconic Slave 1.
