May 3, 2023, 5:12 PM

The state of Colorado will give drivers a chance to let the Fourth be with them year-round, not just tomorrow (May 4th).

The Colorado DMV will begin auctioning off 12 “Star Wars” themed license plates on Thursday, a date commonly celebrated by movie fans with the phrase “May the 4th Be With You.” The plates contain phrases like “MAY-4TH,” “MR-VADER,” “CHEWY,” and “MY-X-WING.”

Bidding will start at 100-dollars for each plate, with proceeds going to the Colorado Disability Funding Committee.

Bids will be accepted at 8 a.m. on Thursday, and the auction will close at 7 p.m. next Thursday.

Here are the choices:

  • AKBAR
  • ANAKIN
  • BOBA
  • CHEWY
  • FETT
  • MAY4TH
  • MRVADER
  • MYXWING
  • OB1WAN
  • RED2
  • REDFIVE
  • STARWAR
