Star Wars - The Saga 2012 Day At A Time Box Calendar

 (3 customer reviews)

A nice little start to your day. Wake up with Obi-Wan, R-2, Darth, and all your favorites. Daily calendar that also lets you see the month at a glance ...

I have used a Star Wars desk calendar every year for the past 5 or so years. This is without a doubt the poorest ever released. While the paper/color has improved over past versions, (previously it was a non-glossy newspaper looking print) the nicer paper with brighter semi-glossy color printing can't make up for content that is just plain stupid. It looks as if they took random screen captures with no particular character or subject and threw them together. I cannot stress enough how RANDOM the screen captures are. In some shots there's not even a character at all; In some their backs are facing; Some shots are blurry action sequences; Some are just a random hallway or field - SERIOUSLY.
What's sad is how little effort it would've taken to make this decent. Who picks these pictures?!? If George Lucas actually flipped through this, I'm sure he would be embarrassed and angry.

A Star Wars fan & collector for over 30 years.
I have been purchasing this calendar for years.

Ok, nice colorful photos used. Covering all six films. BUT
Here is my complaint.
If covering the six films that SHOULD, KEY WORD HERE SHOULD, HAVE TWO MONTHS EACH RIGHT? WRONG. Wrong, wrong, wrong

Makes no sense. When episode 1 Menace should have January & February the month does NOT end until March 1? Why the extra day? Have to look not every film is done wrong in the month distribution.
Where there are good photos used. But, for episode six Jedi Isn't a key & memorable part of the film seeing Carrie (Princess Leia) in the metal bikini? No photo of that. Sorry guys.

Let's just say the calendar is good BUT should have been great.

And, part of the box has the same design as the 2011 day calendar. A Clone trooper NOT a storm trooper or a change?
