Disappointed with the layout of the calendar- the numbers are too small for a wall calendar. The top portion of the calendar is made of lenticular art- meaning the pictures are moving as you move the calendar. And the bottom portion of the calendar is divided into 2 parts-pictures on the left hand side and the small number calendar dates on the right hand side. That's it!!! Last item- the pages for each month are peeled off so you know they are held together by glue, therefore, you have to be careful when you flip through the pages to see the months ahead or just to look at the artwork. They will come unglued if you are not careful!!!

As a fan of Transformers, I definitely enjoy seeing different artworks of the original characters. I bought this calendar for that purpose, but it does not provide much more. The actual Calendar is very small, taking up a small fraction of each page. It is impossible to write notes or anything else on it, just a way of knowing approximately wot day it is. The fact that it is tear away is also kind of a downside. Overall it is pleasing to G1 fans, but only as a monthly poster. So I like it, but I needed to buy another Calendar to make up for this ones shortcomings.

The art is great for the calendar. Unfortunately, the 'calendar' part (i.e. the actual printing of the months) is small and you have trouble reading it from across the room. The BIG let down is that the manufacturer has shrink wrapped the calendar so tightly that it comes out of the wrapping curved. It's so warped that it doesn't hang flat on a wall. Matter of fact, I had to get a string to thread through the holes to hang the calendar, it was that bent.
