    Knuckles mock up box
    This mock-up box doesn't match up! It says 1994 on the title, but then uses modern (post SA) Knuckles art. Then, look at the Egg Pawn, it should be orange (the final product/toy was) but it appears matte/silver or un-painted look.

Here is a big wall calendar from 1994.
It was a Japan exclusive item, and had 2 months per large size page, so there's only technically 6 pages to the whole thing. The front cover here uses nice matte silver ink & has cool looking Sonic & Tails in front of the date. As you can see, the "Segasonic" branding was still in effect for this year.

In the gallary are all the pages of the calendar. It uses the famous "Sonic Screen Saver" art that was all done by 1 artist who has this particular style. There's way more art than this, they just chose a select few pieces for the calendar, then applied them to various colored backgrounds to make the pages.
The art always has cute scenes with Sonic & Tails doing a fun activity, and then lots of little detail in the backgrounds for you to spot. (A little alien on the meteor, Eggman hiding in the woods, etc) The images are always super colorful, fun and friendly. They are ideal for a calendar but...what are all those numbers down the edge?
Those are the dates--so how are you supposed to really use it? Where are you supposed to write for the dates that are too close to the art? Also there's no dividers between the numbers to help you keep within the dates.
The tiny text in the bottom corner is the 'live a life of power' quote, and it's the same on all the pages. Why bottles in the photo? Because the calendar rolls up/probably also came in a roll.
