- Nothing like Tom Welling
I was surprised to learn that Tom Welling, who plays Clark Kent in Smallville, is almost 30 years old. There are some great pictures in this calendar and I'm looking forward to seeing more in the 2007 calendar. I'm disappointed in some respects that the "new" Superman films haven't incorporated Tom Welling in them. Perhaps they will.

- Get it while you can
I had been intending to get this calendar way back when I first read about it in the middle of 05 on a "Smallville" fansite but I kept holding off on it until one day my sister gave it to me as a surprise. She had bought it at a calendar store for about 15 dollars and I thought she had paid $5 too much since it was only like $10 on amazon but now I see that even though she paid a little more then what people who bought it here did, at least she got it unlike all those who can't get it at a fair price or can't get it at all. I should have known these were going to run out since all the other "Smallville" calendars that were released before were out of stock too. I think WB or whoever makes them only makes enough to get a good profit but not enough to risk having leftovers. Next year, I might buy a few and sell the extras when it runs out of stock. The pictures aren't AWESOME but there good enough and there are a few great ones, so I can't give it a bad score.

- Not that great
Yes, this calendar does exist--back in November '05 it was available at the local Barnes & Noble here in Charlottesville, VA. I looked at it and didn't think the pictures were that great, so I didn't buy it, thinking that if I decided I wanted it I could always get it later. I wish I had bought it then. It's ridiculous that it's out of stock and some people are paying $40 for it on eBay. In my opinion it's not worth any more frustration--it's not that great.

- Disappointing
I ALSO ordered this item as a gift way back in Dec. I patiently waited for the item to ship out; first I received an e-mail confirmation saying this item is taking longer to get than expected etc etc...and they asked would you still want to wait or cancel...so I said yes, i'll wait even though it was already the middle of Jan.

Then the next day I received another e-mail saying this is item is no longer available.....pretty disappointing =(

the good thing is - at least they didn't charge me

- Pass on the '06; you'll need the '07 by the time it arrives
I ordered this calendar as a Christmas present for my friend at the beginning of December with a shipping estimate of about the 16th of December, and the 16th of January is approaching and it still apparently has not shipped. In my opinion I should receive 1/12th of it for free since my friend won't be able to use the January page; along with a complimentary Christmas gift for next year. But instead I decided that I would do the world a favor and save them the embarrassment of wrapping and giving an empty box with an IOU note as a gift. You can't use an IOU note to keep track of the date. So please do ME a favor and pass on this calendar no matter how attractive you think an actor might be. They're not very attractive when they're stealing your hard earned greenbacks, think about that. Oh and by the way I've also been forced to give this item one star of which it doesn't deserve since to my knowledge it may not even exist. Thank You.
