Holiday Gift Guide 2020: Danilo 2021 Star Wars Calendars and Diary

Choosing a new calendar for the coming year is not a decision to be taken lightly, whether buying for oneself or a loved one.  Granted, our 2020 calendars remained largely blank, but in the spirit of looking forwards and hoping for a better 2021, we are excited to guide you through Danilo’s new range of Star Wars calendars. UK Star Wars fans have a plethora of different designs to choose from, ensuring there is something for everyone from the newest fans to the oldest.

2020 will largely be remembered for all the wrong reasons, but there were some definite high points, including the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. As they did in 2017 on the anniversary of A New Hope, Danilo has chosen to celebrate the occasion with over half a dozen different products.

Let’s start by looking at the Classic 2021 12-inch Square Wall Calendar, priced at £9.99, which honours the anniversary with iconic imagery from the film. The calendar also has plenty of room to write all your important dates in the panels provided. If wall space is at a premium you will be pleased to know that Danilo also offers this calendar as a mini version featuring all the same imagery, available for just £4.99.

For many, the designs by Ralph McQuarrie hold a special place, and these images are the focus of the A3 Deluxe Collector’s Edition Calendar which also celebrates this key anniversary. The calendar features twelve classic designs which are printed on premium paper, and are removable and ready to frame. I am sure that many fans will love this calendar, and it is great value at £14.99.

If you prefer a desk calendar to a wall mounted one, a Classic Postcard Easel Calendar is also available featuring 12 of the key characters of The Empire Strikes Back, from Princess Leia to the Emperor. Each of the postcards is detachable and can be used to send a greeting to a loved one, friend or foe; priced at £5.99.

For those who prefer a physical diary to an electronic one, Danilo has created an A5 Classic 2021 Diary, costing £9.99, which features one of the posters from The Empire Strikes Back on its cover, as well as numerous images inside. You will be pleased to know that this one-week to two-page diary has plenty of room for notes and appointments, and includes address pages, notable dates, and a year-to-view calendar.

The final item in this range celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back is a Classic 2021 Calendar Gift Set Box which includes the Classic 12-inch Calendar, the A5 Diary, and a pen, all in a keepsake box, for just £19.99.

Those with a whole family to organise will love the 12-inch square Star Wars Family Calendar 2021, which includes all the features you need to plan your days and weeks ahead, with five columns enabling you to write what each family member is up to. This calendar features animated versions of our favourite Star Wars characters from across The Skywalker Saga and is priced at £9.99

The popular day-per-page desk block calendar returns for 2021, with a new all-paper design, ditching the plastic from previous years. Each page features facts and images of the characters, creatures, places, and technology from every Star Wars film so far and this is £9.99 too.

One of my favourite Danilo items is the Classic Desk Pad Calendar, and this also returns for 2021 with artwork featuring classic Kenner Star Wars action-figures. The desk pad has a page for each week of the year (along with a few extras) allowing you to plan your week, create a to-do list or just to doodle. These would make perfect stocking fillers, and cost just £6.99.

And there is more…. for fans of the The Mandalorian, Danilo has created three calendars inspired by the show. The Mandalorian Official 2021 12-inch Wall Calendar, priced at £9.99, features the 12 concept images, as seen during the end credits from the first season of the show, and provides plenty of space to write all your important dates in the boxes provided.

The Child, whose name we now know is Grogu, has captivated hearts everywhere, even among those who are not necessarily Star Wars fans, and The Child Official 2021 12-inch square calendar celebrates the cutest bounty in the galaxy, with 12 images/memes of the character taken directly from the show. If wall space is at a premium, Danilo also offers this as a mini version with all the same images. The Force is strong with this calendar, and it is sure to be enjoyed by anyone who receives it this holiday season. These are priced at £9.99 and £5.99 respectively.

There really is something for everyone, and you can order direct from Danilo with same day dispatch for in-stock items ordered before 2pm, Monday – Friday. Additionally, for every £5 spent they will plant a tree with Ecologi to replenish the paper used in their calendars for future years.
