Hasbro has been sending out a slick little desktop calendar to their PR contacts this week that counts down to the big September 4th The Force Awakens toy release (although the calendar actually started on May 4th). JTA received ours today. Check out the cover image below and stick to our social media outlets and we'll bring you daily updates as the countdown progresses!

Dear Star Wars Fans,

Before looking to the future and a brand-new line of Hasbro toys from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, we want you to join us in looking back at nearly four decades of Kenner and Hasbro Star Wars history. The enclosed calendar will count down the days until Force Friday on September 4, 2015, the day the long-awaited toys from The Force Awakens finally hit store shelves!

As you join us on our journey, we encourage you to share your favorite entries on social media using the hashtag #ForceFridayCountdown.

Eagle-eyed viewers will notice that some of the images Hasbro used were provided by JTA :-)
