I always found the lack of pink on this card to be telling.  Thanks to stsw2112 for the pic.

 Prints on paper are unfortunatley completely useless as a colour reference. The person responsible for the printing process will colour balance the image themselves to suit their own aesthetic and for technical reasons in the CMYK printing process. It will have no relation at all to what is on the film itself.

Cool image though.

The colour grading of that card though really is very poor though, doesn't look right at all for a warm desert planet. How there could release the card looking so wrong I don't know... Here's the same shot regraded using my settings (looking warm and yellow like it should):
