avoca Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 ok, got calendar today. it's okay. more or less like I had expected. the only unexpected thing was how little space there's on the pages as in calendar (dates list).. none at all. it's literally an A3 size pic all over it. the close ups (not pics of him singing) are quite impressive. the stickers are cute, basically the images on the pages, but good ones. and btw, it stands printed on the calendar 100% unofficial. just thought to report this.

LoveLove Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 What a great idea! I can't believe I haven't thought of this before. What a great way to start the new year. Making my own is now my project. I've got loads of pics to choose from. Thanks for the idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Eyes Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Grrrrrrrrr, the shipping date of 27th October has been and gone and now the release date on Play.Com has changed YET AGAIN to 5th November (this is the 3rd change from the original release date of 1st October) Perhaps I'll finally receive my calendar at the top of the week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I've got my choice of pictures for my own unofficial calendar down to about 15 now Doing the calendar layout is proving to be more of a problem. I think I might cheat and get one of those pre-printed ones where you are supposed to add photos of your family, and use my Mika pictures instead. :mf_rosetinted:The Mikasgasmic version is taking longer. I am having to study the pictures very closely to make sure I use the right ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinghorse83 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 is it an official one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avoca Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 is it an official one? not the one linked above, no. I got it and it says 100% unofficial. talking about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinghorse83 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 when someone gets it, can they tell me if it is 100% utterly brill? and if it is, i'll buy it. the thing is becasue i live in the wop wops its so expensive to get stuff here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avoca Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 to be 100% honest, i'd say it's good, not 100% utterly brill. it's reasonably priced and the pics are good, but they are very similar to each other and the space for the calendar bar (dates) is very small. the stickers are cute.

racinghorse83 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 if its not too much trouble, do you have some pics you could post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avoca Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 here we go basically it's A3 size full page pics. the space for the calendar bar would be same as the little writing on bottom of page you see in this pic: VERY small stickers are basically the same shots as the calendar pics, so they are cute.

racinghorse83 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 aha, i see what you mean.. the pictures are very similar!! so its almost more like a poster book than a calendar... *is torn over wether to buy it or not..* i will make up my mind in the morning.. i decided to buy two more mika things so i got the big girl/love today singles in a package, now i'm deciding wether to buy this or the LICM poster...

Lolliepop_girl Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 This is to take cautiously, anyway this time it's with another company, Pyramid. Release due to 01.10.2008.http://www.play.com/Books/Calendars/4-/6063250/Mika-2009-Official-Calendar/Product.html http://www.pyramidposters.com/catalogue/calendars/Square/C10684_Mika-(Official-Calendar-2009) And an unofficial one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mika-Calendar-2009-A3/dp/1846201985/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1216718419&sr=8-1 LOL I really want to get this, then get Mika to sign on the one for May so that when I wake up in the morning of my birthday (the FIRST of May) I can see Mika's writing the whole of my birthdau month! And it'll make the fact that it's "New Zealand music month" a whole lot less of a drag My granddad and I wanted to get a playboy one but I said this was better and he rolled his eyes at me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avoca Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 My calendar has still not arrived I am not superstitious at all, but I am starting to believe there's a curse on all mika merchandise arriving by mail.. postal services clearly hate mika and mfc'ers.

Blue Eyes Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 My calendar has still not arrived Wendi, did you order yours from Play.com? I gave up with them in the end and cancelled my order. Even today their website still says 'pre-order -due for release on 5/11/08' what a bunch of muppets I ended up buying it from ebay, but unfortunately it arrived with a big crease down the middle That was a couple of weeks ago and I've just discovered it's available to buy in our local shop so I wish I'd been a little more patient because now I can't afford to buy another one!
