MBroekhuijsen Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Hey I know this is my first post, but fear not - I'm definitely devoted, I've just never felt that I could add much to any conversation. But I have a question and I can't think of a better place to ask. I'm moving out and going to college in about a month, and I really want to show the world that I'm truly obsessed by having some Mika posters in my room, but I can't find ANY! I mean, when I search eBay I get framed album covers, and while the LICM is a GREAT piece of art, I'd sorta rather have a real chickeny picture of him, you know? I'm talking full size POSTERS that I can pin up on my wall, maybe practice my kissing, you know - I'm trying to relive my N*Sync days. Can anybody help me out? I've thought about just printing one, but access to a printer that large would be difficult, not to mention expensive. And I'm sure there aren't pictures big enough, with good enough resolution. A little help here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbm Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 They have website where you can submit a picture and then they'll make a big poster out of it for you, but I don't know the name....maybe someone else does? Also, if you see him in concert they usually have a merchandise table outside the venue where they sell posters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBroekhuijsen Posted July 19, 2008 Author Share Posted July 19, 2008 DANG! I saw him in Salt Lake, but because his band and everything got stuck in the snow in the middle of no where, they only had like... 15 t-shirts - that's it! Why wouldn't they make the posters available commercially? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I got the one with the artwork in the background and him with the tea towel from a poster company that comes to our uni every year. I was massively shocked that they had it, but yeah, you could try poster shops or something, they might? But if you keep checking Ebay some should come up eventually. Or you can contact the company that prints the posters for Mika But it's in Germany and I don't think they send them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjappie Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 According to your nickname I would say you're Dutch, aren't you? If you are, you could look on Marktplaats and typ in "mika poster" at search or so. There are many posters there (I have 7 Mika posters and I bought 4 of them on Marktplaats). You could also check the Hitkrant sometimes, because it sometimes has Mika posters. Good luck! :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little help here? I might be wrong, but I don't think he has posters on general sale, like a lot of popstars do. I don't think he's keen on getting his face all over the place. He has said he thinks he's ugly... Yes... I know... He needs a mirror does that guy, so he can finally see the truth of how gorgeous he is! I bought a Mika fridge magnet from the brixton gig. It sits in pride of place on my fridge, so I can say hi to Mika when I go in the kitchen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAK1 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Don't they have posters on the merchandise site on the Mikasounds site? You can still buy stuff from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 This photo is 18" x 24" and you could blow it up further without losing too much quality: http://www.popstarsplus.com/images/MikaPicture.jpg Print shops will do them for you. It's really not much more expensive than buying a pre-printed poster. If you're in North America, try Staples or you can order them online. This place will do an 18" x 36" for $12. http://www.customposterblowups.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBroekhuijsen Posted July 19, 2008 Author Share Posted July 19, 2008 WOW! Thanks for all the help! I really appreciate the feedback, and I'll be sure to let you know how it all goes. Actually, I checked the Mikasounds site and couldn't find anything, but then again, I get distracted easily. hee hee. I think I watch that video at the top EVERY time. I've probably seen it 15 or 20 times now. Pathetic. Actually Mjappie, I live in the States, but my grandparents moved from Holland in the early 60s so that's where I get my lovely name.

IngievV Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Isn't there any shop near you where you can get a pic printed as a poster? We have hundreds of them here:roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
