Saw this in Barnes and Nobles on 3rd and 54th today...a full sized wall calendar (1 or 2 feet long when stretched out) featuring photos of, I believe, the various casts. Great new product.
It's great that it's not just pictures of the Original Cast.
Maybe I'll pick it up sometime this week.

Who are the pictures of? I recognize Sebastian Arcelus and Stephanie Block, Kristoffer Kussick (sp???), and I tihnk Idina (in the Wizard and I picture) but what about the others?
I was at Barnes and Noble today and they had a whole Wicked table/section. They had pens, three or four different journals, a tote bag, two puzzles,a planner, a limited edition book with both Wicked and Son of A Witch together, both of the books seperatley, the grimmerie and t-shirts. For some reason they didnt have the calender. All of it was new except the Grimmerie, the books and, the t-shirts. The new items are gorgeous. I've never seen a display like this in a store for a brodway show, besides Virgin Megastore. I found it so cool. It looks like what they do when really popular movies or books come out. I can only imagine what It will be like when the actual movie comes out. It just shows that Wicked is such a phenomenon. I can't imagine any other broadway show having merch at a bookstore.
Yay! I just went a little crazy at Barnes and Noble today. The Wicked table made me super duper happy! Got the calendar and the tote bag - although I don't even think I'll ever use it.
I need to get to Barnes & Noble. I desperately want, no NEED, the wall decals and pop-up book.
kchenofan's computer is broken right now. This is her fridge. Now, you can leave a message, but say it slowly, so I can write it on a post-it note and stick it to myself.
The book Wicked: A Pop-Up Compendium is in stores now. The calendar is not new this year, there was one that looks exactly the same last year. Most of the other stuff is from last year as well. B&N had a large promotion for the 5th anniversary of Wicked. This year they're going to the well one more time.
