CALCIATORI PANINI ALBUM 2015/2016

[Caniggia]

even album will be out only before Christmas, as usual, I can't wait to start to dream about!

i got opportunity to write to my contacts inside Panini Modena for some ideas/suggestions:

1) from this season the club of Serie A can't have more than 25 players, so why don't put stickers of all players in the album?? if 25 stickers per team are too much, some can be double like for Serie B

2) people ask for stadium stickers! at least Serie A

3) due to fact CL is over, why not start again to have at end of album some pages about European Cups? (Champions League and Europe League)

4) some pages with shiny stickers of stars of Euro France2016

then I add some more "ideas" thinking about old albums

I'll wait for answers, we'll see

There are also some rumours we could have the hard cover version of album! But for the moment nothing is confirmed...

 

[Only Good Stickers]

Great ideas!
Yes the hardcover version would be fantastic, I really hope so!
I think that there are probably too many stickers, but at the same time some important stickers are missing.
I would replace for example young team stickers and team photos of serie b teams and have instead stadium of serie A or full club logo of serie B teams (not half stickers like now). There is a lot to improve and all your ideas would make it much better, I hope they will listen!

I might do calciatori again this season! It's just such a nice album.

1) Really, you want more players? You already have the biggest league album of the world! Greedy bastard

2) Agreed.

3) Only makes sense if it's pictures from italian teams in action and not included in Topps official rights.

4) Maybe next season is better than this one, after the tournament is over and knowing who were the stars... Portuguese League 2010/11 and 2012/13 had it and I liked.

How about golden moments from past Calcio seasons? Or historical players? When will they do something like this? There are so many amazing moments or historical players that every season from now on should have some section dedicated to it.

 

[Caniggia]

I want more players anytime! But of course is impossible... after that we could have around 1500 stickers...

i love idea to have stickers of old stars or moments, i know sometime Panini did it in past. Also a kind of rookies could be great, first example first Panini sticker ever of Zanetti, Totti, Roberto Baggio etc

we'll see

new interesting campaign by Panini about CALCIATORI 2015/16 "draw your team"; the best designs could be part of album! It is just a rumor but could be confirmed if, I suppse, they receive nice ideas and about all Serie A teams. In past we had already design for team mascotte like you see in the promo, that stickers are taken from extra stickers CALCIATORI 1988/89, but the ones I love are by PROSDOCIMI as the great central page of CALCIATORI 1978/79



from CALCIATORI 1978/79 central page

Panini now looks a lot to the past... In Portugal, we have an "exclusive" word that it's impossible to translate in it's full meaning: "saudade". It means when someone misses something from the past, be persons, situation, even an object... "Missing" doesn't really get all the feeling and that's what Panini seems now, "com saudade do passado".

"saudade".. "nostalgia" in italian. I like they tribute old albums with covers or other that are similar with the past ... but not the 90's ... after 90/91 all the other album had terrific cover for almost 10 years!

 

[dantzig]

Nop, still not that, we also have nostalgia (we even have a radio station with that name)... It's a word very used in Fado, it has a deeper feeling than nostalgia... But heck, I can't describe it too :\

Anyway, mascot was also used in Brasil this year... Seems people there liked it, but will Italy like too?

Thus I'm not portuguese (or from Cabo Verde like the famous singer of Saudade Cesaria Evora), I would say that "Saudade" can't be explained but only lived and felt. The word comes from the arabic "Saudaá" which means, more or less, melancholia mixed with nostalgia. You can find some similar words in different other languages that are quite impossible to translate. In most of the cases, it's about feelings that can only be described by the sing or the music in general. I think my spanish friends from this forum would be ok with me if I say that the particular word "duende" used in the Flamenco context belongs to these "world-words" you can only feel, but not really explain or even talk about.

You sir, deserve the internet award of the day... No, the week! You may not be portuguese, but you accurately described the word, even referred Cesária Évora, which the song and lyric depict the "saudade" feeling... Didn't know it came from an arabic word, but then again, we have some arabic influences, mostly the words beginning with "AL", like Algarve.

Duende for portuguese is an "Elf"

 

[Makhno]

Duende for portuguese is an "Elf"

It means the same in spanish : a magical little creature and, also, a feeling you have, or not, when playing or singing flamenco. Maybe the term "magical" is the most appropriate to characterize those words deeply connected with inner feelings.

 

[Caniggia]

the italian version of "saudade" is Albano & Romina Power who sing "Nostalgia Canaglia" at Sanremo Festival .. but I prefer Jose Feliciano with "Che sarà che sarà" ... ok i'm completely OT!

We've been a bit offtopic (I know, my fault again), but here I think Panini didn't reach the "saudade" level... Caniggia is right, with these "back to the past" ideas from Panini, it's more nostalgic rather a deeper feeling like saudade (it's nostalgic, but not melancholic, like Makhno said).

 

[Makhno]

I don't know if it is "nostalgia", but having real picture of players with their own shirt and not bad photoshoping stuff would be a step to past I'm not against !

we have first promo page about next CALCIATORI, taken from Panini Comic Preview magazine ("ANTEPRIMA"), so also this year we will have boxes sold in the newspaper shops with 100 packets, as usual, and special box with 60 packets inside in the comic shops. That means also, at least, two different kind of packets.. but for sure will be more.
