Minecraft Calendar


In February 2013, a contest was held by Mojang to collect work for J!NX to help produce a Minecraft-themed 2014 calendar that featured sixteen months and was filled with fan-art. The contest's category was "Minecraft Humor" where the artist must display a picture that included humor, adventure, or a funny story. The calendar was produced for UN Habitat after Mojang AB officially announced their partnership in September 2012. The contest was for the Block by Block campaign hosted by Mojang for UN Habitat, for which all proceeds went.

Prizes
The contest ends with twelve winners and the following prize(s):
 * A Glow-in-the-dark Creeper Vinyl autographed by Notch and Jeb.
 * $500 worth in cash.
 * $500 J!NX certificate.

Original idea for contest: "What's the funniest thing that has happened to you in Minecraft?"

Each regular set normally includes a figure, block and either a tool or an item, though the Blacksmith is an exception to this rule as his 'item' (apron) is applied during manufacture.

Series 1 was released at the end of 2013/beginning of 2014, with series 2 arriving in July 2014 with a phased introduction. Series 3 "Alex?" arrived in December 2014, and there have been no new announced action figures since.
