PlayStation Controller Coffee Mug: Live In Your World, Drink in Ours

Like many of you, I’ve been playing games on Sony PlayStation consoles since the very first generation. I’ve also been drinking coffee for decades – though recent medical issues have forced me to stick to decaf – blah. Still, I like the morning ritual of a hot cup of joe, and think I’ve found the mug I want to drink mine from now.

This sweet ceramic mug features a mini original PlayStation controller as its handle. It looks just like the real deal, but don’t turn it on it side to try and play Jumping Flash or Parappa the Rapper with it, or you’ll spill hot coffee all over your lap.

The mug is decked out in classic PlayStation grey, with the PlayStation logo on one side, and the brand’s iconic button shapes on its reverse side.

PlayStation fans can grab the mug over at Firebox for about $17.

Deadpool Bob Ross Heat Changing Mug: Happy Little Caffeine

I’m a big fan of the Deadpool flicks and I also love Bob Ross. I will one day learn to paint and acquire the leet painting skillz Ross made look so easy. And I’ll wear an afro while I paint. Not long ago we talked about the Deadpool Bob Ross Funko figure. This mug is the perfect complement to that toy.

It’s got Deadpool’s face on the front and his name on the other side. When you pour hot liquid into the mug, Deadpool’s face is becomes surrounded by an afro, and a 1970s style shirt appears on his body. On the back of the mug under the logo appears a Bob Ross quote that says “Let’s get crazy, what the heck,” which sounds like a very Deadpool thing, other than the lack of profanity.

The mug sells for $12.99 on ThinkGeek. Keep your coffee or tea in it while you paint your next masterpiece.

Death Star Ceramic Coffee Cup: That’s No Mug!

I’m betting that this Death Star mug is what all of the Imperial officers and Stormtroopers were drinking out of when Luke destroyed The Ultimate Power in the Universe. That’s a hell of a way to go. It was probably early morning. All they wanted was a first cup of coffee. And they never got it. All because of some farm boy who was becoming a wizard.

That makes me wonder if the folks on the second Death Star were drinking from mugs that matched that half-finished space station when it was destroyed. Anyway, this cool ceramic mug holds 20 ounces of your favorite drink.

While I’ve seen other Death Star mugs, I like this version better because it is actually round and bigger than the average coffee mug. You’ll have to hand wash it only, and it’s not microwave safe…. or safe from Rebel scum for that matter. You can get yours for just $12.99 from Entertainment Earth.

I think they should have a round Death Star sippy cup for kids, where the exhaust port is where you fill it up / sip from it. That would be cool. I’m an adult and I would drink from that.

Donkey Kong Barrel Coffee Mug: How High on Caffeine Can You Get?

Some of the most iconic objects in the history of video games have to be the barrels that Donkey Kong tosses at Jumpman as he climbs girders to rescue his princess. Jumping over those barrels and smashing them with a sledgehammer were the key gameplay mechanics of Nintendo’s breakout arcade game. Now you can celebrate this classic video game object every time you take a sip of coffee.

I wondered what was inside those barrels – I always assumed it had been banana juice, but it turns out it was coffee. This officially-licensed Donkey Kong barrel mug is perfect for sipping your favorite caffeinated beverage, or even as a pen caddy on your desktop.

It’s actually based on the DK Barrel from the Donkey Kong Country series, which freed a defeated Kong when you smashed it. I don’t recommend smashing this one unless you want to throw your money away and get hot coffee all over your lap. It’s available now over at Firebox for just about $18.

 

Infinity Gauntlet Coffee Mug: Rule the Universe with Caffeine

Rule the Marvel universe and your morning coffee with something better than an iron fist. This Infinity Gauntlet coffee mug is but one of the cool Avengers: Infinity Wars toys and collectibles that is just now flooding the market since the release of the movie is right around the corner. Think about it, you can wear your Infinity Gauntlet replica, then use it to lift your Infinity Gauntlet coffee mug. That’s double the universe ruling power right there.

Look at that gold finish and those gems. Just like the real thing that Thanos wears, it will give you power, but in this case, that power comes from caffeine.

Maybe you can wear your giant Hulk hand on your other hand and you’ll be even more powerful. I can picture myself sipping coffee from the Infinity Gauntlet, while my Hulk hand randomly smashes stuff. It would make mornings very messy, but also very fun. I’d probably get carried away and smash my Infinity Gauntlet mug, then I’d be sad. As you probably guessed, I don’t use Hulk hands responsibly. Not ever.

This ultimate coffee vessel will cost you $21.99 with free shipping from Merchoid, and it’s expected to ship starting in July.

Drink the tea… not the tea-bag!

tea_bag_mug_1

The advantage of the tea-bag is its disposable-bag nature… The bad thing about tea-bags is also its disposable-bag nature. Let me explain what I mean. You use tea bags in places where traditional brewing isn’t possible. At a kiosk, at your work-desk, at the dining table of a restaurant or your home. However, there are two processes to tea-bag prepared tea. One, the brewing, and two, the disposing of the tea-bag. Unlike coffee that dissolves in water/milk, tea leaves don’t, and having to haplessly hold your cup in one hand and a soggy tea-bag in the other while you look for a waste bin is far from ideal.

So the Creative Ceramic Tea Mug takes care of that problem for you. Its innovative handle comes with a small space for the tea-bag to retract into. Not just that, it even squeezes the bag (something I shamelessly do, because I hate the idea of wasting tea), allowing every bit of flavor out of the leaves, and leaving you with a brew that’s ready to drink, while the tea-bag patiently hides in its corner, waiting to be disposed AFTER you’ve enjoyed your beverage. Drinking tea shouldn’t be so complicated, after all!

Mr. Meeseeks Mug Is Here to Serve You (Coffee)

I’m Mr. Meeseeks, look at me!!! I think we could all use a Mr. Meeseeks box in our lives. After all, the idea of a personal assistant willing to do whatever you ask it to do is pretty cool. Of course, that’s not exactly how things turned out with Beth, Summer, Jerry and their Meeseeks, but I swear, I’d only ask mine to do things like buy groceries, do the laundry, or maybe fix me a cup of coffee.

This Meeseeks Box mug is ready to perform that task whenever you desire. Simply open the lid, fill it with up to 20 ounces of coffee, and the Mr. Meeseeks inside will make sure it stays hot and delicious until you finish drinking it. Then he should cease to exist until you push the button once again.

It’s the perfect gift for any Rick and Morty fan, and it’s just $19.99 over at ThinkGeek. Just don’t keep pressing the button and asking Mr. Meeseeks to solve your relationship problems.

Super Mario Bros. Turtle and Boo Mugs: 1up with Caffeine

Coffee and video games don’t generally mix. After all, reaching down from your controller in the middle of a game to grab a sip usually results in a nasty mouth burn or hot coffee spilled all over the place. Best to stick with something cold and in a can while playing. But in between gaming sessions, a cup of joe is a nice way to recaffeinate before the next round. These Super Mario Bros. themed mugs are a great way to enjoy your coffee break.

Choose from either a Koopa Troopa shell or a Boo vampire ghost ceramic mug, each of which holds an ample 22 oz. of your favorite hot beverage. Both mugs are officially licensed by Nintendo, and are officially awesome gifts for Super Mario fans.

So put on your overalls and warp pipe your way over to ThinkGeek now to grab these mugs before they’re gone. They’re just $14.99 each.

A Mug with Magnet Magic

mug_plus_1

Clankity clank. That’s one sound we avid tea drinkers wouldn’t mind never hearing again! But it’s not because of the spoon sound, it’s because of how it moves! The stirring spoon we use can be such a nuisance once your finished using it. It drips if you take it out right away, and it tumbles around if you leave it in. Mug+ eliminates the problem with a cleverly integrated magnet that keeps the spoon in place when you’re not using it to stir! Better yet, it comes with a specially shaped metal tea strainer that fits snugly against the interior wall of the cup where the magnet is so you barely notice it’s there!
