    Sold! I am buying at least 5

    It’s adorable, but it looks a little awkward, like if you drank from it, your coffee would pool in the corners and then cascade all over your face and shirt, if you’re wearing a shirt.

    “It’s a magnificent piece of Minecraft merchandise” said nobody who’s ever tried to drink out of a square mug with a round hole.

      To make it actually usable, they should’ve put a circular 5-8mm lip on it.  Or, alternatively, a “dam” with a slot, to keep liquid from riding up the sides.

    Looks like a pixelized portrait of a chihuahua to me.

  • Chris Hayes-Kossmann

    Pre-order? I’m sure the shop where I work has been selling these for 5 months now.

    Yep, I bought one of these from Newbury Comics in Boston a few months ago. I love it.
