Thanks, I get that it is hard to see when empty and probably would look better with beer in it but it was hard to see with the musuem photo. I think I will order a mug for sure.

That's what the museum did but they crumpled it up for some reason rather than just smooth against the glass. I think if they would have just done it smooth it would show up better.

Thanks.

These look a lot better. Unfortunately I only had a mug with some imperfections at home.

I am old and tech-tarded and had trouble getting my web order to go through but I called Lori and she entered it manually over the phone so I have a mug and a couple of hats and a silver 2 oz proof of fighting man of mars.

Got my stuff today. The mug says “do not freeze”. I had planned on using it as a frosty mug for beer. Any idea why we aren’t supposed to freeze it Wombat?

They are really high quality but are still paper, I have been kicking around the idea of ordering a wrap around canvas but man they are expensive

I hope somebody here orders one of these from sideshow though so they can tell us how much better than normal prints they are.

Where do they say "do not freeze"?

And not that it matters (or that you would have known) but those hats were ones the museum already had and not from my wife. She made the ones with the helmet logo.
