Beeline Creative

The Geeki Tikis Mythosaur mug will debut at NYCC, over at the Geeki Tikis / Toynk booth (Booth 3106). But it’s not a convention exclusive so it can be found on Toynk.

“Although long extinct, this traditional symbol of Mandalorian iconography can now be admired as the Galaxy’s coolest drinking vessel. And to be quite honest, doesn’t your favorite beverage just taste better out of the skull of a Mythosaur? This 18oz. MEGA Mug measures approximately 8 inches high x 6.25 inches wide and is made from heavyweight stoneware. It features a beautiful grey glaze with a darker wash which accentuates the details of the skull.”
