    These mugs are dramatically overpriced, the financial goals to unlock more than 1 colour are absurd, and the explanations the “collaborator” is posting in the comments on Kickstarter seem spurious at best. I would be extremely hesitant about supporting this campaign. Something doesn’t smell right. I want a cool ass DRG mug as much as the next dwarf but there are red flags here.

    Edit: direct link to Kickstarter

    They look cool, but I am kind of disappointed about how expensive they are for plastic mugs. I also have a bit of a pet peeve about established companies using Kickstarter. But I like Ghost Ship so not too much shade.

      I don’t even think I own a plastic mug. They’re all nice and ceramic or steel. Why didn’t they go with metal?

        I would’ve bought one if it was metal (if I had the money), but now I definitely don’t have the money. That’s okay though, because I definitely don’t want one.

      I think it’s on kickstarter because it’s a seperate company who made this stuff before and has partnered with gsg for advertising
