Anyone who, like me, spent much of his childhood building cars, spaceships and even entire cities in miniature format simply gets his heart racing with everything that reminds him of it. First impression about it: I must have! ?

Not a licensed product, but “randomly compatible” with the known components – that’s what the description says. So stones and figures can be attached to the cup as desired and one’s own creativity can be lived out. You need the building blocks to build on the cup yourself, which is certainly possible in many households with children. If you’re not thirsty at the moment, you might just want to leave the cup in a space or pirate look on your desk as an eye-catcher. If you are particularly keen to experiment, you can convert wheels (and engine?) into a spacey vehicle. The pictures give a few suggestions.

The cup is made of plastic, but should withstand temperatures up to 100° C. It is not microwave and dishwasher safe, so it should only be washed by hand. If you take that into account, you can enjoy the Build A Brick Mug for a long time.
