1990 Jetsons Ceramic Mugs

 Ever wanted to take a sip of coffee straight out of George, Jane, Judy, and Elroy's craniums? I doubt anyone will say yes to that, but if you did, these guys have got you covered. Released in 1990 as just one of the many product tie-ins to the Jetsons feature film, this is a set of four ceramic mugs released by a company called Vandor. From my research, they're still around and making mugs today, although nothing quite as interesting as this set. 


Above is a group photo of the mugs; goodness gracious, they are creepy! Well, the George mug isn't too bad in all honesty, but the others? I could do without them thank you very much! Jane and Judy look particularly ghastly. I also can't imagine these would work all that well practically. They look like they'd suffer the same problems most of those "character heads as coffee mugs" have. They're neat in design and a fun oddity, but I couldn't see myself or anyone else drinking something out of them. And how come we didn't get Rosie, Astro, or Spacely?
