Watch out for the ZOMBIES!

February is when the 2nd half of the Walking Dead came back.  At the same time, it's also my birthday month.  To Celebrate, my lovely wife gave me this incredible Magic Mug. 

The mug is two sided, with each image stretching completely to meet at the side.  Both images are identical, showing a man in a suit, running through a dark cityscape.  

Add Hot Liquid:

Once hot liquid is added, the dark background clears to reveal a horde of Zombies in shambling pursuit!
The color change is quick and complete and the effect is great!

Also cool when I receive a new mug is the fact that it comes with its own special box in full color!

This mug will take a place of honor in the collection.

Disney's Genii from Aladdin 1992

In the fall of 1992, Disney introduced the movie Aladdin. One of the promotions they gave away to theater owners was this magic mug.  On one side is the Aladdin logo, underneath it is 'Holiday Season 1992."

On the other side is a large dark cloud eminating from the magic lamp.  Also, there is the logo for both Disney, and Aladdin (below both is the copyright  (c) Disney.).  

When hot liquid is added, the dark cloud clears to reveal the Genii in all his glory.  The color change is great and quick, and the colors bright.  A great piece in my collection.

Wondermugs English Countryside

This mug is a newcomer to the collection. I just picked it up this last week at a local thrift shop.  It is by Wondermugs, a company known for making Magic Mugs.  High Quality and some great images.  

This mug features a full 3 sided wrap around design of an English Country lane, sided by a low rock wall.  In the field stands a typical English Country house.  The scene is at night, the sky dark with stars showing.  

When hot liquid is added, The sky turns clear, showing a magnificent rainbow which stretches almost end to end.  It's a great mug, with a beautiful design. The artists name is on the side: Eric Mohn, along with the Copyright: Wondermugs - USA.

Zithromax Prescription Medicine

This is one of a typical group of magic mugs, those given to Doctors' offices to advertise prescription medicines.  This mug is for Zithromax. (Zithromax is a prescription medicine for the treatment of infections caused by bacteria, such as respiratory infections such as chronic bronchitis.) 

This 3 sided design has the Zithromax logo on one side with a drawing of a pair of lungs on the other.  Above the lungs is a dark rounded rectangle and below is the phase "Chronic Bronchitis." 

When hot liquid is added, The dark area clears to show the treatment regimen using pills and a chart. The lungs, previously shown inflamed with infection are now shown with the infection gone.  Even the words "Chronic Bronchitis" are faded.

The color change is not as good as others in my collection, but it does happen enough to see the change.
