I have a heat sensitive Rogue Trooper mug from the 90s. It has Friday on it, and when liquid is poured in a blackened speech bubble clears to reveal "Dispensing Coffee Now, Friday". It was a prize for having a letter printed and, as far as I know, was never avaialble in any shops. Any idea wha this is worth?
I'd offer you ?5 for it.

More than a set of postcards.
Count yourself lucky.
Now I hear Matthew Kelly's been fiddling with minors ? Is being a sicko now a requirment for 2nd string celeb's ??
a fiver is a good deal.
more of value to a collector
(wake being one such person.)i have not seen them on ebay.
take the money.
I'll offer you ?5.50 for it.
I'll offer you a tin of tomato soup.
But you'd have nothing to drink it out of.

"More than a set of postcards.

Ha! Read it and weap, Oddboy- I managed to strike back in the days of "postal orders". Made a grand total of 25 quid (two pics and a letter)- a lot of money to a 13-15 year old in the mid 1980's, I can tell you...
Not a fan of tomato soup. Unless it's a really big tin?
?7.50?
mmmmm. if you check out the subscriptions thread you'll see this chap also has another mug for sale.... 20p anyone, carriage included ?
?8
Friday mug is not for sale. And, clearly, for drinking from either.
The bidding for the other mug (nice, white with blue and yellow squares - not related to 2K or any comic) is at ?8. If it reaches ?10 I'll sell it. And if it reaches ?20 I'll even clean it.
Sorry for the cross post
I have two "Reality is the only Alternative" mugs, so I actually get to drink out of one of them.

I think you have your answer anyway. The Friday mug is probably worth between ?5 and ?10.

What's the point in a heat-based colour-changing mug if you don't use it??
I think it must be you who's the mug!
These things shouldn't be precious, they should be enjoyed for what they are.
Go watch Toy Story 2.
I use a 2000AD mug at work and alternate between a Citroen DS mug and a black mug with my name on at home. In my collection I have a spare 2000AD mug and a couple of Judge Dredd mugs. None of them are heat sensitive.
I like Toy Story 2, but dislike packaging which you have to break to open.

This fish is proud to announce he used his Dredd mug so much it got chipped, and continues to risk serious infection by using it.
Fight the merchandise Nazis!

What am I bidding for again?
I thought this thread was going to be discussing the relevance of Friday as an alternative fr Rogue trooper. Does that make me the mug?
Rotts
ONLY JOKING!
oooh I dream of a mug like this.
About 8 years ago i had a letter published but never recived my mug :(
Your majesty,
a dab of superglue smeared over the chip will remove the risk of infection, but you'll still look hard and rebellious to your unwitting co-workers.
Back of the net!
