The R2-D2 Coffee Mug is quite possibly the greatest coffee mug ever invented. The mug is designed to look like the most famous droid of all time, and features a removable head that helps keep coffee warm and unwanted items (like bugs and hair) out.
R2-D2 is one of the most, if not the most, iconic characters from the entire Star Wars series. The loyal droid has been turned into many things, including, but not limited to: a mailbox, beer keg, vacuum and cellphone cover. The R2-D2 Coffee Mug is a fitting addition to the long line of R2-D2 products available on the Internet, and may actually be one of the most functional. The mug is designed to hold coffee, but with its removable lid, it could easily act as a plastic container or a thermos. If you want to get your hands on this mug, it'll cost you a pretty penny, 2,600 of them ($26) to be exact.
