According to the Sherlockology Tumblr, the BBC Shop has just added a new Sherlock mug to their collection:
There's already a similar one you can buy, which has "Consulting Detective" as a subtitle, and which is red on the inside. Apparently this new one is now up for pre-order, although somehow the BBC Shop website seems to be down at the moment, so I can't verify this.
I really like this new one, but I already have way too many fandom mugs, so I'm going to try very hard not to order it. *sigh*

The mug is really beautiful, I've got the other one and it's quite an eye-catcher. I'm really tempted to... oh well...

I have the other one too, and I'm so tempted to get this one too! I think they'd look nice together....

Yes, they would look really nice together...

Yeah, I've been thinking... they should really do a third one in another colour, and then I'd order two each to have a nice china (or rather mug) set for visitors. Though that's a bit dear just for fun, isn't it... Plus, I don't have that many fandom friends who'd fully appreciate a beautiful Sherlock mug. *double sigh*

It really is quite attractive. I've not seen the other one. What does it look like?

This is the red one:

If this mug has yellow smiley face on the other side it would be prefect.

I doubt that it has, but I can't say for sure. ![]()

I've got the first one (the red one). This one looks great too, but I don't know, I think it looks more "classy" in red ![]()

Does anyone know if there is an actual BBC shop in London where you can buy the merchandise directly? In my hometown there is a big german tv station and we have a merchandise shop in the city center!

Afaik there is none. I went to BBC headquarters with my London friend only to find - a shelf with Dr Who mugs and some staff who advised us to order online
.
While the other shops in the regional BBC offices still seem to exist.

Oh, that´s too bad, but thank you for the information, I guess I have to order online then!

You're welcome. We couldn't believe it - doesn't make any sense. But we got to see a dalek, though, and could see where the British weather is being made ![]()

It's such a pity that these mugs were apparently exclusive to the UK BBC shop which is closing down in a few days. They are beautifully designed, and you can't see the detail or quality until you get one in your hand. The main wallpaper design actually has a raised pattern and it's a subtle gloss brown on a matt black background, you simply can't see that from the online images. Plus each section of wallpaper features a different Sherlock image, the Union Flag, 221B, a violin, a skull, Big Ben, a gun etc. They were just awesome and the Sherlock version came with either a blue, red or purple interior and the Moriarty version with yellow only. I've very grateful to have acquired one of each.
