Cult Cartoon Tea Sets

The Adventure Time BMO Teapot Pays Tribute to Finn and Jake's Gaming System

— June 6, 2013 — Lifestyle
The Adventure Time BMO teapot is perhaps the only way for a superfan of the show to properly serve tea.

This quirky teapot was artfully crafted by Rebekka Ferbrache, proprietor of the Etsy store Jadeflower. For those who don't watch the show, I admittedly am one of those people, BMO is the video game console/best friend of Adventure Time's Finn and Jake.

The Adventure Time BMO teapot has been expertly crafted to resemble the living and breathing gaming system from the cult cartoon show. All of the buttons are there, and "BMO" runs down both sides (the arm and the spout) of the pot. The Adventure Time BMO teapot is sold as a complete set, it also comes with four teacups, and is priced at $150.00.
Trend Themes
1. Pop-culture Inspired Tea Sets - Creating tea sets that are inspired by iconic characters and moments in pop culture provides a niche and unique offering for fans to purchase.
2. Innovative Teapot Design - Incorporating familiar characters or objects into traditional teapot design increases aesthetic and playful appeal for the consumer market.
3. Fan-made Collectibles - Encouraging fans to create their own collectibles for their favorite shows using digital marketplaces such as Etsy offers a potential market for unique and personalized merchandise.
Industry Implications
1. Tea - Tea companies can partner with pop culture brands to create merchandise that appeals to fans of both genres.
2. Merchandising - Offering niche and exclusive merchandise through digital marketplaces and targeted events can create a community of loyal fans and increase revenue.
3. Design - Designers can utilize fan culture and pop-culture references to create playful and unconventional products that appeal to a broad consumer base.
