This life-size LEGO mug is an exact replica of the one that the tiny yellow men use in LEGO's building block sets, except ten times bigger.

Avid LEGO fans will recognize the odd proportions of this special coffee mug, designed to fit perfectly into the cupped hands of the minifigures who populate the LEGO universe. This mug, however, is a life-sized LEGO version of that [miniature toy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-replica) one. The [life-sized LEGO coffee mug](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-campbells-soup) has an over-sized hook rather than a handle, is made of unbreakable plastic and is [fully stackable](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trolley-and-backpack-set). It comes in blue and red and is available for sale on the official LEGO website.

Increasingly, furniture-sized versions of toys are making their way into people's homes -- not just as toys and room decorations for children, but as nostalgic decor items for adults.
