Wednesday

Official Wednesday Stationery, Drinkware and Posters

The Wednesday range is desk-and-bag shaped. Stationery leads it — a window pencil case, bumper and five-piece sets, notebooks, a fidget pen and a jumbo desk mat — followed closely by drinkware, including a 3D coffin mug, a thermal travel mug and flask, a pitcher and a plastic drinks bottle. Posters and framed 3D pictures come next, plus Nevermore pin badges and a MINIX figure.

Buying for the character or for the aesthetic?

They pull in different directions. Someone who loves the character wants Thing, the Nevermore crest and the MINIX figure — pieces that name the show. Someone who came for the look wants the black-and-white drinkware and the desk mat, which read as gothic without a logo and survive an office. The coffin mug is the one piece that does both.

What does official mean on printed drinkware?

The licence covers the print, not just the logo. Approved artwork is applied to be dishwasher-durable, which is where unofficial mugs fail first — the print fades or crazes within weeks while the ceramic looks fine.
