I like it too &... I bought one. Funny, some collectors are willing to buy something like a "cowboy mug with a kitty as a head" whats Tiki about that? Just cause some Great designer made it we sometimes buy it for many reasons, they only made 12 of them, or it's the only purple one ever made. I know it's not right to put someones name on something they didn't do but, as stated, that's corp. America. And I wouldn't go so far to say it's inferior. Many Vintage mugs for example are inferior, sloppy paint cheap ceramics, we still love them. Sometimes what starts as a great design with best intention gets fouled up in the over-seas production like, 3rd world kids (or adults) painting the mug for low wages. There is nothing wrong with that design except maybe the straw hole and that's personal preference. It's all opinion.I just feel this is getting to personal.
