Morphing Mugs World of Harry Potter Severus Snape Always Heat-Activated

I decided that this was a perfect gift idea for my best friend who is a huge Harry Potter fan but I was really afraid that I would order one and have it turn out to be nothing like the description. So I spent hours looking through all the different options for this kind of mug available on Amazon, tirelessly reading all the reviews to get an honest opinion. I settled on this one because it had the most reviews (a good sign it was the real deal), as well as a good overall rating. So as I was reading through the reviews, I was looking for those that addressed my concerns: 1. The color, 2. If it actually worked, and 3. The overall quality. When it delivered, I immediately checked for these things and so here are my thoughts: 1. The color- The color is pretty much black/deep deep purple. I was really afraid that the map underneath it would be really visible, but to my surprise, it was hidden pretty damn well. If you look closely enough, you can see some of the map, but if you're not actively looking for it, it's really not that noticeable. It just looks like a plain black mug. When hot water is in the mug and the map is showing, there is a gap of white around/underneath the handle area. I thought it would be more annoying than it actually is, but considering your hand will cover it up while holding the mug, it honestly doesn't matter. It's not a super important area of the mug, visually speaking. 2. Does it work- Yes and it is so damn cool! A few seconds after pouring hot water into it, the black color began to fade away to reveal a pretty detailed Marauder's Map. After pouring the water out, the cup took a couple of minutes to fade back to black as it cooled. It was super exciting to watch, it was like magic (teehee). 3. The quality- This cup is a nice, comfortable size and the mug itself seems to be well made. None of the paint was chipped and the mug itself was in perfect condition. I expect it to last quite a while. Conclusion: I bought it with low expectations and I'm thrilled that it was so much better than I'd hoped it would be. I love it so much that I may even have to get one for myself! A brilliant gift idea that won't disappoint. Money well spent.

Nice one!

Diese Tasse macht nicht was sie soll (Farbe von schwarz auf das Design wechseln) und ist in schlechter Qualität gedruckt. Der Händler geht nicht gut um mit meiner Reklamation. Finger weg!

Very satisfied with this mug. It "magically" turns into a map as promised, and turns dark again when it gets cold. :-) Cool for any Harry Potter fan. :-)
