Yes - IH-MUG

I think a Fire King MIJ should be the only choice. Would fit perfect into your portfolio.

Nostalgic Americana it is.. I'm totally gonna get an IH one though! They're gonna sell well.

But they will be searingly expensive….

It lacks the over engineered and perfection of a diner mug. I'd buy either, but I wouldn't use a Fire King MIJ, they're WAY too small. (I do collect a bit of Fire King tho ::) )

I think a really hefty diner mug would be a better fit for Iron Heart. There was an article that I read not long ago about a scientist who studies the influence that packaging or appearance can have on our enjoyment of food. It mentioned a study that showed people thought the flavor of coffee was better, stronger, and more robust out of a white mug vs. a clear glass one.

That's really interesting, but the perception effect probably explains why people insist drinking coffee out of their favorite mugs. I've witnessed household and workplace meltdowns over mug misappropriation.

The "diner mug" has definite nostalgic appeal for me. Growing up on suburban Long Island (NY), I spent a lot of time at diners. Breakfast with the family, late night with friends (especially after over-indulging at the bar), or anytime you were with a group who couldn't decide on what to eat.  Regardless of the specific diner, the "diner mug" was a constant.
