DC Super Friends Cup - 2008

sg
This cup was my end of a swell trade I did with founding F.O.A.M. member Chris Franklin. I sent Chris a few of the Super Jrs. paper plates I had, and he sent me this sturdy drinking cup, featuring the stars of the new DC Super Friends toy line.

All the heroes are represented (Flash and Green Lantern are not pictured, but they're there), but with like most of the DC Super Friends merch I've seen, Batman takes the lead.

I'm glad to see Aquaman is included on all this toddler-centric stuff. It's the best way to ensure there's a new generation of F.O.A.M. members...

Thanks Chris!

Super-Friends is going to generate a lot of new Aquaman items to collect, I think!

I was browsing Ebay the other day and even found an edible Super Friends cake top decoration. From what I could see the picture looked similar. Maybe it's time to start looking at iParty for stuff like this.

yep, i think that's right (as hatter j's links attest).

that's why i was so jazzed when i found out aquaman was going to be part of the SF line--i knew he'd end up on all kinds of stuff!

I found them in the infant section at Wal-Mart. They come with generic straws and lids as well. They had some larger sip cups too, but I don't think Aquaman was on the styles I saw.

It was indeed a great trade! I still need to get you scans of those SF kid books!

Cool cup Rob! I'm trying to do my part to get Aquaman on or in as much product as I can!

It does my heart good to see Aqua-merch being generated by Superfriends. It's too bad that as soon as the kids get a little older there won't be any versions of the characters available to them.

Ah, but there will be the new Brave and Bold toon, toyline, and probably a comic book based on it! All which will include Aquaman.

Still sad that the main DCU isn't kid-friendly anymore...at all.
