An interesting thought

[unixronin]

...for all the B5 fans on my f-list.  As far as I know, no new B5 merchandise is being produced.  I'd have to run this by, probably, JMS (as a first contact) to find out whether there would be any licensing issues ... but if I can get any licensing issues sorted out, and find a manufacturer, I have an idea to make some Aggie coffee mugs.

I'm thinking if a tallish, plain cylindrical coffee mug, say a 12oz-16oz mug, in about a 40% grey overall, with a quarter-inch wide cobalt-blue band top and bottom, bearing in cobalt-blue letters the simple script:

EAS  AGAMEMNON

If I can make it happen ... who might be interested?  Ask around other Five-heads you know, too.

I'd be in. I think licensing would only be an issue if you were making enough of a profit on them to be worth the attention of the B5 lawyers.

Ok, so I'm an idiot....I had Malcom Reynolds on the brain last time I saw that icon. Who is that?? I know the actor and it is driving me crazy.

Nevermind, I finally remembered. Bruce Boxleitner. Yeesh....I had a huge crush on him too.

Dude. I collect mugs. I'm in.

Did the Agamemnon have a vessel number? That would be fun to include too.

I don't know, but including a hull number would be a nice touch. I have a half-recollection of having seen one.... but I can't find any reference to any Omega Class hull numbers.

I do, however, have a contact who could ask Joe.

Awesome. Either way, I'm in for at least one of them. I might want two (one for work, one for home).

Count me in. Especially if you can get a hull number.

I'm in!
