If there’s a tragedy in Bethesda’s Fallout video games, it’s not the crushing blow to humanity or the near total destruction of our collective history. No, it’s the fact that it can be really hard to get our drink on in the post-apocalyptic setting. None of our favorite bars are open in the Wasteland! Fortunately, that doesn’t mean that we can’t enjoy the new Fallout Geeki Tikis. Via Geekologie, ThinkGeek has unveiled its latest Fallout inspired merchandise, and they look perfect for cocktails or even just a can of Nuka-Cola.
From left to right, the mugs depict the Power Armor, Vault Boy, and everyone’s beloved companion, Dogmeat. Although we have to agree with Geekologie: Tiki Dogmeat looks more like Scooby-Doo than anything else. In fact, he’s so Scooby-Doo that we half expect him to go down to the Institute and unmask the director as Old Man Shaun. The remaining Fallout inspired tiki is Deathclaw.
We have to give credit to ThinkGeek for the clever product description, which postulates that Hawaii is still a vacation destination in this ravaged world.
“Hawaii residents – sign up today and secure your family’s future. Vault-Tec is proud to announce the creation of our first secure location on the big island. With our new financing model, non-residents can opt to timeshare a vault in paradise (in case you’re on the vacation of a lifetime when the inevitable happens). But just like Hawaii, we have limited space. Sign up at your local Vault shelter today!”
The Fallout Geeki Tikis are currently available for pre-order at ThinkGeek, and they are expected to begin shipping in November. The set of four goes for $59.99, and we think they’re worthy inclusions to any geek-themed tiki collection.
