Lunartik Mini Teas Series 2, BIY Tea open for pre-orderFans of Lunartik, your time has arrived: the Mini Tea Series 2 pre-order is almost here! Happening in a half an hour at 4 p.m. GMT (11 a.m. Eastern, 8 a.m. Pacific) at Lunartik.com, the 2.5-inch Series 2 figures will be available, with the first 100 pre-orders at Lunartik.com getting a signed autographed card for free. The boxes have been redesigned as cups, with the lid also serving as a display for the Mini Teas. Single Teas will cost you £6.99, while a tray of 16 will run you £110.00. In total, there are 17 new designs. First, the 12 Fresh Flavours, each 1/16 ratio, are: Apple Bubble, EmperorTea, Wild Mushroom Tea, Majes’tea, Mini Earl, Shroom, Organik, Star Cup, High Tea, Camomile, Jasmin and Plum Bubble. There's four special brews, too: Ani’chai (1/80), Midnight Brew (1/40), un-plugged (3/80) and Licker Tea (3/80), plus a special rare collector's tea (Cherry Green) that you can get by redeeming a full Collectors' Card with 19 Tea Token stickers. Only 200 have been made and each one is signed and numbered by Lunartik himself. But maybe you want to make your own? There's a Brew It Yourself version of the Mini Tea, selling for £6.99, which comes disassembled with a "Tea Brewer's Guide" so you can make your own awesome brew. Very cool stuff! So that's the basics of the new Mini Teas. I'm thinking I might try to buy a few in hopes of getting something awesome: what about you? Did you know?
