This is a new and larger 0.4-liter version of the Moomin mug Family, originally released in 2002. There are several differences in the illustration compared to the original; for example, the Moomin characters are arranged differently, and Moominpappa is facing a different direction, making it easy to distinguish from the smaller version. This mug is part of a collection of four mugs and two bowls that will be available exclusively in Finland at K-food stores and online at K-Citymarket. According to preliminary information, the products will be available from August 19, 2024, to January 25, 2025. The original illustrations are based on Tove and Lars Jansson's comic #17 "Moomintroll and the Comet," Tove Jansson's novel "Moominland Midwinter," and comic #8 "Moomin Begins a New Life," as well as Lars Jansson's comic #70 "Moominpappa at the Gates of Old Age."
