Update 11/11/2023: Posting on Twitter, Thomas Puha (Communications Director at Remedy) stated "There is another larger batch of Oh Deer Diner thermoses coming in (estimate) Q1 2024. No need to buy from resellers (unless you want to). Hold on, more are coming." A further post revealed the complex decisions in trying to measure interest at the start of the collaboration, "The main thing with the Oh Deer Diner thermos was to do fan service and create a really high-quality product and collabo that makes sense. We had no idea what the demand would be. Either you make too many and that's bad or make too few and that's...not good either." We'll let you know when the next larger batch of Oh Deer Diner thermoses as the information is posted.
If you missed out on the first run of the very limited edition Alan Wake 2 Oh Deer Diner Coffee Thermos, you might want to set an alarm for tomorrow at 5pm GMT. Remedy has teamed up once again with iam8bit, to sell a second wave of these collectables with international delivery available.
While Alan Wake was almost tripping over them in Bright Falls, their real-life recreation has been slightly harder to obtain. Originally given out to influencers and press at events, the thermoses were made available across stores in Finland and local company VPD.
Orders will open on Thursday, November 9th, at 5pm UTC. You can check out the store page for it, HERE.
This collaboration seems more to be for Alan Wake fans based in or near the US, who were unable to purchase the thermos in the original release. Estimated shipping to the UK (and other European countries) from the iam8bit site is roughly $50.
For the piece, Remedy teamed up with local specialists, Airam who is backed by almost a century of knowledge in rugged and quality thermos design. Established in the 1920s, the company originally focused on lighting but branched into the creation of the now-iconic red thermos bottles a decade later with the formation of their Punavuori-based glass factory. Although a household name, the partnership marks its first brand crossover.
The limited edition Oh Deer Diner thermos is part of the launch celebrations for the highly-anticipated Alan Wake 2. The recreated thermos features a shiny bright white top and base, along with the recognizable pastel blue. The cafe's logo is prominently featured on the outside. For the piece, Airam is using its traditional 0.45-litre bottle with a high-quality glass interior.
