Amiga Branded Stuff!
« on: March 30, 2011, 10:08:36 PM »
Hi peeps, I did a search and found some Amiga related T-shirts on sale on various websites, from the original KS 1.x start screen to the multicoloured tick. I also saw a mug someone bought with the Workbench 3.1 style squares on it.....and I thought.......I want that! But some of the t-shirts aren't brilliant, and not quite what I want. Has anyone thought about this?
It was also mentioned in a thread somewhere 'wouldn't it be great if Amigakit.......'.
So, this summer I would like to be able to buy a few Amiga related t-shirts, a couple Amiga mugs and what about window stickers?!

Additional, if your still awake after reading that - what about Amiga related desktop back grounds, there are a few on here, but took me ages to find them..........I want some my A4000 can display and some I can put on my modern non-Amiga hardware so people know what I love! ;)

I maybe talking shit....but it is what I am thinking about:banana::banana::quickdraw::destroy::drink: I also found these icons on here! Never really looked before ;p

The Amiga brand of personal computers belongs to C=USA.  All business use would need to be approved by them.

The Amiga brand is still owned by Amiga Inc.
C=USA licenses the brand for use on computers.
As tee shirts are not computers, it seems unlikely that C=USA's permission would be required.
I'd also be willing to bet that a lot of Amiga related merchandise is not properly licensed.

I like this one: http://www.amiganews.de/forum/thread.php?id=33445&BoardID=5

or those http://126947.spreadshirt.de/p2

and more merchandise http://www.apc-tcp.de/shop/shop-unten-merch.php

Nice! Since tee shirts pre-date C=USA, I kind of figured they'd be available.

And of course, neither C=USA nor Amiga Inc have actually stopped Amiga branded products.  That distinction would belong to Hyperion which p***ed on AmigaOne branded mice...

Gary Peake of Amiga Inc. was very active in stopping people from selling Amiga branded stuff.  He had loads of case badges, T-shirts and other stuff pulled from eBay back in the early 2000's.  I don't suppose they care any more, though.

I imagine Bill's a little dispirited these days. Is it really worth chasing after a few hundred items?

Meanwhile, Atari appears to have turned into a fashion brand:

I have a custom Video Toaster mug made by converting that infamous Toaster test pattern framestore into a jpeg and taking it to one of those places in the mall that put people on mugs & shirts & stuff. ;-) Once had a traveling rep from Newtek come into the store & wonder where I got it. ;-)

I wonder if Cafe Press would work.... but they probably wouldn't do trademarked stuff...

Both the Commodore and Amiga brands are owned by me.

Must be because I've been using the mobile site.

This any better?
