In addition to the Kaiser Water reference, I thought the map 'Other' category was interesting, esp. the S. Atlantic one. (map below) See this post. Doesn't that one pic look like a bathysphere? And I'm throwing in the logo as well, since that scepter is a bit strange and it never appears on the site.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It's like all the implosions are here. South African metals? Are you following this. Or was that VITD too? Kaiser Water? VITD. I'm with Illy in fanboy squeeing... geriatric fanboy? Ah well. I have happiness.


@Toasty>> Where did the 1.jpg come from? Email?

ETA: edit in stupid stuff. So many games, so few brain cells...

I'll say one thing. Chairperson of Junker, Luci Fernand, is hot and scary.

ETA: Also, to add to the parallels, the flower in the center of the junker eagle is the one previously used for what Eric Remington thought was a game on the Texas A&M Campus. I believe it was incorporated into the original Junker logos too, but can't remember.

I don't have time right now, but has anyone gone back to see if any of the old urls are working again.

The one picture on the slideshow of Junker's homepage is one from Con08...that weird happy brain thing. I wondered if it might be a signal to check that site out.

I believe it WAS the original Junker logo.

Also, at Pancito:

M-M-M-METACOMMENT: Wasn't XIII only semi-involved with Are You Following This? I'm a little iffy on any AYFT tie-ins right now. Nice find with the sub coordinates, though.

That's why I'm geriatric fanboy. I can't remember anything (except the things I remember).

@Illy >>> MegaMeta

Yeah AYFT was only graphics by XIII. What's more the exotic metals was VITD, I think. The non-alien space craft? AliensLoveMoonfruit?

I got the initial trailhead as well. Although these are great games, I don't have anywhere near the time available to invest in it.

In the end I did email the company just saying that I was in engineering and wanted any more information on the companies asset status and current products.

The reply was identical to Mr Toasty's first email image and all. so I figure it might be hidding a new contact address?

While reading through the site, I found an error in the text that looks not quite unintentionally:
