Is it possible the guerrilla marketing campaign has jumped the pond?

Nice find, yuroluke! Mean I can't wait to throw this in some faces. Also, ingenious way of avoiding trademark issues: make the logo look way shittier and hope that satisfies the party you stole it from.

It's obviously this.

Developer: "g'day mates, which one of you blokes has a capital idea for a logo that shows how bloody rich and powerful we are?"
Assistant: "blimey governor, it is plain as pudding that it's this powercat logo!"
developer: "huzzah, you've got it! Let's all grab a pint!"

Welp, just another day in the life of the powercat, international symbol of style and opulence.

The fine designers at Landmass could've picked any logo in the WORLD or designed their own, and yet they chose the PowerCat.

Emo EMAW · « **Reply #21 on:** May 03, 2012, 09:12:45 AM »

Anyone find it ironic that a British firm named their company "Landmass?" I mean c'mon, that little thing? A land mass? Pfft.

Theyre a design firm, they have design standards to uphold
