We thought we'd give you a couple weeks break from beating you over the head with the news of the Junkyard website's 20th anniversary milestone. Well, enough time has passed, so it's time to formally announce that we have collaborated with some incredible artists to bring you four new t-shirt designs.
As mentioned during our previous merch drop back in 2024, 100% of the profits made by us from the sale of merch items will go exclusively towards assisting with website and podcast hosting, with any excess going towards funding further website-related projects. Let's check out the designs!
Design 1: "Web 2K5" by Animated AF! (aka Aaron Foster)
The first of four exclusive merch designs created to celebrate The Junkyard's 20th anniversary on the web. This one was illustrated by OG Dreamcast Junkyard contributor Aaron Foster, aka Animated AF, and pays tribute to the earliest layout of the site! You will also have seen part of Aaron's design adorning our current header!
Design 2: "JunkyardGaGa" by Tetsu "Tez" Okano
We’re honoured to reveal that Segagaga creator Tetsu “Tez” Okano illustrated this design, which features two familiar characters sat atop a giant junked console. How did I manage to wrangle Mr. Okano to design a t-shirt for us? Well, I proof-read some English promotional copy for his newest game "THE GIRL FROM GUNMA Kai", and he offered to illustrate something for us in return. Nice guy.
This design is also available as a sticker.
Design 3: "20 Years Logo" by From Ashes to Fire (aka Kopke)
Returning once again is From Ashes to Fire (aka Kopke), who is providing a 20 year anniversary rendition of the Dreamcast Junkyard logo he created for us back in 2024. It's sleek. It's Powerful. And you've probably seen it already doing the rounds on our socials and the website itself.
This design is also available on hats and stickers.
Design 4: "Junk Grind Radio" by Uncle Clutch
