    Because it is a piece of ill thought out crap? Not sure that that is the Auric Enterprises logo either. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong. I very often am!

    I'll go for the caravan. I think it should be Drax Industries also, though I'm less sure on that one! I'll go for the gamble, though!

    I suppose we should be pleased it doesn't say MILLITARY INTELLIGENCE though! Small mercies, and all that jazz.

    It was a prank by Stromberg's secretary. That's why she was fed to the sharks.

    She betrayed him. She had to pay the penalty.

    Markovitz and Bechmann were killed because they were calling Stromberg "Stromburger" behind his back. :))

    Naturally enough, for the Bond villain.

    Can't remember seeing that logo, no. Wasn't the Auric Enterprises logo just a typographic one? Can't really remember.

    Yes, exactly as I remember it, too.

    If, so, what is this coaster thing, really? Wrong logos, misspelled character/company names? Not worth anyone's money, if you ask me!

    Indeed, it's rather shoddily put together. Hopefully the box has something else better than this as well?

    Personally I'm only in it for the box. As long at its made of finest cereal packet cardboard I'll be happy.

    Those wonky coasters—with the Auric Enterprises, Stromburger designs—aren't in the box. The four are: Zorin, Stromberg (correctly spelled), Drax, and SPECTRE. Those coasters are actually the only things I'd want from the box. Maybe the Aston Martin keychain too. Can't really justify the price for those alone.

    I also rather like those marble ones from Amazon UK. But again, $40 for four coasters makes me think twice.

    Yeah, I looked the A-Box ones up, too. They're round, and simply accurate. Nice-looking pieces.
    Not a surprise since they're licenced.

    Not just Bond, but coasters and trivets with the right images make fine display items. Beyond their "intended" use.
