The original After Dark flying toasters, with the fluffy white wings, were a trademark of Berkeley Systems. Berkeley Systems ceased to exist some time in 1998, having been gobbled up by Sierra Online, who were subsequently gobbled up by Flipside and/or Vivendi (it's hard to tell exactly what happened when.)
I doubt anyone even cares any more, but if they do, hopefully this homage, with the space-age 3D jet-plane toasters, will be considered different enough that whoever still owns the trademark to the fluffy-winged 2D bitmapped toasters won't get all huffy at us.
