New Improved Original Organic Washing Powder.

Or "Retro 1950s style sandwich toaster" or numerous other products that (a) Don't look like anything made before 2015 and (b) May be products that didn't exist in 1950. (c) Zombie brands such as Grundig, RCA, Blaupunkt, Bush, Akai etc even on products the real companies never made.

At least Amazon doesn't claim they are Retro, or Original Formula eink and no-one else used the Kindle brand earlier (I might be wrong, maybe someone made Kindle firelighters). The Smile Arrow from A to Z under their name is a little corny compared to the hidden arrow in the FedEx logo or the bear on the Matterhorn on a Toblerone packet.
