R2D2 Boombox Kicks Tunes, Won’t Fix X-Wings
By Jared Newman
What’s with Star Wars-themed boomboxes that appear on the Internet with very little accompanying information? Don’t these people realize they’ve got EBay gold on their hands? Like the AT-AT Walker boombox that came before, we know little about the R2-D2 ghetto blaster, except that it was designed by artist Bill McMullen for his “Hype, Hustle, Rip-Off” gallery opening. In other words, it may not be a real thing, but we’d love if it only played chiptunes, as BB Gadgets jokes. Boba Fett wireless speakers next, please. [Mishka Bloglin via BB Gadgets]
