Greetings from Camp Crystal Lake

Hi everyone. New to the board and not sure where to post this, but I am trying to identify the boom box used in this scene from Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989). I am trying to buy one or at least something similar, it's ok if it is broken, it is for a photo project. Any help would be appreciated

 

Welcome to Stereo2go Hollie, i am sure some of the boombox guys will help you.

 

welcome to S2G
We have many boombox experts in the forum that can identify this boombox.
@deech @samovar @Reli @Radio Raheem @nickeccles @T-ster @Nickfish @docs @Northerner @mrp32Dave @NevOne @Mystic Traveller @Brutus442 @Cassette2go @Risingsunproject @retro and many more

 

Looks like a Sharp GF-700 but the grills for the speakers are round, so I have no idea.

 

Hello Hollie and welcome

I ve seen an email mentioning my nickname from Boodokhan so i checked what this was about !
I had to dig deep at my pictures to find it , was looking through 2014-2015 archive of mine and i found it
It is a NO-Name boombox . I have seen it from time to time to appear.


Here is a pic of it, this one in particular is a Sigma S-1006 which is missing the decal of its left tape door :



It is the exact model or an a.k.a that was used at Friday the 13th part VIII .

BTW just ignore the AKAI in front of it.
If you are patient and you can wait for a month maybe i will be able to get one for you.
As i said it appears occasionally at the markets i am frequenting but i never picked it up.

 

Now that Deech has given the answer I can confirm that I, of course, knew that too.










Total lie lol

 

Wow you are amazing and thanks for the super fast response! I would need it by August and like I said, it doesn't have to be in working order. You rock!

 

One more sighting from 2017.
Its a Sigma s-1006 also.
This one has the decal at the tape door.
Hopefully i will find one for you in time

 

Welcome to S2G, Hollie!

Square woofers on this No Name are "borrowed" from Sharp WF-939/940.

The original:

 

Thank you! I have been searching online here, but no luck so far.

 

Hollie please take a look at this topic maybe the last one suits your needs.

Thank you for sharing. It would certainly be a close match. I'm still hoping to find one like your other photos.

 

Any luck? I need this before August 16th. Really appreciate your help

 

Hollie I am contacting you today which is Friday the 13th
for the project you have about the movie of the same name.
I want you to know that the dogs are out searching without finding one until now.
Will have a look this weekend too , so fingers crossed to get one.
If i find it its yours for Free.

 

Thank you so much! I hope it is a lucky day! Happy Friday the 13th!
