    On the Blade Runner 2049 Blue Ray, there's a short entitled Blade Runner 2048, set a year earlier. At 2m 20s in, there's a boombox and old stereo. Somebody here is going to recognise it for sure...

    I'm going with Sanyo since I just cleaned off my C4, but the top half of the middle is different.

    Nah. Look at the switches above the deck.
    I'm going with Sanyo or maybe GE, but no idea which one...

    My fellow forumer thinks that's a Goldstar TSR-900. :)

    I think that is the one. The orange button at the top left of the controls is quite distinctive.
    Buy one now before the price shoots up ?

    Yup, nailed it, nice one.
    Those non-U.K. brands are a gap in my boombox knowledge, that's for sure…

    What's the betting that eBay will now be clogged up with "as featured on Bladerunner 2048" Goldstars for £1k a peice?

    There's another boombox at the end of Ready Player One, during the closing scenes when Wade and Artemis were in the swivel chair. I'm going to have to get a clip.

    For those wondering, the last few weeks have been crazy, but I have finally got a picture of the circuit board of the Aiwa, ready to label and de-solder it. All I've got to do now, is print the thing on A3 !!!
