Mickey D's commercial with 3 boxes!

So, the with the boombox media revolution in apparent full swing, McDonalds looks to be fully on board! This commercial had three different boomboxes. My wife saw it first and brought it to my attention. She even grabbed the TIVO remote and cued up the shots for me take the pics for posting here. How cool is she, eh?

Anyway, can anyone name all three of these?

1st Box - Lasonic, maybe?


2nd Box - Looks to me like a GE?


2nd Box again, a tad later in commercial


3rd Box - partial shot of a GE mini?

Yeah, the box in the 1st picture is definitely a 2nd edition Lasonic TRC-931. Nod Yes


I know nothing of those other 2 boxes tho. Confused

Still, it looks like a great commercial boombox-wise! Cool

Thanks Mono,

I'm happy they used an old school Lasonic vs. the new i931.

The i931 got its 15 mins of fame via the AT&T "techno twins" commercial.

I think the second one is a GE or maybe a Panasonic.

I'm pretty sure the last one is a GE mini. I will figure this out eventually...

The second one is a Sanyo M9935.

I F@#king hate McDonalds and their huge team of trend goons that look for things that are "cool" and use the **** out of them to pedal their sh!t burgers.
Like they're trying to imbed itself in some kind of culture.

And who the hell calls a peice of grissle on a bun with onion bits, mustard and ketchup a hamburger. Confused

Down with the creepy, transgender, red headed, clown! LOL Laugh Out Loud

Rant over.

Too funny! Gotta agree with you about the hamburger and the transgender clown.

But I sure could go for Big Mac right now!
