Hey!  If you haven't seen the film "The Last Dragon"(80's film) then you have missed out on the classic boomboxes in the film!  I'm not 100% sure but I think there was a JVC-RC M70 that was stepped on and destroyed in the film in a movie theater cause they were playing music during a bruce lee film!  That was a real heartbreaker to see as they destroyed one just for the purpose of making a film!  The other I think was a Conion!

Lol, Sho'nuff had the best facial expressions!

so true ret...lol.....@ptaka69....there was two boxes in that film....the one in the theater that was smashed was an international.....and the second was the conion c100F...my favorite scenes ....the conion looked so minty new there...memories.....i actually owned both boxes in the eighties....

another classic 80s film that had boxes was breakin,,,,they had three....the conion c100f, the sharp 777...and the rising 20/20

yeah its messed up how they destroyed that box....i remember working in the summer to get that box....and seeing instantly destroyed in that film...... then i sold it....but later my moms got me my conion c100f as a gift...

Hope you will not hate me for this reply, but they were trolling hard that movie and got only what they deserved, in the only language that they could understand. As for the producers, they did not got the cookie from the master saying that some times 30 years later the box will have a vintage collector status. It was just something that you were able to go to the store and buy new that time. It-s like somebody smashed your ipod these days.

I'm not mad.  Your right that back in the 80's nobody would guess that those boxes would be collectable today.
