About this model
A black portable boombox stereo with twin speakers, a central cassette deck, a carrying handle and an extended antenna. It has a classic eighties look. The boombox is about 2.5 ft wide, half a foot deep and 1.5 ft tall, inside one square.
Use it in a street scene, a warehouse party, a teenager's bedroom or a retro modern setting. It is set dressing, but blaring music is a great distraction or cover for noise. Players love finding one and turning it up at the worst possible moment. It sits nicely on a windowsill, a car bonnet or a bench.
Ideas for the table
- Someone switches on a boombox in the warehouse, and the music drowns out the guards' footsteps.
- A cassette in an abandoned boombox holds a recorded confession.
- Street dancers gather around a boombox, and the party's quarry hides among them.
