I know these might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I got my Slick Rick model last week. Just couldn't turn it down for $59.99. 70% off!
Slick Rick Arrives
- Thread starter Transistorized
- Start date
Congrats, I paid the full price last year. 
Despite one can't let a USB stick constanly in as it sucks the battery empty, it's a lovely piece with cool look. I wish they would do other models but New Wave Toys seems to concentrate on toys now really.

Yes the Slick Version isn't my first choice but at %70 off how could you not. I'm still astonished at the batteries on these things, USB use aside. On Bluetooth these things last forever
The gold and black looks great
You could paint the woofer grills black and the tweeter trims gold and get rid of the logos and it would look. Awesome.
reminds me of the days with 3 m90's nice 
......i actually had 4 at one point but never photographed them together

Yes I noticed that as well. There was to be a line of BT Boomboxes released by NWT but they seemed to have fallen back to arcade cabinet games. I believe the instructions had silhouettes of their next models to go in production or something like thatCongrats, I paid the full price last year.
I asked them about half a year ago and they said they are still working on more BT boxes but "it's complicated"
Probably design and copyright issues, but they didn't mention any details on what exactly is complicated. I've kind of given up hope at the moment.
Now that they have their first model out of the way, they could use the same internal circuitry for the other shells. That would be a plus as far as production goes.
The Super Jumbo would be an easier box to duplicate as it only has lighted meters vs swinging VU meters. The other radios would be more awesome if they could make the meters work. LEDs should be the easy part in miniature. The C100 would still be very cool if only the LEDs worked. But VU meters would be icing on the cake.

I agree Transistorized, the C100 would be iconic for sure but given NWT's love for tiny LED functions (see their Mini Pinball rig) I can almost see a Discolite 990R or something with a little "glitz" if you will.
On a personal level a Sharp GF777 or even a Classic 3 piece like a PC-55 or a Fisher PH 490K with remote detachable speakers would be awesome...pipedreams I guess

Gotta say the little thing sounds better (BT) than I thought it would, the plug-in remote is great from my seating position. 
Was on sale for $59, would buy again.
