Recently a thread came up from Max called "Which boombox is most known in the world?".
HERE: http://www.boomboxery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=18579

I commented on that thread and then this happened....

While replying to GhettoBoom767's Birthday thread (Happy B-Day BTW)....
HERE: http://www.boomboxery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=18583

....I was searching Google in the picture section for "BOOMBOX / BIRTHDAY" and I stumbled across the picture below....

Obviously it is Gluecifer's famous Taira M90
HERE: http://www.boomboxery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=8227&hilit=M90

I asked Rick if he had seen this picture? He indicated this was news to him....

So, what I can surmise is someone GOOGLE'D "Boombox" and saw a picture of the Dreamblaster and made a birthday cake for someone for their 30th birthday ! ! ! :w00t:

RIGHT HERE & RIGHT NOW a radio has become an ICON :yes: It moves beyond Gluecifer's "Dreamblaster" to become someone elses VISION of a Dream-Blaster! And worthy of making a CAKE from his design!
I wonder if this cook knows this radio is a one off and not a production model? :hmmm: ....Either way a room full of people most likely ATE it :lol: :cake:

Very Interesting when you consider this M90 has been an Icon for all of it's life! Now it's a SUPER STAR! :yes:

Well, there's obviously going to be NO suing or Filing complaints since in all likelihood, the evidence is now long gone!

Congrats to the one and only "Mr. Sh*thouse" (Your "artist" alias... :lol: ) and his mighty M90 moving onto legend status. You are now far beyond whatever Ira thinks he is. :lol: :thumbsup:

Better patent the idea otherwise they will be selling those in Carvel. :cool:
That is way kool though. You must be even more proud of your creation now.

Oh man, I love this. It's especially funny how the design changes with each iteration -- It's like the game "Chinese Whispers". Check out the diagonal lines: on the first cake you can still tell they're supposed to be design stripes. But on the second cake they look like they're coming out of the speakers, like sound waves or something. And some of them appear to have fallen off the speakers and onto the plate! Where will they go next? :lol: :lol:
