Godzilla Would Love This Speaker’s Animated Tokyo Diorama

Bandai’s $US2000 limited edition speaker has a glowing, moving, living diorama of Tokyo’s Ginza district as seen in 1955. I don’t care how it sounds, it’s the coolest speaker I’ve seen all year.

It has numerous LED light sources, moving parts and sound effects, and along with awe, inspires some sort of Godzilla-like instinctual response to crush it’s little buildings and trains right down into its wooden pedestal. And smack down a giant moth. [Bandai via Akihabaranews]
