What a great idea for a radio...
 

Is it a radio or is it that precious box of macaroni & cheese you lost in the cupboard years ago, not sure what they were thinking when they came out with this thing....

It's a promotional advertising item. Have seen radios that looked like soda cans, soda machines, Goodyear tires, gas pumps, etc.

It reminds me of that scene from the movie "Big" where Tom Hanks rips on the new toy line cuz he doesn't get it....

Yeah, they are a bit silly. Have seen cheap telephones done the same way.
Here's an old Pepsi radio btw...
