Subject: Mr Microphone
I'm trying to find a Mr. Microphone. Anybody have one they would like to sell? Or has anybody seen one somewhere? Tried Ebay.

OMG! I so wanted a Mr. Microphone when I was 6. I was laughing so hard at the person who quoted the commercial! Great Memory.TEXT

Hey Rhino, try placing a post in the Wanted board. You may get more response there. ;)
Subject: Re: Mr Microphone
Thanks for the advice. You wouldn't happen to know if there's a modern version of this product. Specifically a microphone that you can use to hear your voice on a radio. I need it for a prop in my new play.

Try Radio Shack or Circuit City for items like that. I'll bet they have a similar product. Good luck!
Subject: Re: Mr Microphone
There are a number of items nowadays that can do that, though I don't know what they are called. I'd try the aforementioned places or other radio/electronic stores. You might even try pawn shops.

I believe some karaoke machines have that capability. One of my friends is pretty big on karaoke. I'll ask for more details and let you know.
Radio shack is definitely one of the places to check out for that kind of thing. At the very least, they can point you in the right direction. ;)
Subject: Re: Mr Microphone
Thanks, I'd really appreciate that. I've looked all over.
Radio Shack was helpful but they just didn't have anything. They directed me to several places but they only had radio mics that McDonald's drive-thru people wear. All of the Karaoke mics had to be used with the whole machine. And most were not cordless.
Once again thanks for your help. I'll be sure and send you free tix to the show.

Have fun! :)

I see a lot of them in discount stores, in the toy section.
Subject: Re: Mr Microphone
Mr Microphone came out the same time as the "Superstar 3000" electronic guitar/keyboard, which if I'm not mistaken, had a microphone jack. :-/
Subject: Re: Mr Microphone
Really! What stores? Big corps or family owned? Would there be any in New York City?
