What is talkboy deluxe?

Talkboy Deluxe is a portable handheld cassette tape recorder and player that was first made popular in the 1992 holiday classic movie "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York". The toy was manufactured by Tiger Electronics and was designed to mimic the appearance of a real tape recorder.

The device offered various features such as a built-in microphone for recording, pitch control, slow motion, and an adjustable playback speed. It also had a headphone jack, allowing users to listen to their recordings in private. The Talkboy Deluxe ran on four AA batteries and included a tape counter, volume control, and a retractable antenna used for recording and playback.

After the success of "Home Alone 2," the Talkboy Deluxe became a popular holiday gift and was often sought after by young children. The device also appeared in other films and television shows such as "Seinfeld," "The Simpsons," and "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air."

Today, the Talkboy Deluxe has been replaced by more modern digital recording devices, but it remains a popular and nostalgic toy among many who grew up in the 90s.
