Playful
Remake of Vintage Fisher Price Record Player
Good news: If you have fond memories of the Fisher Price record player you played with as a kid, they’ve re-issued it!
Slightly-less-good news: While it’s still super cute, instead of of it being an “actual” record player that plays special plastic records, it has an electronic music box inside. Boo.
But have no fear, if you all of a sudden want to get your hands on the real deal, good ‘ol eBay to the rescue. Try this search link for vintage fisher price record player.
