# Fiery Avian Boomboxes Blast Your Music Through these Wicked Angry Birds Speakers By Matt Ho | Published 2011-06-09 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angry-birds-speakers References: [geeky-gadgets](http://www.geeky-gadgets.com/gear-4-angry-birds-speakers-and-ipad-docks-get-official-07-06-2011/) & [gear4](http://www.gear4.com/) I'm actually really surprised at how long it took for these Angry Birds Speakers to come out, considering how the game is a huge staple in the world of [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deskpod) products. The new Angry Birds Speakers come from Gear 4, which is the same company that created Angry Bird-themed laptop cases and [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feng-shui-calendar-app) covers. Now it's adding to the family with a series of docks for the iPod and the [iPad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magical-core), featuring everyone's favorite fiery avians. So far, the unveil shows that the boomboxes are in the shape of three of the characters: the red and black bird and one of the pigs. Hopefully, the other characters will make their way out as well. The Angry Birds Speakers are expected to be released in August this year. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 96% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Character-themed Speakers:** The creation of speakers modeled after popular characters from movies, games and other productions has the potential to disrupt the speaker market and appeal to fans. - **Branded Tech Accessories:** Companies that produce popular products like games and movies can enter the tech accessory space with branded products, creating a new revenue stream. - **Consumer Electronics for Pop Culture Fans:** Expanding the range of tech products to include items targeted towards pop culture fans may appeal to a wide market and increase sales. ### Where This Applies - **Audio Equipment:** The development of character-themed speakers presents an opportunity for the audio equipment industry to tap into the pop culture consumer market and increase revenue. - **Tech Accessories:** Creating branded tech accessories allows other industries to break into the tech accessory market and diversify their product offerings. - **Entertainment Industry:** Expanding into the tech accessory space presents new revenue opportunities for companies in the entertainment industry as they can leverage their existing IP to create new products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bear-Themed Audio Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rinaro.md) - [Bird-Inspired Speaker Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birdinspired-speaker.md) - [Phone Charger-Infused Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-chargerinfused-speaker.md) - [Future-Proof Luxurious Portable Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beosound-a5-portable-speaker.md) - [Bear-shaped Bluetooth Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bearbrick-collectible-toy.md) - [Amp-Inspired Bluetooth Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-bluetooth-speaker.md) - [Ludicrously Loud Bluetooth Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loud-bluetooth-speaker.md) - [Bluetooth Karaoke Setups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inbase.md) - [Exclusive Dino-Themed Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jurassic-world-x-klipsch-speakers.md)
