If you are a Deadmau5 fan, then you will be totally stoked about these little guys! The Deadmau5 Mini iPod Thingie Speaker is compatible with just about any device. The speakers come with an audio cord, USB cord and a rechargeable battery.

At only three inches tall you can take your speakers where ever you go! They are also made out of a hard plastic, meaning the Deadmau5 speakers are quite durable too.

**Implications** - The power of celebrity endorsement is never to be underestimated in successfully marketing a new product. Consumers who are concerned with quality will turn to the experts they trust for advice. An item that uses a public figure popular among a specific subculture will appeal to alternative buyers and a target market of consumers.
