Seriously? I was searching every state through craigslist and never saw anything
I wasn't searching, I made an ad. I said I was looking for old Walkmans, they didn't have to work, etc., and that I'd pay a fair price.

Has anyone here tried the "Drinkman" which is a Walkman lookalike flask? Looks pretty close but says Drinkman instead of Walkman. The "button" on the top is the cap.

...Now I'm just working on the best belt clip. What's been working for everyone?
Wow! Beautiful! Way better condition than mine! What headphones are those? They look great too!
That's awesome! I really thought they were real MDR's at first! I still look for headphones. Hope I can find something this nice. I'm going to look around some flea markets and such. Also love how the tape adds to the look! Can't wait go get mine!Thanks! Picked it up for $300. The headphones are a vintage pair of Panasonic from the early 80's. I made a few modifications to make them look more like the Sony MDR-5a.
I have a WM-3 but decided not to modify it. I can't believe the price of these at the moment have gone through the roof. In June you could easily pick one up for the 60 - 75 range. WM-3's were around 20 - 50 depending on if they worked and condition. I think I will go the drinkman route. I believe it is a bit undersized but should work nice for costuming.
I picked up a Drinkman as well, and received it yesterday. I did however find this today while searching for reference material to paint said flask...

WooHoo, new Sony Drinkman!
I'd love to know the colors or technique behind how you painted that up.
