Otamatone Regular Black – Original Japanese Design Electronic Music Toy

Otamatone is a fun and unusual musical toy known for its eighth-note shaped body, cute movable mouth, and unique, slightly "squeaky" electronic sound. Developed by Japanese design studio Maywa Denki, Otamatone was first released in Japan in 2009 and has remained the country's best-selling electronic musical toy ever since.
Its innovative structure and worldwide popularity have earned it praise from both users and the toy industry; it was awarded the Grand Prize in the "High Target" category by the Japan Toy Association.

You don't need to be a professional musician to play Otamatone; anyone can easily learn.
You can play the desired note by sliding your finger up and down on the neck of the body. You can create a vibrato effect by gently shaking the body, and create the characteristic "wah-wah" tone by squeezing the cheeks and opening and closing the "mouth".
You can select octaves, turn the sound on and off, and control the volume with the switches located on the head.
