Maywa Denki Otamatone Kirby/Ninja/Hatsune miku Japanese Electronic Musical Instrument Portable Music Synthesizer

Innovative, unique, and now a popular toy worldwide, the Otamatone has earned high praise from fans and the toy industry alike.

Otamatone is a cute, quirky, and fun to play electronic musical toy characterized by its eighth note-shaped body, adorable moving mouth, and silly, buzzing, amusingly off-key "voice."Developed by design firm Maywa Denki, it was first released in Japan in 2009 and has since become a favorite of music lovers all over the world.

The Otamatone creates electronic tones that you can control based on the position of your finger on the touch-sensitive fretboard. Use a switch on the back to choose an octave and slide your fingers up and down to play different notes. Open the Otamatone's mouth with a squeeze to change the sound from a hum to an “ahh” and create a “Wah Wah” effect.

Hatsune Miku is a voicebank for Japanese singing voice synthesizer software Vocaloid, whose voice has featured in over 100,000 songs released worldwide. She has performed sold-out 3D concerts all over the world in the form of a hologram modeled as a 16-year old girl. Touted as a virtual idol, Miku and her anthropomorphism have become a global sensation with a loyal and active fan community who have created countless animations and other media featuring her.
