So cute, Kirby lover’s must.

Beautiful instruments, I'm inspired by one youtuber, is hard but no impossible. I love this kirby otomatone

So, this Kirby Otamatone is exactly what it looks like: a plastic, musical blob that makes sounds only a preteen could love. My kid saw it on YouTube, and suddenly it was the gift they needed—because, of course, YouTube is the true source of all holiday wisdom. It’s overpriced for what it is, but hey, the look of sheer joy on their face when they figured out how to make it “sing” was worth it (mostly). If you’ve got a preteen who’s impossible to shop for, this is a safe bet—just be ready to hear weird noises on repeat for the next few months. Easy for them to use. Worth it for the happiness.

I bought this for my 12 year old (at his request) and he immediately figured it out and sound song tutorials on YouTube. My dogs aren’t fans of this but now my husband is hooked and bought himself one. Now we have concerts with the two of them every night. Overall, this is a cute device that is fun for all ages.

Honestly this thing is a game changer. I want the bigger version!It plays two octaves along the bar, and the Lo Mid Hi switch lets you go… well high and low along the octaves!As a musician, i love fooling around with this device while listening to my favorite songs, and doing my best to play whatever my ear is picking up.It’s genuinely so easy that a 4 year old can play! (True story)The kirby design is just a cherry on top.GET ONE!P.S. SWITCH THE POWER OFF AFTER YOU ARE DONE USING IT! I have had to change the batteries many many times because I left it on! The batteries last waaaaaay longer if you follow this one simple step!

Kirby Otamatone is cute and works great, and it arrived very quickly. Learning to play it now. It seems like it’s easy to play, but challenging to master. Should provide hours of fun!

Black line is scratchy, besides that working really good :)
