Otamatone x Sanrio Musical Instrument (Gudetama)

My 7 year old saved money for one of these. He was so excited to play it when it arrived. It needed AAA batteries but luckily we keep some in stock here at home. The toy is perfect size for his little fingers. Overall a fun instrument that can at times be annoying to others listening but it was nice to see my son enjoy such a funny little toy. The price to me seemed like a lot but I had just seen one at world market for the same price and didn’t really find it anywhere cheaper.

My grandson joshy loved it! I message him one day and I say “egg or Kirby” I say. He says “egg!” He says! (Haha so cute) so he got an egg Japan music toy and put on a little concert for us in the van. I hope he gets the help he needs.

I had wanted a lil gudetama version of this instrument for about 7 years or so and I finally got my hands on it! I love the sound and how you can adjust the pitch from high medium or low! I wish that it was more musician friendly and had scales and explained the tone better. The speaker is the wonkiest part about the instrument its very low quality in terms of sound and the fret board needs to be pressed down relatively hard, but its more of something to get used to than anything. I think the instrument has a lot of potential and requires a lot of practice to perfect to get a clear pitch and sound. However this lil guy is brilliant! It takes some patience and maybe it needs some updated features like a more sensitive fret board and better speakers, but otherwise I love my lil friend. Its fun super fun to annoy my cats and more fun to practice silly songs on

got this as a bday gift for a friend and it works great. it’s a fun conversation starter type gift. the sound quality is there. and i’ll admit, i discovered this based on the viral clip of these things nailing that evanescence song. hilarious. doesn’t disappoint

I had no idea an Otamatone could bring so much joy to a child. I purchased two, one "kirby" and the other Sanrio Gudetama. Both my 9yo grand daughter and 10 yo grand son were so excited. The sound is not so loud as to drive the parents crazy, and fun enough to keep them busy playing along with their favorite songs or making up their own silly songs. They both love it. a good purchase.arrived early. packaged well.

I didn’t really pay attention to the measurements and thought it’d be a little bigger but it’s so much fun and my whole family likes to mess around on it. The sound can definitely get annoying but it makes up for that in laughs.

Doesn’t hold a charge with brand new batteries

This thing is so cute! My son is obsessed with Gudetama and suddenly became interested in this instrument. What luck that we found one to combine both interests. It’s easy to figure out how to use and (thank God) the volume is adjustable. It’s a lot of fun and looks cute on a shelf.

Sobrevalorado.

This is a pretty cool set, makes all types of tones and tunes. I’m not musically inclined so I’m butchering the words to describe what it does. Sorry to the musicians out there! My kids who love music and anything Japanese love this.

So cute and fun to play with. Definitely worth the money 3 octaves and sounds good.

Preso per regalo. È uno strumento più complicato di quello che sembra ma ti permette di suonare tutto ciò che vuoi. Gudetama, poi, è troppo simpatico!

I had the absolute hardest time to get the battery compartment to open. I ended up having to remove three screws that hold the bottom together, then prying it open enough to yank out the battery cover. The problem is the screw for the cover has a nut attached and it’s defective. Anyway after way too much time and effort to take the thing out I had to force the whole thing back into its spot while simultaneously prying the bottomed piece open so the nut would fit. Surprisingly I didn’t break the thing. It works well enough but I’m dreading the day when my batteries die and I have go through the whole process again. I thought about returning it but then I’ll have to order it again and well, it’s a novelty item at the end of the day and it does work as described. Maybe if I get proficient enough I’ll upgrade to the bigger one, if that one has the same issue it will definitely be returned. I’m not sure if I recommend this or not.
