MEIN SPRECHENDES ZAUBERKEYBOARD
Funny little machine with a very digital electronic piano sound and four sampled animals. There are additional cartridges for games and composing - one cartrige contains very smart preprogrammed arpeggio-styles for own compositions.

HANDYSOUND HS-200
Same machine as the YAMAHA HS-501 but without LCD display and the cool shooting game. A bit boring for my taste, but very hard to find boxed!

HANDYSOUND HS-501
The worlds only toy keyboard with a built in shooting game? Like with Space Invaders you have to shoot little notes. This is the strangest of 3 little games for learning more about notes. Special Thanks to Lars from Norway for additional Box!

CS01 SYNTHESIZER
Sure, this machine is an exception in my collection because it is not a real toy, but it is a real analog synthesizer to learn subtractive synthesis. The sound is incredibly great. No virtual analog synth can rebuild this strong and simple energy.

PORTASOUND TYU-40
Has only a pinao sound, but it can be pitched with a very professional looking wheel/bender. Even the rhythm section can be pitched up and down. Cool!

PORTASOUND VSS-30
Smallest keyboard of the VSS series. A very hot toy sampler with resample function - so you have millions of possibilities. In combination with the CS01 analog synth, you have a very unique YAMAHA sound-station, thousand times better than any modern synths.

COMPUTE-A-TUNE
Well designed Space-Age organ with good echo effects and a pseudo filter function. Very effective and good to handle. Has also a great colour. Really a cool machine.

MONI
Looks like a 60ies machine but is from the 80ies - because it is from the German Federal Republic - the "other" germany till 1989. Moni is also an average german name.

SHAUN CASSIDY ELECTRONIC ORGAN
This was made before the successful MATTEL Bee Gees Rhythm Machine. Unfortunately this is pure trash. Plastic and sound are so cheap, you cannot imagine. Anyway, I love this thing because of its great design and laughing Shaun Cassidy on the box. Also released as KAPTAIN KOOL ELECTRONIC ORGAN and A-ONE ELECTRON P.1 in Japan.

PINK LADY was a famous japanese Trash-Pop-Group and they released tons of merchandising. Fantastic box art. This could be a start of a new collection: Pink Lady Stuff. Thanks to Hiromichi.

EXCEL-O-TONE XLT-1
The worst CASIO VL-1 fake ever. These Hongkong Guys have stolen the design, the name and even parts of the box (rainbowcolors). Cheapest plastic and only one headaching sound. Best section: the little display with ultra-small LED's to show the notes. But why stereo loudspeakers? This sounds less than Mono!
