The Otamatone has different models, such as the Otamatone Melody, a smaller Otamatone that can be held on a keychain; or the Otamatone deluxe, a bigger Otamatone with more features. Some Otamatones have designs based of popular Japan based characters, like Kirby or Hello Kitty. The Otamatone Kirby Standard was released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Kirby. It is the second character edition of otamatone and has characteristics of a pink body and face that is printed on a silicon head with a moving mouth. The features, functions, and size are similar to the standard otamatone. It is good for any age since it is easy to play. Perfect for your small kids, teens, and even adults. When it comes to playing techniques, first, just press the stem switch to play the notes. Then let your fingers slide up and down to change the note. At the same time, with the other hand, move the mouth to change the sound. The Otamatone is a synthesizer whose body is shaped like an eighth note (quaver) (it also somewhat resembles a tadpole, or a ladle, otamajakushi ( お玉杓子 / おたまじゃくし) being Japanese for tadpole and ladle), with sound emerging from a "mouth" on the notehead. It requires two hands to play: while one hand holds and squeezes the "head", the other hand controls the pitch of the tune by placing the finger on a ribbon controller on the stem; a higher position on the stem creates a lower sound.
