It is rather fascinating.

Thanks for the babelfish link..thats pretty neat too.

Anyhow I just thought this kit is kinda neat...dont see something like
this everyday...only things close usually have a cassette player or cd
player jammed into them...and no tubes.... I bet it is all plastic
too....the base, the horn everything...

150.00 USD on ebay ~:....kinda steep..... if they were 30 bucks I'd
buy one just to get an up close look at it.

The tube "strainer" that accompanys the kit was kinda funny....I guess
thats something that got lost in translation.

These can be purchased directly from Gakken for about $100 with direct
express shipping from JA. It is all plastic.

Don't ye jest lurve those Japanese - English translations!

It says that five 0006P (9V) batteries are combined in series to
produce 45V in total.

Close enough? I never looked at the item.
