Note Press Pop also make the Bob Moog doll.

The small keyboard is Raymond Scott's Clavixox. The larger instrument is Raymond Scott's Electronium, video of it directly below (previously here).

  2. I'd (almost) die to see a decent video demonstrating the electronium, or even a small subset of it's sounds.

  3. Hi Stephen:

    The version of the Electronium that Mothersbaugh owns (which was originally made for Motown), is currently not operational. So a new demonstration is not possible. However, on the CD that I compiled for the toy set, I included a previously unreleased recording of Raymond Scott himself demonstrating his Electroniuim, so you might want to check that out.
