"A circuit board from a Milton Bradley "Mall Madness" board game (first edition) fit into the casing from a handheld electronic game from the late 70's called "Split Second". Uses 4xAA batteries. Along the side are two slide switches (power on/off and speaker mute), and 1/8" audio out. On the faceplate is a sound trigger pushbutton, two scrambler pushbuttons and a volume knob. A red LED is behind the clear red window and responds to sound levels.
As this video demonstrates, it can take a while to coax a satisfying sound from this gizmo. Not so much practical for live performance as for studio work: record it for a couple minutes into a DAW and chop it up to remove all those "HI!"'s. Or, flip a switch to turn on the internal speaker and annoy everyone within earshot when you're on the go.
