The apple glitches are always awesome if you score that chip. So many different chips in the apples. The green alphabet toys seemed like newer versions. The red keyboard could be fun to try. Great episode.👁️📺👁️
I was curious about that - seems as though I remembered it being different inside when I saw the one Tommy bent years back. I have quite a few of them and am thinking about opening some more of them.
I would give anything for that alphabet board. I had one when I was little and oh I loved it so much. That thing used to be something that I played with literally all the time and I mean all the time. I also had the alphabet apple at one point as well and it’s cool to see how you’ve been that thing as an older toy I could infer that it would be easier to bend as the circuitry wasn’t as modern as it is now, especially considering I think those are called micro circuitry, and that exists, but this seems like it would be way easier so I’m glad that you were at least able to bend something out of these three
Basically, my pal Scouts and Violet are the little soft puppies you see everywhere they have a button on each paw. The left top pole is for just interaction like silly sounds and things like that. The right top Paul is for music. The left bottom paw is for bedtime, music, and the Right bottom paw is to turn it off and on these things however I do not think would have very good effects for circuit bending as they are very modern and would not have what it needs for circuit bending plus they are soft and would be very hard to get into to circuit bin them. I do not know much about circuit bending but from what I have seen just being a toy collector and occasionally seeing the one or two circuit bending videos, those things do not look like they would be easy to circuit band now if you are going to try and get one of those you need to be very cognitive of which one you’re picking up as there are versions of it made by Fisher-Price named puppy and sis and those very indifference as well as most of the Fisher-Price ones have multiple other extra inputs such as a heart, tummy and ear But the my pal scout and violet do more than the Fisher-Price puppies do however, these would not be good to circuit bend if that’s what you were trying to do which from what I can gather yes
@JTMelton from brief research, I would tend to agree with your assessment. Looks like My Pal Scout was released in 2009. The sweet spot for circuit bending targets is probably before 2000 - the older that the toys are, the more the circuit architecture is accessible to us. Now, that is obviously not the case all the time and there are newer toys with circuit bending potential but I tend to look for toys that glitch or that already have great stock sounds that could be improved with say just a simple pitch bend and audio output. Being easy to take apart with room in the body for adding controls is a bonus, not to mention toys that I find time and time again at the thrift store. Scout meets some of that criteria but misses the mark on a quite a few of those points. After some research, it would appear I have seen this toy at the thrift periodically - it is new enough to have demo videos so I'll probably refer to those to sway me one way or the other but I imagine its stock sounds are cutesy and/or annoying and not all that usable with a lot of noises that sound automatically if you switch modes, not to mention a general lack of housing for controls. I'm also guessing its pitch would probably be controlled by a crystal circuit which is by far more involved to counterfeit, integrate, and control. I also have a storage area full of much more promising candidates. R1 appears to be the pitch circuit but for now I'm working my way through a cold acquired during holiday festivities and napping profusely.

Circuit bending a saxophone Santa GEMMY keep a GOOD. EYE your local good WILL
You should try to circuit, bend my pal scout
