Ice-lolly becomes a DJ machine

This summer in Japan is fierce heat as usual, and if we do not eat ice‐lolly we will melt due of this heat.

This "DJ machine" may make hot days fun. Toy maker Takara Tomy Arts collaborated with electronic musical instruments maker Korg and released a gadget to turn Ice-lolly into a DJ machine. Usage is easy. Just set Ice-lolly and lick this with tongue while touching the "electric conduction spot" behind the grip. Then, this energizes and various sounds are played. Built-in sounds are more than 20 types including simple sound effects and EBM / House musics produced by korg, and every time users lick Ice-lolly they are randomly played. However, Ice-lolly coated with chocolate etc. is not supported. The size is about W 90mm × H 110mm × D 50mm, work with two AAA alkaline dry batteries and the price is 1,490yen(in tax). There are the "age-age(hyped-up) version" and the "cool version", and the sounds recorded in each are different.
