This isn’t your average talking toy! This is a circuit bent “Winky Says” — rewired for sonic destruction and experimental fun. A childhood classic turned unpredictable glitch machine, now outfitted with features perfect for noise musicians, sample hunters, and sound artists.

Key Features:
-Pitch/Speed Control Knob – Stretch and warp Winky’s voice from low, demonic drawls to fast-forward squeals with custom 3d-printed knob
-Light Sensor Mod – Control playback with ambient light; wave your hand to bend the pitch in real time
-Glitch Button – Rapid-fire toggle that jumps between stable and chaotic playback, ideal for sudden cuts or stutters
-1/4" Line Out Jack – Send Winky’s madness straight to your mixer, interface, or pedalboard
-Battery Powered – Fully portable and ready for field recording or live sets

What It Sounds Like:
Imagine simple sentences turned pitch-shifted freakouts, and moments of surprisingly rhythmic weirdness. With the light sensor and speed control working together, you can “play” the toy like an instrument.
Each unit is bent by hand and tested for maximum creativity. With the original phrases still accessible and the ability to push the toy into total sonic meltdown, this is a perfect addition to any noise table or sample collection.
Add a little glitchy charm to your next track, performance, or jam session. Winky’s waiting.
