If you’ve lost count of how many times you’d wished you could’ve
drummed along to a song with a set of remote controls in your hands
instead of drumsticks, here’s an adorably-odd toy called Mr Knocky that
does the actual drumming for you — without electronics, batteries or
incompatibilities with your OS of choice.

The plastic remotes use some kind of cable mechanism to pass along
the drumming motions of your hands to the $US32 Mr Knocky toy’s arms. He
includes a set of plastic drums to wail away on, but you can also use
an included adaptor to swap in drums or your own percussion instrument
of choice — like an inverted Pringles can. Mr Knocky seems like he could
also double as a fairly effective egg cracker, or a more entertaining
alternative to a those stuffy uniformed nutcrackers.
