Everyone loves Otamatone, the weird instrument that has a face! But what if that face was the same face as recognisable spherical icon, Kirby? It's an easy crossover, and it's been done — not once, not twice, but thrice!
There are three sizes of Kirbtamatone, the smallest of which (the Melody version) comes pre-programmed with songs, and the largest of which (the Deluxe version) is wayyyy bigger than the regular one — a full 44cm tall. That's so much Kirbtamatone!
Otamatone collector and lover therealsullyg, who makes Otamatone covers as his full-time job, has a lot of Otamatones, including Aggretsuko-themed ones, Kiss-themed ones (yeah, the band), and over 30 Kirby Otamatones. Have we said Otamatones enough? Otamatones.
Apparently, apparently, owning 30 of the same Kirby Otamatone was not the original plan. It was an "accident", according to therealsullyg. Suuuuuure.
In case you're wondering how on earth someone can make a living out of Otamatone covers, please take a look at this ludicrously detailed cover of "We Don't Talk About Bruno" from Disney's Encanto:
How many Kirby Otamatones do you have? Tell us in the commentamatones.

I love these things! There just so cute and make such good music with them! My day has been made!
More. MORE. WE NEED MORE.
I don't have enough otamatones, which I know is something I need to otama-atone for. But I wish I could be left otama-alone about it!
There is no such thing as too much Kirby. Okay, I probably shouldn't say that.
Just gotta rescue everyone of these little buddy's I find in stores.
I played the game "Spot the Kate Gray article by just reading the headline and subtext" and I won.
I watch Sully G very often on YT so to see him popup in an NLife article was quite surprising at first glance.
I wonder if we'll ever get an Otamatone Kirby Mouthful Mode form in Forgotten Land...
These things seem so annoying and yet I want the Kirby one lol. It also seems like a goof to mess with.
You can never have enough Otamatones! I have the Classic and Deluxe, and I play with them almost every day. Such cute and fun little instruments!
First design a simple mechanism to squeeze the Otamatone at random to produce sound with no human intervention. Then fill entire room with self-playing Kirby Otamatones. Finally, swim through the Kirbies to their melodic serenade. Only then are you even close to too many Kirby Otamatones.
Arrrgh..! I just gave a deluxe otamatone (black) to my youngest as a Xmas gift last year. I didn’t know they had KIRBY ones!
I think everybody knows you can’t have too many otamatones.
The burning question for us NL readers is…
does @DreamlandGem have a Kirbamotone??
Got Kirby & a blue one for my kids in 2020... They're quirky & fun instruments. Just ordered a Gudetama version 🤗There's also a Aggretsuko Rage version and it looks CRAZY! 😂
@KateGray none of these tiktok links work for me, dunno if it's just my phone?
No such thing
@Teksetter Sadly not, forgive me! But I am going to order one asap 😍
I still need to buy one of these.
It would appear Mr Too Many Otamatones has issued us a challenge:

LETS GOOOOOOO
I'm totally gonna be watching this. I missed out on the Sonic concert, but I'm such a big Kirby fan that I can't miss this. Can't wait to hear the amazing arrangements. Also hope those medals come to the US, they look super cool
