Revision as of 07:29, 27 December 2005 by Nakon (talk | contribs) (rv)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Actimates is a series of toys released by Microsoft. It released 7 characters including Arthur, his sister DW, the 4 Teletubbies and Barney. The dolls were discontinued in 2000. In 1997, Actimates Barney was the hot item for the holidays. The dolls could interact with the TV and the computer (the Teletubbies couldn't however interact with the PC). They could also be played without the packs for the VCR and computer.
See here and here to see what circuit bending artist univac has done with the Microsoft/Actimates Teletubby. Not for the faint of heart.
