e Bay annual bead Santa festivities
Christmas time is here and that means it s time for MrT Santa to get merry with his big string of beads. Superclever reversing mechanism involving two rotating plates with a slight differential so they rotate slightly out of phase to allow a ramp to pop in and out to change reversing gears. Given that both plates have a common driving shaft I d guess one has a single gear tooth difference around its circumference to cause the slow rotational offset. Also a loud and weird musical element that is based on Jingle Bells a track that is in the public domain due to originating in 1857. I m sure some predatory music rights society will try and claim it though. The odd crashing sound effects over the top of the music almost suggest it has been borrowed from a cartoon version. The detail on Mr T santa is surprising. A very well modeled face with matching afrocurl beard, and glitzy attire reminiscent of asian culture. I was expecting a white Santabeard regardless
