found some info on the company as well, it says they make novelties and have 1 employee:
Take One

999 S Washington St
North Attleboro, MA 02760

Phone: (508) 699-6213

I think that's the wrong company. The Take One you want, who also made my kicking legs prop that I bought from Big Lots last year, is located in AZ.

try to do a search for mimic machine by take one.. you will find NOTHING.. LOL I have something that never existed! WOO HOOO

Well I ordered 4 of the frogs so Ill open'em up and see what I can do and if they are gonna work like I think they will, Ill let ya guys know to get some...
Thanks for the find!!!

Did you get yours yet? I just ordered 5 of them.

Well, I got 4 of the frogs.
I havent opend one up yet, but it seems to have all the things I need for my props. Quality isnt that great, but then again I havent pluged them into the computer yet so not sure on that yet...

I received my frogs today from the link a few posts above. They work ok. The trick is when you push and hold the left button (while the frog is facing you) you must begin speaking (or playing your audio file) immediately or you will get a loud static since it begins recording when you push it. There is also sometimes a click after the recording so you may have to play with it a bit. All in all it is definitely worth the $4.38 each (including shipping). I bought 5 for $21.90 which took about 2 weeks for them to arrive from HK. I will try and take one apart soon and post some pics.

Right on terror31. Yeah they will take a little tweeking but should work for what I need. Let me know what you come up with..
