Not much about it, just Spirographs! Nobody is too old to enjoy one. The standard model sold here for $2.99. I never knew they made a motor one!

If I was eph-ewe rich, I would buy a Spirograph for every child in the world. It's gotta be a good thing, to learn that mathematical patterns are cool and fun.

tricky without the dedicated, perfectly sized anchor holes

Oh that's too bad about the design change. I wonder if you could drill your own tiny anchor holes and restore the original method in its full effect.

I guess analog toys like this have a harder time competing for attention today than in the past.
