I don't know if it's possible but does anyone know how to record the backpack toys carts? Also does anyone besides me own the backpack toys display?

The easiest way to record audio from that Teddy Ruxpin is to place your microphone near his speaker and record it acoustically, but you're going to get some unwanted background noise depending on what type of microphone you're using and how sensitive it is. If you want to acoustically record the audio from Teddy, and if you don't mind hearing the noise of the motor grinding away, set your equipment up in a quiet location where background noise such as people talking, vehicles driving by your house, pets, music, and other sources of sound won't be heard If you're comfortable with a screwdriver and a soldering iron, open Teddy up, disconnect the speaker wires and then you may need to splice some wires together if you're using a 3.5 mm audio plug, similar to what headphones use. I don't know what the inside of that Teddy Ruxpin looks like and I don't know if the wires are soldered to the circuit board or whether they plug into a socket on the board. If you're competent with audio recording equipment and you think it's necessary, then you might like to use an attenuation cable to prevent sound distortion if the audio output from Teddy Ruxpin is too loud. I don't know what the impedance or wattage of the internal speaker is, but I suspect the wattage is probably very low, I don't understand the measurement of impedance very well though.

Regardless if what device you're using to make the recording, be it a computer or a dedicated recording device, if your device has an audio input, use that, don't use the microphone input because you may end up with distorted audio. If the device you're using allows you to select whether you want to use the audio input as an audio/line input or a microphone input, set it to audio/line in, this is if you've connected Teddy Ruxpin to your recording device. If you have connected Teddy Ruxpin to your recording device, be aware that there's a very small possibility that there may be electronic interference in the audio from Teddy Ruxpin's electronic circuitry. You may potentially hear strange noises in the audio when Teddy's eyes and mouth move. Also be aware that the audio codec Teddy Ruxpin uses is very compressed and lossy, you may hear digital artefacts in the recording, such as swirling noises on sibilant sounds and other things like that. Good luck.
