ActiMates

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ActiMates were a series of toys released by Microsoft.

Microsoft released seven characters including Arthur, his sister DW, the four Teletubbies and Barney. The company discontinued the dolls in 2000. The dolls could interact with the TV and the computer (the Teletubbies could not interact with the PC). They could also be played without the packs for the VCR and computer. [1] [2]
