If you had the nerve? and was willing to risk it Paul, then it's clear that there are two parts to this, this top part with all these things on top, the clown & board etc, sadly there are no screws to safely remove it to see the inside which will host the musical box & the section leading from it or the key to this clown figure, if I were to try & remove my sisters I'm sure it would get messed up, marked, scratched, with paint loss :( so I wouldn't try, live with this flaw (it seems most (if not ALL) have it) the only other suggestion take it to an expert...OR...if in the UK..."The Repair Shop" experts seen on BBC, they're clever & would almost certainly improve the design of it's inner workings....real shame though.

I believe they were rather pricey when bought brand new in 2003, my sister bought one a little later, complete with box & I think it cost her about £65 P&P included but that was a good many years ago now, I sometimes check to see if any show up on E BAY & if they are listed as still FULLY WORKING? if so they'll fetch a premium I bet, curiously, there are very few to be found, which probably tells you that A) Owners won't sell them because like my sister SHE LOVES IT anyway OR B) Possible sellers may feel uneasy selling it not fully working, even if fully explained that they nearly ALL have faults, especially now some 20 years on. I wonder if Douglas's is still working? If so he's incredibly lucky & my guess is you might get £100+ for it fully working?
