I know you may not have much time to answer questions like this one-but ive gotten a couple megaphones of similar type (toy 'voice changing' w/pitch changers etc) but the ones I have do not have simiar boards to the ones with schematics here.
For example, they have SMD instead of 1/4watt resistors &amp; thru-hole stuff etc, and instead of legs I can see to solder to and so forth -the IC seems to be in a plastic cover or something-its a black plastic glob-circular in size.
I am REALLY poor-so the 5 bucks I spent is actually something to me-so I cant really afford to totally mess up.
My question is-before I try to do/follow your instructions-am I wasting my time &amp; messing up any use they may have in the future ? Are they still viable for bending if they are so dissimilar from the generalized PCBs youve taken photos of ?

thanks for any guidance you can provide-sincerely,

jim
