shhh! the baby is asleep, which means the parents are up hacking baby toys...we're following/recreating the DEFCON 26 Teddy Ruxpin reverse-engineering talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7SIL_JNSto by super-hacker team @zenofex and @Exploiteers https://twitter.com/Exploiteers to bring this now-no-longer-supported Teddy Ruxpin 2017 edition back to life and maybe create some custom content as well! 

our first step? parse out the SNXROM file to replace the eye bitmap frames in a 'story file' using python and Pillow. we just replaced em all with this adafruit logo but you could use any 128x128 RGB drawings. now that we know that works, next we'll be poking at the audio32 format to try and decode/encode custom audio. our poking and prodding is over at https://github.com/ladyada/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/tree/main/Teddy_Ruxpin
