I spotted the Marvel Ani-Movie via a web search. It's basically a kids toy for doing animation of cutouts and models.

I've put the details and pictures about it on my blog

So, if I'm seeing this right, could this be used as a cheap way to shoot pencil tests? 

Obviously at only 6 FPS their preview wouldn't do you much good, but if you used it solely as a capture device it might work, and its a lot cheaper most capture set ups.

I've asked their marketting people to tell me the specification i.e. camera resolution, frames stored etc but no heard anything yet.

One of the issues with this device is demonstrated in their promo video, there are no registration pegs hence the backdrop can move between shots. It should be straight forward to add that kind of thing.

Cool. Definately let us know what/if they say.

Yeah, registration pegs would be a breeze, a little tape is all you need to hold down the peg bar, I don't think I've used a peg bar that wasn't just held in place with tape. Course nothin says you couldn't take it apart, and mount the guts into something else.

Looks about like it would shoot standard 11x14 paper as well, since your drawing area is 9x12 or less.
