Does anyone have any furbies? I have two. A baby and a special adult. The adult's theme is Halloween. Did Caleb Chung invent furbies? I think he did.

I have two furbies and a friend was over helping me with some sewing and I had to move the two off my sewing table. I tried to be careful not to wake them up but they did anyhow. They were very talkative today.
Caleb Chung did invent them. They are pretty cute. They sure get people laughing.

The good thing about them is they don't cost to much, are cute and colorful,you can play games with them, and the interact with eachother.

The babies are Lily and Anne.

What are the new ones like? I have the originals.

PLEOGALINBC · « **Reply #6 on:** March 04, 2009, 03:14:49 PM »

You can see them on google if you type in new furby.They're kind of boring because you can only ask them stuff like "are you hungry" and "can I hear a joke" type questions.

My question is, if they can get speech recognition in a furby, why not a pleo?

Here are my two furbies having a friendly chat. One had a slight problem.

Furbies are so weird to me!! I r emember one christmas, we were real broke. We were kids. Mom came to us one day and said we could only choose one thing for xmas that year. My brother chose a Furby. And I of course chose a talking Pikachu (pokemon). I just found that Pikachu the other day, I turned him on for a minute and needless to say turned him right back off. The 'emoti-bots' of the 90s were NOTHING compared to that of todays. At any rate, I don't think I ever owned a Furby. I always had my brothers around the house though.

mweed i love them for the new bigger and cool look, but that function is very bad. Sometimes they don't "understand" what you're saying. I think it's more cool not using words for Pleo (or maybe, i hope just the "name" command for future implementations!)...

When InmemoryofRomeo posted this picture of a wombat the first thing I thought of was "The Mother of all Furbies." All it needs are big bulging eyes. I don't know anything about the tools of modern image manipulation. When I grew up the tools you used for image manipulation were a hammer and a chisel.

fancyfont · « **Reply #16 on:** March 22, 2009, 09:13:11 PM »

Your right 49er. I think by hammer and chisel was the only option.
What really looks like a furby is the pygmy tarsier that IMR posted. But I would still love to have a wombat. So cuddly looking.

Oh no!!! The wombats have migrated to the furbies thread!!!!! Gasp!

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #18 on:** March 24, 2009, 03:41:45 AM »

Welcome back IMR. Did you have a nice visit with your Nan and Pa? Did they meet Lilo?

mh7ah · « **Reply #20 on:** March 24, 2009, 04:09:36 PM »

I used to own a furby (grey stripey one) about 7 years ago...I'm not sure what happened to him as I have moved house about 10 times since then...the last I remember of him was me skinning him as I was going to give him a new look. Eeeek poor little guy.

mh7ah, you didn't

Bumblebee · « **Reply #22 on:** March 27, 2009, 10:52:09 PM »

Ican't beleive i didn't see this thread before!

I never had a furby, i didn;t actually know robot ones existed for a LONG time. Whenever i heard 'furby' i thought of the little plastic ones you find in happy meals. :

But lets NOT go into McDonalds right now....
NOT ON MY LIFE! $:-\$

BIG MAC, Vanilla shake, Yummy!!! My favorite meal!

Mmmm chicken nuggets...

If the chicken nuggets have only been made from 100% chicken in the last twelve months, what were they made from before?
