Furby Review

101

f lobo

We no longer speak just English in our home, we now speak Furbish too! Yup we’re a multilingual family now. How cute is that?

One of the most popular toys this holiday season!

Our new friend Furby arrived with a bang. Niko thinks he’s the greatest thing since peanut butter and jelly. Furby actually has the ability to grow his vocabulary and take on a furbpersonality of his own. But be careful, Furby will develop a personality entirely upon how he is treated. Treat Furby with love and respect and you’ll have yourself a wonderful little friend. But treat Furby badly and Furby will develop a nasty personality.

I love that Niko can interact with Furby. He can feed him, tickle him, and even share his favorite music with Furby. Because Furby speaks both English and Furbish, a FREE downloadable App is available that will help you translate Furbish! This App is optional and works with iPod Touch, iPad, and iPhone with iOS 4.2 or later.

  • Furby responds to your voice and to music
  • Pet Furby’s head; tickle its tummy; or pull its tail and see what happens
  • Feed Furby with your finger
  • App is optional and works with iPad; iPod touch and iPhone with iOS 4.2 or later
  • Includes 1 Furby and instructions

I have recently came in contact with a FURBY! I have found them to be one of the most interesting (toys) I have ever encountered. They amaze me with what they are capable of doing.. Every child should own one of these.. 🙂

I love Furby’s! I actually just brought out my old Furby about a week ago and my daughters love it. I’m hoping to get a new
Furby soon if they would go down in price.

I really think my kids would love a Furby. It is fun when the toys interact with the kids. They actually play with them longer because they do not get bored.

I remember when the Furby’s first came out years ago, and my Dad stood in line at Walgreens on Black Friday to try to get 2 for my little sisters! He ended up only getting one and they had to share it, but they loved it!

My daughter had a Furby the first year they came out – only thing I ever remember camping out at the store to get. I’m now gathering things for my “Grandma’s Toy Box,” and I would love to have a Furby as part of the collection.

I remember the first furby when I was younger I had to have it. Well after getting one I couldn’t stop at just one, I ended up getting a total of 4, one being the special edition Gizmo furby! Now the new one’s are out and cannot wait to get one for my son since this all I have heard him talk about since he saw the tv commercials for them.

My Mom and Grandmother had one each a few years back. They were really funny. I’m thinking my 4 yr old son would really get a kick out of this. Who wouldn’t love a new furry friend?

My daughter had a furby years ago…She lost it for about months..that was until my mother was cleaning out her china closet…Here my daughter put it in there because it was the only dark spot in the house (to put Furby to sleep)…and forgot she put it there…LOL….

My daughter is 19 and wants one of these. She had one, years ago and lost it. A family member brought her’s to Thanksgiving and it danced the entire time the music was playing.

I love any Furby. They are cute and cuddly. Reminds me of the Gremlins. As a matter of fact my dog is named Gizmo.

These things look SO cool. I would LOVE to get a chance to play with one. I never did get to play with one when they came out the first time either. But, they look like they would be SO much fun!

It’s very cool that they are taking advantage of new technology, and that the Furby can now interact with an i-Pad or an i-Phone.

I loved furby when they first came out. I bought my kids furbies when they were first out. I remember ppl standing on the street selling them because they were so hot. Just last month I unpacked a box that had the furbies in there still in their boxes. I told my daughter to sell them on ebay but, she opened them and gave them to her little girl :0)

My son had a Furby many moons ago. It was wonderful until it died lol. Of course, the first generation could not be reset so we had a very cute but defunct Furby shelf-sitter 😉

Wow, furbies are expensive! I bought original ones years ago for my kids, and think I got them for about $10, probably a black Friday special. I dont know if I like the eyes on these new ones. I wonder if they are less grindy sounding when they move.

I remember when Furby’s were a big deal, my parents got each of the kids one and they were so cool! I never really figured out how to use it, but it was still super fun. Every now and then I pull it out and the dogs go crazy barking at it. 🙂

I really don’t know a lot about the Furby. Maybe because I have boys. I see people go crazy for them & they seem to be an interesting toy. This would be great for my niece. I think she would have a blast with this toy. I need to learn more about the Furby.

I learned about Furby’s when my Grandmother received two of them from my younger cousins one year for Christmas. My Grandma was like a little girl again! I know they have come along way since the first come out and would so love to see the newest versions.

I had one of the original Furbies when they first came out. I loved that thing and we had so much fun playing with him. I was so excited to see that they were coming back after I realized that mine no longer worked and my kids both wanted one. I love that they are more advanced now than they were back then.
