Furby

~*~ Furby ~*~ I'm sure pretty much everyone will remember the hype that surrounded Furbies when they were launched in the run up to Christmas 1998. 1.8 million of the little creatures were sold in 1998. The furbies were marketed extremely well - everyone knew about them, kids across the country were desperate for one, and poor parents were frantic in their searches to get them in time to go in their children's Christmas stockings, some even going as far to queue outside Toys R Us and the like from midnight just to ensure they would get one in time! Furbies in the US originally retailed in stores for $35, but due to the extremely high demand some ...  Read the complete review

Furby For Kids! I was at a friends house and i noticed my friend had a Furby. I never knew what it did until they showed me. I was impressed! They speak and look cute. They come in a variety of colours and additions and the packaging is very user friendly and bright. They vary from 30-35 pounds. Getting the furby to work was very easy, you attach the batterys by opening the back panel and you put in the batterys and screw the back on. The furbys give you ultimate entertainment but they can become very annoying if you lead them on all day. One of the bad pointers are that they can get pretty boring after a few hours, its not a toy that you can play continousely ...  Read the complete review

I had a furby when i was around ten years old and absolutely loved it, but only for about a week as it began to annoy me i think that the furby will either provide hours of entertainment or bore you very quickly depending on what you make of it. The furby talks to you and you get a dictionary to help you understand the language converting from furbish to english the furby can also walk a little and do a twirl go to sleep and burp. they come in different colours and are battery operated so if it does annoy you too much you can always take the batteries out. Furbys sell on ebay so if you do buy one and no longer want it im sure someone else would pay to take it off ...  Read the complete review

Furbies are a bit like marmite, you will either love them or hate them. The good thing is, if they annoy you, you can take the batteries out or flog it easily enough on eBay! I first had a furby myself, when I was around eight years old. Fast forward 16 years and my two little girls just got one each for Christmas. Furby is an interactive toy, that when released was in high demand and quite advanced for its time. When you receive your Furby, it will speak completely in Furbish, its own special language. You have a furbish to English dictionary to help you understand what your furby is saying. With training and using special sequences, your furby ...  Read the complete review

furby is an interactive to that appears to know what your child os doing. he recogninses being turned upside down, being fed and being peted. you can teach him to talk and dance and is hours of fun for younger children bit be warned, he is one of those toys with am iritating sound. his voice is quite high pitched and he does repeat himspelf a lot. you can link your furby up with others so they can interact and talk together but i wouldnt recomend buying 2 to try this as the novelyt very easily wears off. this is a toy that can very easily be forgotten about and older children will get bored very easily. luckily furby does go to sleep when the lights go out thankfully. ...  Read the complete review
