I remember Furbies from when I was growing up. I had 1 and he was black and orange and my parents got him for me around my birthday. Which mean a Halloween colored one. Haha me being born in October makes for a lot of Halloween themed gifts for me.
I remember talking to it. At some point mine wouldn’t shut up at night time and wouldn’t go to sleep. So I had to take a battery out. My kids found I’m at my parents and where interested in what he does. I told them he talks to you but not always in English. He speaks a lot of Furbish still.
90’s toy from back in the day.

I have never heard of him but he is cute. What did your kids think of him?

It’s a US toy that never went across seas. The kids didn’t really play with it so I don’t know what they thought of him. They looked at it. I don’t think he had batteries in him to work.

Yes when toys where way more fun and don’t involve bodily functions.

I live in a third world country and furies were expensive toys so I never got one. But about 6 years ago I saw there was a furby that has an iOS app! It was very interesting but I didn't get it. My son wasn't into it and he was 9 years old at that time. He was more into lego.

My kids got some of these at a thrift shop. The Furbies would sit there and talk to each other and make weird noises at night. We kept telling them to shut up but they didn't. If we turned them off, they would turn themselves back on. It was something out of a nightmare. I don't remember what happened to any of them.

Yeah you have to take a battery out at night time so they’d be quite.

@ShyBear88 I think they were planning a worldwide takeover.
