The Original Furby

Pros: Funny, makes us laugh,adorable and gives kisses!
Cons: sometimes annoying and needs timeouts!

When we bought our Furby we were a bit skeptical, so we opened up the package and read the instruction manual. We knew right away that this was going to be a very interesting interactive toy.

The instruction manual told us that we would have...

Pros: Cute, nice ears, interactive, lots of fun at first
Cons: Never shuts up, Gets under your skin, doesn't move or walk.

I bought Furby for my 4 year old Grandson.
Furby is a cute stuffed toy that is interactive and will talk whenever you wake him up. He runs on by 4 double A batteries.
His eyes move up and down and his ears move up and down whenever he speaks....

Pros: Cute
Cons: Eats batteries, seems to hear everything

Ok I bought into the Furby craze like we did years ago with Cabbage Patch. I have mixed feelings about Furbies.

First thing you see is a small fuzzy looking thing tied in a box. The Furbies come in so many pretty colors. I prefer the purple...

Pros: Cute, interactive
Cons: They can talk too much if you have more than one

Furby, you know the cute furry interactive toy, you either love them or hate them. I think they're kind of cute and I'm a sucker for cute toys!

Furby comes with his own little Furbish to English dictionary and instruction...

Pros: Cute, durable
Cons: batteries run out to fast. They say the same things over and over.

The Furby craze appears to be over with. The cute little furry guys who were once a whopping $29.99 can be found marked down at many stores to a much lower $19.99. Over a year ago the Furbys were all the rage. All the kids wanted one. And they...

Pros: cute at first
Cons: takes awhile to go to sleep

When the FURBY'S first came out I wanted one like everyone else. They can talk to you, other FURBY'S, do tricks and as you play with them longer begin to talk ENGLISH.

I got a black and white one, supposed to be a...

Pros: Cute Toy For Interaction
Cons: No On/Off Switch

My daughter wasn't into Furbys that much, until last year when the commercials were on every other minute and her friends "all had one."
I honestly didn't know "what" a Furby was, until she went into detail about what they did...

Pros: So cute, only $15, great playmate!
Cons: Takes 4 AA batteries, very noisy!

I knew I shouldn't have done it. I had been warned many times by concerned friends and relatives, but when I saw him I just couldn't resist. He looked all lonely up there, looking at me with those big, sad eyes and fluffy face. I had been told they are a...

Pros: They Are Kind Of Cute
Cons: Annoying After A While

I remember when these things first came out. Everyone thought that they were so cute.
You could not get your hands on one of them. They would sell out as fast as they got them into the store.

They started putting a limit on how many...

Pros: Cute at first
Cons: 3 words... annoying, annoying, fuzzy

I buckled. The kids begged me and begged me for a Furby and I said no. Then a customer brought one into my restaurant and it caught my attention, my curiosity and I buckled. Actually I bought it as a surprise, and then played with it for an hour ...

Pros: Kinda cute (if not creepy)
Cons: Has batteries for lunch and talks WAY too much

These things were all the rage in 1999 or 98 or so... either way, it was six years ago and my last Furby encounter was yesterday, at Goodwill. The Furby sold for about .75 and I could see why: flashbacks of the creepy Furby past. It's another junky ...

Pros: unique, smarter than certain people
Cons: Sometimes more annoying than my mother-in-law

Sometimes I like it, others I want to crush it, but overall, we tolerate it. No, I’m not talking about my mother-in-law, I’m talking about Tah-Lo-Lah, my daughter’s Furby

My five year old really wanted a Furby, Santa brought it,...

Pros: none for me
Cons: annoying moaning noises

This was suppose to be the hottest toy out when I bought it last year, so when I was at the toy store and an order came in, I felt so lucky that I was there. I figured my daughter would be thrilled to get one of these little critters to play with. I,...

Pros: Good gift for children.
Cons: You will probably get sick of them in time.

I purchased the Furby over the Summer of 99 for about 30 somewhat dollars when I went to the mall with two of my friends. You can't get Furby to work unless you have 4 x "AA" batteries. When finally got the little fur ball to work he was...

Pros: Cute, furry, looking creature
Cons: Will talk you ear off and scare you in the middle of the night...

Now, if you've read my member profile, then you probably know I am obsessed with collecting action figures. The walls of my living room look more like the action figure aisle of Toys R Us then anything else.

I've already described in...
