I'm not into collecting them and I didn't even have one growing up, but after quarantine ends, my friend and I have agreed to make a "long furby". I find them hilarious, they are just furby heads on long tubes of fabric. And you put a doll spine in them so they can hold poses! We are going to freak so many people out, lol.
I used to be really into Furby's when I was younger. I found them so interesting, especially the ones with interesting color patterns and stuff. Like the Kid cuisine special edition Furby or even just the Flamingo furby.I've never really wanted the old ones simply because their eyes freak me out, but I did have one of the 2012 reboot ones.

The eyes sometimes sure are something. What was your experience with your 2012 furby?

What was your experience with your 2012 furby?The specific model I had was this one: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/515Hv4-U-gL._AC_SX425_.jpgIt was okay. I do think I had a few quality issues due to the fact that the box on mine was smashed. I loved him, but the fact that there's no off button (as with any Furby to my knowledge) was a let down. Especially since I had to leave him alone a lot so he grew a snarky personality. It got to the point where I couldn't sleep at night because it wouldn't be quiet so I had to take out its batteries. If there was a way to turn them off, I had no idea and I might've just been a little dumb LOLThe experiences I did have before it had a jerk personality were pleasant. Petting it and everything like that was fun. But after I took the batteries out I soon forgot about it since it didn't really interest me anymore. I feel more that I like looking at Furby's and knowing how their internal mechanics work than actually having one and taking care of it. If I was younger and had more time when I got it I feel I would've enjoyed it more and gotten a better personality out of it.

Furby personalities can be reset and they dont really have an off button. I like furbies better without batteries as well. I like how you can customize them. I hope I can try that in the future. Maybe you coukd do the same with yours?

Maybe you coukd do the same with yours?Ohhh I did not know they can be reset. That's really good news in case I get any in the future and they have an attitude problem, lol.Yeah, I mostly prefer looking at them and the customized ones (the long furby's will never cease to both amaze me and be completely hilarious). The only problem with just looking at the 2012 ones on display is their eyes since they're LED. Once you shut them off they have creepy greyish eyes Looks like something out of a horror game, LOL.What's your opinion on the 2005 furbys? No one ever seems to talk about them and I wonder if it's for a good reason I personally don't really like their design. I think it's something about the face and leg bump thingies. They kind of just look sad all the time and when Furby is sad, I'm sad Also the baby furbies from that line are nightmare fuel.
I still have my adult Furby and Furby baby but something happened to the electronics inside. The last time I tried to put batteries in the baby made a horrible noise and the adult Furby wouldn't work at all. Ponyfan
I saw a video where someone took an old broken electronic pipe organ and retrofit the Furby critters into it so they SING!https://youtu.be/GYLBjScgb7o?t=180
