Hasbro To Bring Back Furby




DescriptionIn a move that is sure to excite the masses, Hasbro has announced that they will be debuting a new and improved Furby line this fall (finally!). If you don’t remember what that is, let me school you for a moment. The original Furby debuted in 1998 and instantly became a fad

national phenomenon. Stores had trouble keeping up with the demand for the furry stuffed animal that spoke its own language, and it was banned from the Pentagon because it was said that Furby could learn. The new Furby is said to be bigger than the original, and have an even greater vocabulary than the first.

Banned from the Pentagon?  Wow.  big surprise Oh, and can I teach it naughty words?

these things really do scare me. don’t bring one near me unless you want it to fly via louisville slugger.

theres no way these are coming back

btw typo “debuting a new and omproved ”

this reminded me of that movie called Gremlins i believe. Really scared me when i was small. lol dont see whats so great about it :/

Ditto—this thing also reminded me of Gremlins. And didn’t Rosie O’Donnell first introduce these things?  confused ANything she supports is just.. weird, for lack of NICER terms. Hehe

I have an original Furby still sealed in box.. lol

Any bidders?  cool smirk

Furby was banned from the NSA and CIA too.

With today’s government and “intellectual bodies” in place at the Pentagon, Fort Meade, and the Whore House, dust lint is probably banned.  So why isn’t George W. (“I’m an idiot and the worse president in the history of the U.S.A.”) Bush banned too???

I think it’s cool about Furby, though.  (Sorry about the rant…)  I wonder if this new Furby is the new version that sounds as good as human speech?  I saw that one demoed on QVC a few years ago and it was very exciting!

The new Furby isn’t bad, really. He is quite smart and can accually respond to you. But unlike the old Furbys, they don’t really talk to you. If you try to talk to it, it will start playing “Red light/Green light” or say “Me NO Hungry!”
I miss how the old Furbys would say cute random phrases like “Party! Boogie!” or “Me love you!”
The new Furbys also do not react to loud sound and they don’t care if they are flown through the air. The old Furbys may shout “Me scared! Big light down!” Or “Whee! Whoppee!” I miss that in the new Furbys :(

Actually the new Furbys do talk to you but i think Hasbro shouldnt have taken away the cute phrases and light sensor and names. I have 2 furbs they are cute but ive only gotten them to talk to each other once. There are new furby babies coming soon too they are VERY cute and talk better than the adult just like the original version!!!

Oh yeah and stop insulting the president you f**** b**** ur mom is dust lint. RETARD!!! JERK!!! A******!!! Go 2 hell angry
