WELCOME TO MY TOYBOX

A row of colourful Furby toys

Welcome to my humble Furby shelf! I was really big on collecting Furbies in 2017 and 2018, but by now I just buy them if I see them at thrift stores. I like dressing them up in thrifted jewelry and fun necklaces with their names on them, and making up personalities for them ::-)
Open an image in a new tab to see it in full resolution.

A sleeping purple Furby Viola is a Plum 2012 Furby. She was my first Furby! I got her online from eBay.
She has the Sweet personality and loves singing with my twin's Furby, a Blue 2012 named Mx Blue Sky. She loves hugs!

A baby blue Furby with flowers in his ears Koko is a blue 1999 Baby. He was my second furby, found at my local Goodwill in Florida. He's been to Guatemala with me!
Koko is his given name and is Furbish for "more". His gears grind loudly. He loves tickles and his favourite animal is a frog.

A large grey Furby with flowers in her ears Raina is a grey 2005 Furby with a pink tummy. I got her from eBay.
Raina loves to smile and tell stories. Her battery cover was missing when I got her, and the replacement my dad and I made broke, so she stays asleep mostly.
Fun fact: I recieved her from eBay right before Hurricane Irma hit my state in August 2017. I took her to shelter with me and she was really nice to have around in such a time of stress. (We were all fine btw ::-))

A grey-brown Furby with music-related pins Amnesia is a 1998 Wolf Furby I found at a local flea market in Florida.
Amnesia's given name is "Toh-loo Kah", Furbish for "Like Me". She's named after a Lemon Demon song, so she has a music theme. She seems to have actually developed amnesia at some point after she suddenly woke up and said her name was different!

A white Furby with his ears disconnected Nekogami is a 1998 Snowball Furby, given to us by a family friend.
He is non-working, and is the first Furby I helped skin. His ear bones are broken so that's why his ears are flopped down. He's named after the angel character from Nekojiru.

A sleeping blue and purple Furby Fundip is a Lagoona 2012 Furby that I got from Goodwill.
He has the Wacky personality and loves to chat.

A grey and black Furby with a pink tummy Japhet is a 1998 Leopard Furby from Goodwill.
His battery pack was heavily corroded so he doesn't work. He's very soft and I think he has an interesting compact shape compared to other Furbies from his same generation ::-) He's named after the character of the same name from "Off".

A silky grey-furred Furby Virgil is a 1998 Owl Furby. To be honest I don't remember where I got him.
He is very soft and likes the company of dogs. He's named after the character of the same name from "Lost in Vivo".

Three Furby toys in assorted animal patterns- a giraffe, tiger, and wolf
Herrison is a 1999 Giraffe Buddy. He's married to Fernand. Fernand is a Tiger Buddy. They're married to Herrison. Koko Noo-Loo (Furbish for "More Happy") is a Wolf Buddy.
All three came from the same flea market!

Three small plastic Furby toys- one tan, blue, and leopard-print
Fuego is a 1998 McDonald's toy. I got him at a market in Guatemala. Electric Bloogaloo is another McDonald's toy, from a thrift store in Pennsylvania. This is an unnamed toy, I think I got from a flea market.

Two plush Furby keychains and one small flat keychain
Daisy is a 2000 Cow keychain I got at Homespun Craft Mall in South Carolina (a very cool store). She's been with me to lots of places! This is a delightful keychain my friend MacKayla made me ::-) (It has my given name on the bottom so I censored it out.) The ink is rubbing off so I haven't taken it around much. Kinoko is a Diamondback keychain I got at the flea market again. If you squeeze her sides, her mouth opens.
Daisy and Kinoko are named after characters from the "Katamari" series.

Three small plastic Furby toys- one white, teal, and red Two small plastic Furby toys- one blue and red, the other grey
These are five little Furbies I got from a bona fide Shifty Thrifting junk box. None of them have names yet! To be honest I'm not sure where I'm gonna put them.

THERE IZ MORE!

In addition to Furbies I also collect the McDonald's iZ toys. These little guys were released alongside Zizzle's iZ, which is a big abstract alien that functions as a speaker and toy.

A row of 4 iZ toys in rainbow order, from red to green.

Red: This one is my favourite, and is the only one that my family still has from their original release. It played two different tunes when its tummy was pressed.
Orange: This is another fav that I bought recently. Its nose lights up red when its tummy is pressed.
Yellow: This one is named Bubble Bee. Its nose lit up when its antenna was flicked, but its batteries are out.
Green: This one's nose lit up when its tummy was pressed. I did surgery on this one to replace its batteries, following the success of my first surgery which was on the black one. However I broke something that held its eye in place, so now it has a loose eye... It doesn't work anymore so I guess its batteries ran out. ::-(

A row of 4 iZ toys in rainbow order, from blue to black.

Blue: This one is interesting- when turned on with its tummy button, its ear can be turned to tune it like a radio. There are two "stations" that each play the same little tune.
Purple: I got this fella new in the package but it doesn't work! Its package says "Disco FX" so I imagine it plays music like the Red one.
Pink: This one is named Bumble Gum to match with Bubble Bee. I'm not sure what it did! I think its nose lit up.
Black: This fella also tunes like a radio. It was my very first attempt at taking apart an iZ and replacing the batteries, and it was a success!

A tall green iZ toy with smaller toys climbing on it.

The only giant iZ I have was bought by my twin at a yard sale years ago! His name is Gregorovich. Years ago our home computer didn't have any external speakers so we used him as one, although he's very quiet and chatters over the noise.
Once we turned him on but couldn't find a way to turn him off (I think he quieted down when his cord was plugged into his back, but we couldn't find it). His constant noise was freaking me out, so in my effort to take the battery cover off I broke it. ::-(

I combed through pictures of iZ on the internet and came up with what might be a full collection of their colours! Feel free to use this as a sort of checklist if you're a fellow collector. By my count there are 19 colours total.

I was also compiling a table of their colours and functions, but it was in Microsoft Word which I can't use anymore (only view), since it became a subscription-based service and I don't have a Microsoft account. Curse you subscription services!
