The animal easily learns new words. To do this, you just need to talk to him regularly. In this case, the words should be pronounced slowly and clearly. In a noisy place with a toy, speak loudly so that it can understand your speech.

However, you should know when to stop, because if Furby hears every day great amount words, then he himself will continue to chat incessantly. Despite this, you should not deprive your pet of attention, as it will simply get bored. At first, he will chat a little with himself, and then he will fall asleep altogether. Perhaps even snoring. You can wake the baby up by shaking it slightly.

Feeding

Like any pet, Furby needs food. He can tell you about his need on his own. In order to parse the words of the animal, use a special application. The actions for feeding in the application are quite simple. Most often, only 2 options are offered here: choose a ready-made dish for Furby or come up with a sandwich from the proposed ingredients. What your pet will eat is up to you. However, remember that Furby does not like monotonous food.

It should be noted that the applications were created for the Android and IOS platforms. The link to the applications is most often indicated on the packaging with the toy.

In general, food is what is necessary to maintain the life of the animal. Without it, he can get sick or become moody.

If you do not have the opportunity to download the application, then you can easily feed Furby with your finger. The fact is that in the mouth of the animal there is a button that looks like a tongue. When pressed, the animal will begin, as if to absorb food, smacking its lips at the same time. But such feeding can bother the refined Furby in culinary passions.

What will be your Furby's name?

Don't forget to give your pet an interesting name. This can be done using a special application on Android or IOS. Your pet will not only remember its name, but will always pronounce it when meeting new friends.

New Generation

Is your furry bored? Then try to take care of him as much as possible and then Furby will have virtual eggs. With the help of the application, your animal will be able to take care of them. You can collect even more eggs for Furby by playing with your friends. From each egg, new fidgets will hatch in the future, with which your pet will be able to play various games. For example, in football, it's more fun together. By growing a lot of virtual little ones, you can build an entire city and get a golden egg as a reward. What will happen next, you will find out only by acquiring a funny animal.


Let's take a look at the frequently asked questions that newbie hosts may have.

Much wider skills and abilities,

More variety of character options

Knows his name and remembers the names of the rest of the Furbys

6. Furby got dirty, how to clean it?

We carefully clean the fur with a cloth or soft brush so that any dirt is soaked.

It is forbidden to wash the toy in washing machine, immerse it in water, or clean it in any other way than with a damp cloth.

Can't use detergents or means that are designed to remove various stains from wool.

7. What to do when the toy does not respond to voice?

Let's try the following:

During a conversation with Furby, make sure that we look directly at him, speak clearly and slowly. The closer we are to Furby, the more easily he will be able to hear us.

Nevertheless, according to customer reviews, it is interesting not only for the children of the most different ages, but also becomes a charming friend for adults

19. Does the online store have any

Furby is the brainchild of a certain David Thompson, who sold the development to Tiger Electronics. And already this company sold all the rights to Furby to Hasbro, which released the second and third (which will be discussed) versions of the toy. The first version, by the way, came out already in 1998.

Left - Furby 2012, right - Furby 2005

Furby differs from ordinary toys the fact that it reacts to what you do with him (her?). Of course, there are more advanced gizmos, but they are much more expensive. But Furby in the US costs about $50.

In Russia, however, the situation is normal - on the "gray" market, prices start from 5 thousand and go into the stratosphere (before the New Year there were "birds" and 12 thousand rubles each), and official deliveries will be only in February (from the 23rd), the price will be 4,300 rubles. So you can start writing angry letters to Hasbro, they will supply toys to our market.

Packaging and equipment

The box is at least cool, looks unusual. Everything is done with high quality, there is embossing, and even on top there is an example of the “fur” of a toy. In short, it's nice to give and receive as a gift.

Inside - the toy itself and a quick guide to English language everything is clear and transparent. No batteries - in my opinion, this is some kind of strange economy. It is recommended to use Duracell batteries, more on that later.


Design

Furby 2012 looks interesting, the toy is made in six colors, four more will appear soon.

Variety of colors Furby 2012

Personally, I like the white toy the most, and maybe the black one. On the test there was a purple version, the live toy looks a bit different from the promotional photos - keep this in mind when choosing a color.

In any case, the main points are the same: below - a compartment for four AA batteries and a reset button, also each Furby has "paws" (special guides leave the battery compartment below), there are plastic ears, eyes (two LCD screens) and tail. Somewhere inside a microphone and a speaker are hidden, why all this is necessary - I will tell you further.






Operating experience

In short, you can learn about Furby from the videos I shot, I tried to “shove” as much information as possible into a minimum of timing. I shot them noticeably before writing the review, so some estimates may well differ.


Let's start with what Furby reacts to.

  1. Speech. It is not so important what you say - the main thing is that Furby "understands" that this is exactly the speech. Then the toy will randomly answer something in its own language, Furbish.
  2. Music. If Furby recognizes the music, a whole show will begin with dancing, blinking eyes, sometimes the toy will even want to sing along.
  3. Stroking on the back - there is a built-in sensor.
  4. Tickling (belly and sides) - sensors are also built in there.
  5. Flipping - there is an accelerometer, you can shake the toy, turn it over and so on.
  6. Pulling the tail - there is a special sensor that works with a noticeable click.
  7. Feeding - a button in the form of a tongue was placed in the Furby's beak, you can press it, and then the toy "eats".
  8. Other Furby - as I understand it, the point is the presence of an IR sensor and an IR emitter on the forehead of the toy, and a speaker with a microphone. If two Furbys "see" each other, they will begin to communicate, for example, like this:

In principle, this is all - a toy is practically unlearnable, with the exception of two points.

  • It is possible to change the "personality", there are six characters. To get one of them you need to feed Furby a lot, to get another you need to pat on the back for a long time, for the third you need to talk a lot, the fourth you need to play music for a long time, and so on. The process of changing character is funny, I didn’t have time to shoot it. In this video you can see both the characters and the process of changing them:
  • Over time, English words slip more and more often in Furby's "speech" (in the localized version there will probably be Russian words). That is, it seems that the toy “learns” the language if you talk to it.

What can I say exactly in terms of how interesting it is to play with Furby. Everything is extremely ambiguous, the first impression is great, but in a couple of days the same type of reactions gets boring. Then another couple of evenings will be spent looking at all the characters - and that, alas, is all. If we talk about a child, I think Furby will be enough for a maximum of a month.

At the same time, more than one set of batteries will have to be replaced this month - I used not the worst Panasonic, it lasted three days. The replacement procedure is not the most convenient, you need to unscrew two screws.

There is another moment, my toy periodically hung up, I had to unscrew two screws again in order to gain access to the reset button. I suppose it's also about the batteries - and with the same Duracell it could be better. But when buying and giving a child, you should think in advance what you will say if the toy starts to “die” every 2-3 days.

It is also worth noting the application for iOS / Android, it can do a little - feed the toy different ways and "translate" what she says. As I understand it, when pronouncing a phrase, there is a high-frequency marker in front of it, and it is from it that the program (and other Furby) understand what exactly was said. The feint is interesting, but it only works close to the toy and in the absence of background noise.





Conclusion

In general, the toy is interesting, and I liked it. However, they gave it to me for a test - but for 4-5 thousand rubles (not to mention larger amounts), I would not buy it. The 50 bucks that it costs in the US is a very reasonable price for the features that Furby provides. You can overpay, with delivery to Russia it turns out 2.5 thousand, this money (with a scratch) is also worth it.

However, what are the prospects for sales of official, localized Furby at a price of 4,300 rubles at the end of February - I find it difficult to say. Common sense dictates that there will be few buyers, and the wow factor will be the main sales driver. And the fact that the toy will get bored in a week or two - well, that's nothing, in the order of things.

I caught myself thinking that I rather like to show the functionality of Furby than to play with the toy myself. It may also cause additional sales. But I don’t know if Russian children will understand the “chip” of a strange bird. Still, 4,300 rubles is a lot of money.

Ilya Tarakanov ()

Greetings! Today I will talk about a new, wonderful Furby Connect, which has a lot of differences compared to previous versions! This is a pet for any age and at 5 and 10 and 20 and 30 and 40 and 50 ... years old! Because in every adult lives the same Small child))) Yes, and it's just very positive to observe the development of technology!

In the beginning there was the first version of Furby, or rather the first one we have popular in Russia. Then there were booms, little furblings, and boom analogues in general, only in different colors. There were even very good discounts on them, but that’s how we didn’t buy, we didn’t sunk into the soul.

And not long ago I saw released an updated version of Connect! Prices were from 12 to 9 thousand, I laughed and said - EXPENSIVE! price Child's world lowered the promotion to 5999r, I looked more about it and ... we wanted to buy it, most likely I wanted it more than the children))) But looking ahead, I’ll say that the children are very happy with the new Furby. We installed a new application, played there a little bit, and this made us even more interested in buying.

Photo report






















What's new?

  • The newest thing is that now Furby has got bluetooth! It can be easily connected to your phone or tablet, and it will also be able to receive new updates! His memory became at 16! times more.
  • His eyes are now colored, very beautiful and blue! Regardless of coat color. Which show 200 different animations!
  • He got a sleep mask, not a bad idea I tell you who has past versions we all know how easy it is to wake him up! Especially at night, you touch it a little and that’s it, no one else sleeps in the house))) Now he falls asleep if you don’t play with him for a long time or just put on this mask, he immediately starts falling asleep as before, stretching, grumbling in Russian and in his own ears claps. And now he wakes up harder than before.
  • The Russian language appeared, yes, it was in the boom series, but ours did not have the first one, it was very lacking! Moreover, now he can remember up to 1000! words!
  • Antenna, it serves to connect furby to devices, it blinks different colors when it is active, also if you touch it, you get some kind of music.
  • The ears are of a new design, they are moderately soft, safe for children, there is no risk of getting into their eyes. He moves them very actively, instead of apparently hands))) The best of all that have been.
  • His legs are pleasant, the same as the ears, made of soft silicone or plastic.
  • Now there are no plates at the bottom where the batteries are, before they helped him move, now the whole mechanism is inside, from this his movements have become smoother and more interesting.

I recommend this toy, I like the quality of hasbro, they are a big manufacturer of toys. I recommend Furby from the age of 6, as indicated in the instructions, although we played with the first one much earlier, it was very much held in high esteem. The only thing that can scare very young children up to 3 years old, decide for yourself whether to take risks or not, in any case, introduce them carefully. Older children can be taught to fart and burp, but on the other hand, there are you, adults, who explained that doing this is simply not beautiful, etc., etc. Any examples are needed and important, it's just a matter of how to teach them.

Indeed, this is a new level in Furby, his cute eyes do not allow even an adult to pass by. The fur has become even more plush!

The review will be updated, but for now we will get to know him more closely! Come in!

Addition

Furby doesn't change characters anymore, hooray! Now he is constantly cute! He doesn’t want to communicate with the previous Furbys, at least with the first one, or rather, everyone is cracking something of his own and that’s it))) The first Furby from the new one changed its mood to a musical one, apparently due to the fact that he heard the songs. But I didn’t see any kind of communication with meaning.

While there is a problem with connecting it via bluetooth, he doesn’t want to play with the application in any way - I’m waiting for a response from the developers, I’m looking for a solution myself. I'll post when I get results!

Oh yes, he is as loud as before, even tired of him)))

Furby Connect World program and search for a solution to connect furby with the program.

Update 12/20/16.

After full testing, I can say with confidence that we liked the toy! I wrote a review about the program above, there you can read more carefully and more, the link is above. Until I worked with the application, it was annoying and I would have taken it back, but it was corrected, even if it doesn’t work perfectly yet, it’s still enough to play. There were problems with the connection on android, on an apple there are rarely problems.

Eyes are very attractive, such a cutie! But too loud, this is a minus. In terms of volume, like previous versions, there is a lack of a button to make it quieter. I'm afraid to imagine what our neighbors hear and what they think when we play with him)))))

The fur is beautiful, soft, does not come out.

Furby no longer changes characters, which I'm glad ... the first one was always evil, no matter how softly they played, it's still nasty, unless you just touch it and sometimes just stroke it ... unfortunately between themselves furbu Connect and the first version - do not contact. Like two fools from different planets broadcast something of their own, the first one reacts to sounds, it has a sound module, it has become musical from connecta, I just heard enough))) But this is far from the interaction that I would like to see.

The connection has increased by 15%, the movement mechanism is hidden below, now it does not click on the table like the first one and does not try to climb onto the edge of the table and fall off.

The ears have become safer, there is no fear that the child may stumble on his ear. Somehow psychologically he is nicer with them and safer.

The antenna burns like New Year's lanterns with different and beautiful flowers, still makes sounds, good feature!

The mask works well, the main thing is to insert it to the end, immediately falls asleep and sleeps. Having removed the mask, it is not so easy to wake him up, most often you need to turn the Furby over.

I advise you to buy a charger and 4 batteries of any at least 2500 capacity. We have Duracell. Before updating the application, the charge ended faster, now it lasts longer. For 3-4 hours for sure, if not at all, it's annoying to play with him. We have enough of this for a few days, so I personally do not see any problems with food.

Cute, kids love it. Especially when he asks for an application, and this is every time, I join the children and play together almost every day, it’s even entertaining myself)))

This is a toy that you want to buy, of course, but you can do without it. If there is an opportunity to buy and the child is interested, I advise!
