NEW 2023 Furby prototype

hello furby friends, so perhaps the Biggest break in furby in almost that past 7 years which is WILD to think about, but a prototype for a new line of furbys leaked this morning on ebay at around 8am cst.

AGAIN this is wild, but is shows renwed interest from hasbro in the furby line. but first a general description,

So, bellow are the photos. 

The furby is an early run electroics prototype, these are can be very close to the final design, with the cosmetic proto being handed over for electronic prototyping.  the wires (as far as I can read) are as follows

Motor Ir encoder Microphone Left ear led Right ear led Back cap Front cap Sw & led Spear Mouth sw (switch) Neutral

So it apears they are going somewhat functionally similar to a 1998. this is also shown in the fact that they are using the og 1998 logo on the bottom. 

The board also reads 5-5-2022, so it is for sure recent. 

further into the cosmetics, it apears to be simialr to their fuzzalots brand. 

So it seems thats the direction that they are going in. which to me is... disapointing 

SO what adds to this story is the fact that Hasbro was alerted shortly after to the listing and were VERY interested. showing the first public interest directly in the furby brand in years. 

the ebay listing was the struck down less than an hour later

it was orginaly on auction for $50 then relisted, 

so overall. today has been a very interesting look into Hasbro playing around with a more modern furby... just observing the similarites to fuzzalots if this furby is released, it will retial for around 10-15$ which i think is a good price point, however I think that fans would prefer a more direct homage to 1998s, for those of you in the same boat as me, I think that the best we can hope for is hasbro having gone in a diffrenet direction, And with hasbro pushing their toy appearnce back, I suspect we will see an annoucment in mid september which would be just in time for the 25th aniversery. I will try my best to attend the toyfair in person or online and I will keep you guys updated.

special thanks to Furbccord for being a great place to bounce ideas around! and special thanks to FranistheMan and fubby on discord

and with that, peace and love furby community

Furby Prototypes - March 2023

Hello Furby Friends! So as Some of you may know, there has been another round of furby “Prototypes' ' on ebay! And as usual! I'll be doing a breakdown of the listings and furbs.

Foreward: These prototypes are kind of interesting! As they line up nearly exactly with the 2000 Tokyo Toy Show, and the seller has nib and production runs of all the other furbys shown there. (minus ofc the rockstar furby)

What makes this even more interesting is the fact that these are marked as “salesmen samples” or SMS, in the toy industry these are final designs that are produced to attempt to get pre-orders or intent orders from trade shows, or to present directly to retailers as options to carry in their stores.

Now as you may or may not know, there are 2 different kinds of special editions, their are store exclusives, these are typically non holiday releases and come in normal furby boxes and have either normal furby tags, or a special paper tag, (ex: racing furby, jester, hawaiian) and were only carried in a single store. The other kind are usually based around holidays, and come in custom boxes and are typically carried in multiple stores. I think this is important to note, as these prototypes were most likely not meant to be store exclusives. 

Ok! So with that let's get into the furbys:

Thanksgiving furby

First one we have is the thanksgiving furby, this was also debuted at the tokyo toy fair as well! And this is the 2nd confirmed prototype known to exist, but in my opinion there are at least 3. 

This one differs from the one previously known, manly in eye color BUT this one also has an external power source cord which were typically used to power the furby at toy fairs or when on display however the wires are cut, indicating that it was used for that originally but then used as a sms. EDIT: Interesting that it lacks reset button? but has power wires 

Snowman furby

This also debuted at the tokyo toy fair as well! And is the 2nd confirmed one to exist.

This one is much less refined, the scarf is hand painted and the hat is a production run santa hat. The base furby appears the same as a snowball, but has a mane instead of a tuft/tail, black feet and coal buttons and lacks electronics totally.

Uncle Sam (4th of july)

This also debuted at the tokyo toy fair as well! And is the 3rd confirmed one to exist. one having the power cord, as previously mentioned but this one lacks it, making me believe that it is a SMS solely. 

This one is less refined, the hat is hand painted and is missing an eyelash.

Afterword!

As of writing this post, these furbys have not been sold, I will update with more posts as/IF more is documented. Again, thank you for reading this far! it means the world. I sadly, will not be bidding on any of these as I already have a few prototypes and I am not in the position to get more at the momment! But Im happy to document.

I got myself a few more trading dolls this year. I purchased them last year, bu they just got here yesterday (thanks to Amzn slow-poke service, and the obvious Holiday season slowing everything down during these times). I am in-love with the NAGI Exchange Student Series Lanlan Lang boy I got! I really wanted one of the three boys, and I got one! I feel so lucky, I rarely get any of the ones I really want from trading toys, whenever there are few that I would rather not get. Those are usually the ones I end up getting! Lol! With this series, I really didn't want to get any of the girls (they are beautiful, but I rather own mostly boys, if the series has a mixed release). I wish they had made this one an all boy series, but they made the "plainer," everyday looking one the all boy series, instead of these one. Regardless, I am thinking of getting the other two boys from this series, because Lanlan is super cute, and I love the look of the other two as well!

I also got my first Penny Box Antu Tidal Secret Language Mermaid Series doll, she is stunning IRL, I got "Shimmer." I imagined these dolls would be mind-blowingly beautiful in person, more so because I have seen what the previous series are like in person (I own four centaurs and one OG PB Antu release). These mermaids are incredibly beautiful in person, I am so glad I was able to get one. I am not sure if I'll get more, I wish the one I got had a jellyfish on her hair (I love jellyfishes!), but otherwise she's so beautiful! I love her, but I already knew I would, regardless of which one I got from this set. They are all so pretty. (:

I also attempted to get a Paula Purrfect from the Nanana Surprise Minis, because I've had no luck finding her in stores. Unfortunately, I didn't get her. I wish I had known they would lower their cost, I would have gotten at least four at the time. I'm probably not meant to have her, but I'll keep trying! T__T;;
