Guess who made her own puppets šŸ™ˆšŸ™ˆšŸ™ˆ

This is my first attempt at making puppets and honestly, Iā€™m pretty happy with it! I hope that the other puppet projects I have planned help me improve my puppet making skills going forward

Btw, the Dogā€™s name is Tubs. I inspired his look and the way he functions off of Rowlf and Cookie Monster. I thought itā€™d be cute to give him a little flea wife, so I did that too lol

Her name is Floreen

FURBY FANDOM! I need your help!

So, my brother bought an emoto-tronic furby on eBay (untested). It works, but with a couple of issues. One issue is that the eyes wonā€™t open, and when I gently open them, they donā€™t stay open. Another issue, is in the video you can hear very loud, high pitched, mechanical whirring. For that Iā€™ve been recommended to possibly oil or lubricate something on the inside, but I donā€™t know what Iā€™m doing. All I know is how to take the feet off. Any help for this Iā€™d be massively grateful for! Iā€™ll even doodle you a little furby drawing if youā€™d like (anything to get this guy fixed)!

I was deep into the furby hobby around 2020 (pandemic indulgence) but there are probably older furby people who experienced this firsthand.

Furby enjoyers had encountered the problem of k!nk accounts reblogging their content and interacting with furby media so the tag was created to differentiate between an actual sfw hobby account and one used for k!nk.

!! ATTENTION ALL FURB ENJOYERS !!

DISCLAIMER: As part of this project, I am not going to remake the entire movie. I am just putting together a pitch presentation, trailer, or advertisement.

For my college project, I get to reimagine a piece of media and attempt to make it better, and I've chosen to do Furby Island because I need a Furby Island remaster in my life.

I will be making redesigns of characters, likely rewriting them. Certain things in general will likely be redesigned, but I do plan to keep the plot rrrrelatively similar? I definitely hope to flesh it out a bit, though.

ā˜… !! As part of this project, I've been asked to research other people's ideas, so please, if you're interested, share anything that you've ever thought about being fun or silly, or better, as part of a remake of the 2005 Furby Island movie !! ā˜…

I've considered the idea of it being a show instead of a movie. Furby Island 2005 was going to get a series based on the movie's plot, but it ended up being scrapped. I'm sort of torn on it. I plan to have it changed to 2D puppet animation because we all know the tragedy that 2005's CGI was, and 2D is seen more in shows than films. Idk, feel free to put your opinion down in the poll below!

If you've taken the time to read this, thank you very much!!

I made this Furby quite a while ago, but it took so long to finally get nice lighting to take photos, but here he is!! :]

I think I like the name āš˜āš˜ Pond Scum āš˜āš˜ It goes with his colour scheme and I think he seems like a cryptic creature that could easily crawl out of a pond or swamp to go about his nightly routine. He kinda reminds me of the Swamp Ape or even a Kelpie for some reason. ĀÆ\_(惄)_/ĀÆ

Hi furblr, me and a couple of other people are on a discord server dedicated to trying to find the lost pudding and blue sky furby! If you like furbies, speak Japanese, and want to help we would really appreciate it! currently none of our members speak Japanese, which is a large roadblock for us. Contact me if youā€™re interested and I will send you the link :)

Also! I had a lot of asks about my furby patterns for the 2023 furb among others, so I decided to do a couple digital patterns on Ko-fi

This is my first time selling patterns, but Iā€™m kind of a perfectionist and try to get them nearly identical to factory ones so ye :p

These patterns are all the ones I personally use for my customs. Iā€™ve got some pretty unusual ones like 2005s and shelbies! I should have some more up soon, including 05 babyā€™s and some cloths! (Like tropical furby shirt and Wizard cloak)

ā€œGreetings, salutations, and otherwise hello, people of the Internet!ā€

\/\/\/

ā€œIā€™m sure many of you are wondering as to the origin of this quaint little blog- possibly puzzling over its particular presence!ā€

\/\/\/

ā€œI, Edward Nygma, known also as the Riddler, have decided to finally enter the world conjured by the digital era- and started an account on Tumblr!ā€

\/\/\/

ā€œOf course, Iā€™m sure many of you wonder how my valuable time can be wasted by such trivial affairs- of posts about cats and ā€˜one million Dracula attacksā€™ and whatnot-ā€

\/\/\/

ā€œBut itā€™s less about me seeing you- and far more about you seeing me! Iā€™m sure itā€™s a delight for many of you- from a mere glance, I could see the absolute adoration a select few have for my namesake.ā€

ā€œThus, without further ado-ā€

Bejewled furby resurfaces - June 2023

Hello everyone! I have been on a slight hiatus due to a myriad of personal reasons, I am back for a short post with some interesting news

a GENUINE Bejeweled furby has surfaced!Ā 

Foreword:Ā 

This bejeweled furby is in my opinion the only one to exist, as with much other furby information numbers of units produced is a shaky 25 year-old game of telephone. But having researched archived Tiger and FAO sites, it appears all promotional images are the same snowball furby (Notably with green eyes) and we havenā€™t really seen any different versions, For the information in this post I consulted several archived websites on archive.org along with the new listingĀ 

Background info:Ā 

The following description is transcribed from the original FAO Schwarz listing for the bejeweled furby.Ā 

ā€œCreated by designer Sidney Mobell. The world's most exciting tay is now the world's

most precious. bedecked with 156 gleaming and glittering genuine gemstones Lovable Furby comes adorned with a tiara necklace. and earrings crafted in platinum and 18k gold and containing 63 full cut diamonds (3.7 ctw) 44 rubies (4.5 ctw) blue sapphires (5 3 ctw) and emeralds (1.O ctw). AIl 3 pieces are removable So you can wear them too!

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the word class hasbro children's hospitalā€“ā€

The listing + info

So here is the description of the listing, the starting bid is 1,200.

(ill add it in later once the auction ends)

Now for those of you at home, you may be thinking... a $100,000 furby with an auction cap of $2,000. somthing must be fishy right?

but on paper... the bejweled furby isnt worth that much, and Ill explain.

For those of you who are not jewelers (I have only taken intro classes myself) this furby may appear to be absolutely studded in expensive gemsā€¦ but in reality the true value is being obscured by the cwt, or Carat Total Weight, this value is in reference to the TOTAL cumulative weight of the gemstones. So for example, the 63 diamonds CWT is 3.7, so each diamond is only 0.06 ct. so in reality the QUALITY of the dimaonds used is very low, for comparison you can purchase 25 loose diamonds of the same color, carat and clarity for around $50

So after a very novice rough calculation the total value of all the metals and gemstones here dont seem to total over $800. This is why I think the piece was designed to be a symbolic representation to the person who donated the $100,000 to the hospital, rather than a truly $100,000 furby which is why the capped value of the auction is $2,000

Conclusion + opinions

I still think this is an absolute amazing piece of furby history, one that I admittedly was not to familiar with, but was aware of in my deep dives into the furby archived sites, I think that the resurfacing of this piece is a ode to the furby community, and the fact that we are STILL actively learning about undiscovered information relating to Furbys a quarter of a century later! This toy line was only produced for just under 3 years but has provided a trove of information that's out there just waiting to be discovered!Ā 

And with that, ciao

CrayFurbs minimally invasive Furby restoration tutorial (pt 1)

Hello everyone! So I had a couple people ask me about my cleaning methods so I thought I would make a tutorial post! These are just things Iā€™ve learned and the Method I prefer when cleaning or restoring furbys for my personal collection (that being oneā€™s I like to keep mint or near perfect) or rarer furbys (like kid cuisinea, hi-cs) without causing damage to the zip tie or tags.

So in this tutorial Iā€™ll walk you through:

Disabling the zip tie WITHOUT cutting it

Removing and preserving paper tags

General cleaning + what I found works best

Step 1: specimen procurement.

front facing angle of a very stinky looking husky furby. heavy yellow discoloration but in good condition other than that
left facing angle of the same husky furby

Today I present you with a very stinky lad who has the honor (or misfortune) of being my demonstrate-ie

Heā€™s overall in good cosmetic condition, tags intact but his fur is extremely yellowed and he is generally icky.

Step 2. Removing the ziptie, without cutting it

So to start, locate the zip tie and shift the pelt until the main block part is exposed like so

furby zip tie channel with the zip tie partially exposed to show the end/locking mechanism

Then take a sharp tool and push it BETWEEN the locking mechanism and the end of the zip tie, it takes some practice but with a little pushā€¦.

a needle sculpting tool being inserted into the center of the locking mechanism to release the zip tie
the zip tie now being loosened or unlocked,

It pops free! You just preserved the zip tie without cutting it :) and you can re-use it on the furb!

You can then skin as usual. Really your preference on this.

Step 3: removing the ā€œhang tagā€

left side of the furby fur showing the purple paper hang tag

So now you should have a pelt with the tag on, now if you want to still wash the furb + save the tags hereā€™s how I do it!

close up of the paper tag and the plastic attachment for it

find the end of the hang tag, it should look like a little ā€œTā€ you can use a needle or similar tool to part the fur and find the the hole where it went through, gently angle the T piece and feed it through

exterior shot of the furby pelt with the plastic part of the tag fed through
interior shot of the plastic tag being fed through

Flip the furb inside out, and repeat previous step.

You should then have a plastic tag that hasnā€™t been cut, and with no damage to the paper tag.

Now. Take that beautifully skinned pelt and put it in some water to soakā€¦. While part 2 is being written.
