TOPIC | Who remembers the early 2000s?
[color=5b76eb]Ahh! Does anybody recall Funky Furby? I'm an avid collector of vintage Furbies, and unfortunately, I rarely see the 2005 additions getting any recognition. Instead of functioning like the earlier augmentations, they would instead respond to a selection of requests; the person interacting with the toy would proclaim "Hey Furby!" Followed up with a request - "Sing me a song" would trigger a song, a rendition of pre-existing rhymes or original songs, "Tell me a story" would lead the Furby to recite a story, "let's play a game" would bring about a game of red light green light, and so forth. [s]Y'know, the Furby generation that surpass the 1998/1999 Furbies in uncanny valley.[/s] Nevertheless, my first Furby was one of these, and they still retain a place in my heart.

[quote name="Flamestar03" date="2019-01-10 06:59:07" ] Does anyone remember those little hamster robot things? They came with tunnels and accessories, and they had little wheels on the bottoms to make them move. Most of them looked pretty normal I think, but I'm pretty sure there were some brighter ones, I had quite I few I think. I remember the tunnels and stuff being scattered across my bedroom floor, haha. Maybe it was these things? I think it was, but I don't have a very good memory of them.

And one broke and when you turned it on it wouldn't shut up. I threw it under our couch

I had one named Pumpkin Oh those stupid doll games I played with my sister that were looking back was really morid When I didn’t know of YouTube And my mother’s IPad was such a strange new thing With only one ‘game’, a National Geographic app about endangered animals I read facts about those animals all day long And my mother finally thinking I was old enough for a ‘big girl’ toy, an LPS cat! And then stealing an LPS dog from school And the zoo animal ball things And the animal ball thing PopatoPips has a picture of I had a gray, cat/tiger one I think I stole from a Best Buy, my memories is a bit fuzzy there I was a weird kid man And it was great [rule] [img]https://www.robotshop.com/community/uploads/v/a/vabry/imported/Cepia-Zhu-Zhu-Pets-robot-hamster.jpg[/img] I had the brown one with the swirl on it!
Oh my goodness this thread is a trip
All those stupid toys
All those stupid PBS kids shows
Silly bands coating my wrist
Those hamsters that squeaked and spun
And the baby ones that were all fuzzy!
I had one named Pumpkin
Oh those stupid doll games I played with my sister that were looking back was really morid
When I didn’t know of YouTube
And my mother’s IPad was such a strange new thing
With only one ‘game’, a National Geographic app about endangered animals
I read facts about those animals all day long
And my mother finally thinking I was old enough for a ‘big girl’ toy, an LPS cat!
And then stealing an LPS dog from school
And the zoo animal ball things
And the animal ball thing PopatoPips has a picture of
I had a gray, cat/tiger one I think I stole from a Best Buy, my memories is a bit fuzzy there

I was a weird kid man
And it was great

@PrehistoryMaker,
There were like two or three toys that I played with constantly, and that set and the little house one were in the top three. By far. Absolutely loved them~~
