I love them Kathy :-)
Sorry, I am afraid. Spooky eyes staring at the knife drawer. Plus they are multiplying! : ))
I worked for the footwear manufacturer back in the late 1990's that had the license to make the Furby Slippers. These things were all over our offices; I had two on my desk marked Boss 1 and Boss 2 that always spoke Furbyish, never taught them any words. -- The original Furbys were only made for 3 years (40 million units - WOW) - but they were relaunched in 2005
Thank you Mani, AmberRose, mustangtony, kerry, & scandinavian for the love.
AmberRose, I see your point, but I have mind trained. lol
mustangtony,
Your right I got mind when it first came out 1998. I just had to have one, I fell in love with it. (I'm a big kid)ha ha. Also, mind does speaks some English, it says: "I Love You" & "I Don't Like You". Can't make up its mind. ha ha. Plus a few other things here and there.
I never did see the slippers, I bet they're real cute. Why don't you post them, I would love to see it.
Morning Kathy, hope today finds you warm and cozy. And the rest of the day goes great!!
Hi kerry,
Thank you for the nice comment. Just as I thought things were back to normal (ha ha) it's not. It's been a little crazy here with my friend just getting out of the hospital, and at first he wasn't doing to good. Now Thank God, he is starting to feel better each day.
Have a Great Day!!!!
Sorry to hear the bad part, but sounds as if things might work out. Hope it does and he gets back to full recovery.
Thank you kerry, that was real sweet of you. I wish all the best for you and your ones too. Take Care
kerry I just notice above what I wrote. What I had meant to say is 'I wish all the best for you and your LOVE ones. Sometimes I type to fast and I don't pay attention to what I'm typing. lol
Kathy in today's newspaper flyer I see ferby's are back ! and hot for Christmas they can communicate with your mobile device ? But they showed photo's and are selling for 59.99
Hi Mani,
I just spotted your above message. Wow that's neat!!! I have to check that out. Thanks for information. But Wait, "Do you think I should put it on Ebay for $2,500. LOL. Believe it or not the doll is still on ebay for that amount. Poor thing, she didn't wake up yet! LOL Take Care!
I would keep this original for a while. The new ones are quite ugly.
