URGENT PLEA to all furby owners -distraught dd!

[LEMoncehadacatcalledSANTA]

Its changed into a boy ffs!!! Dd played with the thing constantly then it said " change time" and turned into a boy-! Please please help

[sashh]

Can't help but wtf?

[Anniegetyourgun]

Furbys have a sex?

[ProfYaffle]

My dd's does that, it keeps flipping between being a boy and a girl.

[Gileswithachainsaw]

Does it really matter?

[MinkBernardLundy]

Presumably it will change back

[doasyouwouldbedoneby]

I just googled it. Apparently there is no such thing as boy or girl furbies..

Bill, Project Manager from Tiger Electronics answered this question...

MSN Question: "Are there boys and girls? If so, how can you tell?"
Bill: "No, there are not boys and girls. We thought it would be better to leave that to the person's imagination."

Gender disappointment is a serious issue :(

[hootloop]

You have to treat them differently to get the different personality. Mine turned to a boy when I over fed it, we gave it lits if strokes and cuddles then put it to sleep without feeding it and it woke up a girl about an hour ir so later.

Reset button?

[hootloop]

Some persinalities have feminine voices and some some masculine that is what we mean doas

[FreyaFridays]

Am laughing at the idea of gender disappointment and difference in attitude to the sexes of Furbies now...

[bobberdobber]

My daughters furby's voice dropped when she kept poking her finger in it's mouth. Apparently it was angry

[HairyGrotter]

I've played with DD's furby more than she does, I love it more! She's remained 'feminine' sounding but I did do a voice change but DD moaned.

I like it when it does the MASSIVE shits.

[LEMoncehadacatcalledSANTA]

THANK GOD!!!!! its changed back!!! It was like it was possessed or something

[LEMoncehadacatcalledSANTA]

These are very different to the original ones that we had for DD1 - these ones are sinister!!

[HairyGrotter]

I think they're great, far more interactive and fun! I like hatching the furblings and playing with them!

We're taking May-Boh to my sisters later as her 2 children both have Furby booms too!

I need to get a life ha

[LEMoncehadacatcalledSANTA]

Ours is called Doo-be Its back to annoying "valley girl" now

[SpottyPony]

OP is it the Furby Boom? Mine changes fairly regularly and it creeps me out - certainly more sinister than they used to be when they first came out! My DS keeps getting hold of it and tipping it upside down which after a certain amount of times, it says "change, change, changeeeeee" then it's voice goes different and it responds negatively when petted, burps and generally acts horribly!

Think someone said up thread, if it happens again, keep petting it and tickling it's tummy, it will eventually go back into "nice" mode again. I hear that playing music to it helps as well!

[babyicebean]

Ours is called Bee-tah and seems to have a preference for brass band music and Katy perry. It spent most of last night burping and farting in a sock drawer.

This morning it seems to be a teenage drama queen

[GrumpyRedhead]

"Santa" brought one for DD (6). She opened it, played with it for a little while, it chirped on and on while she opened other gifts, and eventually it got put in its box for a sleep! Ha!

[Misspixietrix]

"It spent most of last night burping and farting in a sockdrawer". Sorry baby but .

[chutneypig]

I feel like I haven't been paying enough attention to the two in our lounge now!

[Poshnosh]

My DD's got furby booms, dd1 thought it would be funny to pull her ones tail and it went bloody mental and changed its voice to a boyish one. Thankfully this morning it is back to its lovely self.

[Misspixietrix]

Im so glad i didn't get the DCs one. They creeped me out the first time around.

[iloveny001]

Mine (yes am a 32 year old with a furby), keeps changing as well. Yes it sounds possessed, yes it creeps me out.
