furby: thing of evil?

so i finally picked up one of the newer furby toys ~

it's a furby boom peacock style from 2013 ~

i'd held out because i really like the old classic furby toys best ~

check out furby week here & christmas furby here ~

this guy takes aa batteries ~

well he seemed cute at first.. ~

but i quickly began to think i must've somehow traumatized him? ~

or perhaps he'd been abused? he screamed 'boba boba boba' which i remember means scared or worried ~

he screamed CHAAAANGE! several times in amongst rocking back & forth, making garbled sounds & growls & putting his ears back, & his eyes remained half open with weird images in them ~

then i came down to the quiet dark playroom yesterday to get something & from behind me i hear 'you're pushing this way too far' in a very sinister tone.. wtf? it creeped me out so much i asked mr dad to take his batteries out so he doesn't burn the house down while we sleep or something, & while so doing it made more screeches & said 'don't go crazy' & finally 'am i still here' as the batteries were coming out.. yeah, i think it's evil. do not give this toy to your children! i thought the jolly chimp was freaky, this guy is getting wrapped up & put away.. i googled it & it seems possessed furby toys are a thing: what happens when your furby turns evil & new furby absolute horror :O

you've been warned ~

oddball plush toys

i recently tweeted this album link on freud's 160th birthday ~

so here's the tiny plush freud finger puppet i keep on my psych shelf.. he's always psychoanalyzing the other plush toys ~

freud & these tiny green bean & eggplant plush toys are also magnets ~

so i suppose they belong on the fridge? ~

here's a meme inspired banana plush toy by ideal ~

i've posted domokun monsters before here & here ~

but not this nice big plush monster until now ~

& here's a little plush furby ~

furby fans should check out furby week ~

from tiger toys ~

this happy face flower has a wired stem so it can be attached wherever you want ~

here's an old jack in the box kids meal toy that seems to be a ripoff of mcd's beanie babies promos ~

animals with a twist ~

i happen to like ostriches anyway ~

kcee piggy along the same line ~

actually this little piggy was once attached to a springy cat toy.. our sabrina tore him off of there & i kept him ~

i found this lot of little finger puppets & fairies at a yardsale.. i particularly like the homemade ones here :) ~

these silly slammer toys are fun when you want to vent ~

just throw them around hard & they'll make miserable sounds of pain ~

they've taken some abuse ~

celery man! (or is he bok choy??) ~
