A Deep Dive Into The Furby Fandom

Love them or hate them, Furby - the nostalgic toy from the (late) 90s took over the US and the rest of the world by storm. People wanted the fluffy robot so badly that they fought each other in stores, scalped them online, and the government was concerned that Furby was a spy or at the very least, a national security risk.  Yet, many people were especially creeped out by Furby, so rumors about the fluffballs being evil, haunted, and possessed started to spread. Add lost media, early internet websites, and weird video games to the mix, and you get a perfect recipe for creepypasta. Or horror video games like Tattletail. Thus, people found creative and horrifying ways to destroy innocent furbots and even made their own fandom for Furby haters. With every iteration (And there are many!), the number of straight-up bizarre controversies and urban legends surrounding Furby only grew. Remember when we all thought Furby could actually learn words? Yeah. That was a pretty fun hoax, or was it? However, as Hasbro stopped Furby's production and their mainstream popularity veined, they got a second chance online. The Furby Tumblr Fandom (Furblr) is a dedicated and accepting community - with a whole lot of drama, scams, and questionable content. And also, creatively modified furballs that ranged from body horror creations like My Little Pony oddbodies to the Long Furby that changed meme culture forever. Even fake Furby knockoffs like Peepy or a Hamtaro lookalike robot are adored and have their own fandom on Tumblr. So, hug your nostalgic plushie (or Furby), get some popcorn, and let's jump into the wonderfully strange world of Furby and the weird tales of its undying fandom. ★ Timestamps 0:00 Intro 1:25 Furby Controversies 19:03 Tumblr Fandom 26:55 Long Furby & Oddbody 32:03 Furby Hacking 34:09 Japanese Fandom 36:53 Lost Media 41:54 Rare Furbies 48:34 Fake Furbies & Peepy 51:05 Furby Lore 56:00 Evil Furby 1:00:45 Furby Hate 1:04:48 Fandom Drama 1:21:04 Conclusion  ★ Music Animal Crossing OST (City Folk, New Leaf, New Horizons) Deltarune & Undertale OST Mario64 OST Zelda OST (Majora's Mask)  ★ Disclaimer This video is not meant to send any hate or harassment toward featured individuals, fandoms, companies, or any discussed content.
