That One Thing People Are Doing On Twitter

Megalist of Unique Furby Names 2.0 - New Furby Fansite!

Bigger. Badder. Furby-er. Welcome to Unique Furby Names 2.0.

                                        (Link to 1.0 can found here)

Highlights: 60+ brand new categories, over 1,000 new names, website dedicated exclusively to names, requests being taken for new categories.

Six months ago, I posted a list of over 900 names specifically to help people in the Furby fandom name their new friends. It received over three hundred notes with all sorts of thanks. People messaged to tell me the names that they had chosen off of the list. I was called a god on multiple occasions. I even referenced it from time to time for myself - that’s where Party Favor got his name from.

And yet, I knew I had more names to contribute yet.

I’m back, and with a vengeance. The drill is the same as last time: below the cut are over nine hundred Furby names, organized by category. But this time, I have a more systematic approach to the lists. Instead of copy-pasting them into a single, slow-loading Tumblr text post, I have put them all on a new website called “The Furby Name Horde”. The original unique names post had 58 categories and over 900 names. This new one has 67 categories and over 1,000 new names. What are you waiting for?

What a silly little critter

so I'm moving apartments in a couple weeks and after I told the landlord we weren't gonna renew our lease I started getting a bunch of emails from the building's real estate agent because of course they can't wait 2 weeks to start trying to sell the place again and she wants to do showings of our place. which I would theoretically be fine with. except this is the view you get upon entering my apartment

and I can only imagine how many potential renters this would scare off

She just needs new eyechips and some accessories for that extra ✨ pizzazz ✨

How to carve eyelids!

I wanna preface this with I have no idea how to write tutorials so this isn't really a tutorial and more of a how i do it!!!

 But carving eyelids is pretty simple process! But actually cutting them can be a little tricky!

While carving eyelids can really enhance a custom, there are cons the carving the kids being they won’t be able to fully close them after and there may be risk of a slip and cutting too deep into them, if you do don’t fear, I’ve seen lots of people fix slips with air dry clay and then paint over them to hide the clay!

But onto the tutorial!

So I start off by taking off the furbies shell and removing the eye pins and pulling out the eyelids. You can find how to get them out in a lot of tutorials on how to remove the faces for long furbies but Here you will be screwing it back together so be careful not to lose screws!

Once they’re out I draw out the guide lines, Be it angry or sad or whatever you wish!

These ones are Brie’s so they were angry!

Then using some nail cutters like these

I cut from the start of each edge, making sure to not cut off or through the holes on the side that thread the eyelids on the pin!

Then after the entry cuts are made I go through them following the guide line with a scalpel. a dremel tool is also very good and probably better but sadly I don’t own one so be careful it’s very tough and can be a little dangerous so make sure to cut away from you!

After you’ve cut them they should look something like this!

then it’s just a matter of smoothing them out with sandpaper or a nailfile, making sure they’re even and putting them back together!

This was the finished result of this baby!

How to tell your Furby's datecode

1998s, 1999 Babies, Furby Friends, Shelbies:

Guess who's back with another guide? This time on how to figure out your Furby's birthday! This guide is applicable to all Furbies, Furb

2005s/2005 Babies: Look at the tag. There should be a stamp with the datecode on it. From 2005 Furbys onward, the datecode should be read with the year number first. (For example, this Furby who I pulled the image of from eBay was made on the 221st day of 2005.)

2012s/Booms:

Unscrew the battery compartment and look at the plastic panel under the tail. I used my Boom Seaspray for this.

Connects:

On the bottom right side of the Furby near the battery compartment there should be a list of numbers and codes stamped. The first set of numbers is the datecode. This image is of my Connect Kee-Dah, who is sadly no longer part of my Furby family.

2023s:

Unfortunately I wasn't able to take a picture of Jankus Puffball Nanaimo Bar IV's datecode, but 2023s should have their datecode in the battery compartment somewhere. Here's the datecode on the back of the box:
