Customised Furbys

Modified appearance furbys
Some owners repaint the face plates, add large tails, add new eye chips, add shaggy fir, Kawaii styled it, reshape the body or shave the body. It is easy to remove the Tiger Electronics\Hasbro skin, once the base plate's zip tie is cut, and replace it.

Some are also made goth, vampire or are made to have agonized looks in their faces.

Home made plush\stuffed toys
They are like the offical plush Furby friends. They are made like normal stuffed toys from the pelts, eyes, eyelids, faceplate and beak of actual Furbies. It is easy to remove the Tiger Electronics\Hasbro skin, once the base plate's zip tie is cut, and stuff it with padding. Sadly, some have no qualms about destroying a working Furby to do it.

The adding of regular stuffed\plush toy eyes, noses and mouths makes for a new stuffed toy.

Robots
The black electro-mechanical part under the skin (the 'plastic penguin' in 1998, 1999, 2002 and 2005 types) can be repaired and added to to look like a robot. Steampunk, Dieselpunk, Clockworkpunk, Cyberpunk, Sci-fy and regular issue realistic real world robots are made this way by some.

Long Furbies


The Tiger Electronics\Hasbro body is gutted and partly replaced by a long, flexible, stuffed, worm-like, plushy body. It is a cult thing that if flaunted on line and carried openly by some in public. Sadly, they have no qualms about destroying a working Furby to do it. Some sociologists have suggested it may have a phallic over tone to it.

Fat Furbies
The Tiger Electronics\Hasbro body is replaced by a big,flexible, stuffed, pillow-like, plushy body.

Other modded ones
Some people part stuff them in a regular stuffed\plush toy like in the necks of teddy bears and My Little Ponies.

Others were used in a electric organ, in a electric hurdy gurdy, as a lamp-stand and as a marijuana smoking bong.
