What's inside a furby? | Furby Dissection | We The Curious

The infamous 90's toy 'Furby' haunted the nightmares of children, and annoyed parents all over the world. In this video, Tom and Beth investigate the inner mechanics of a Furby and even bring one back from the dead!

We The Curious is opened a brand new exhibition in summer 2016 - The Tinkering Space! Aimed to inspire the inventor in us all, The Tinkering Space is for creators, inventors, dreamers and anyone who’ve ever wanted to have a go at making something. The Tinkering Space enables visitors to turn their ideas into something they can touch, design and modify, and even rebuild elements of the space itself.
Opened on 23 July, the permanent exhibition will include a ‘Baxter’ robot (the first in a UK science centre), two 3D printers, an air table for testing flying devices, Shadow Theatres, make-your-own ball runs, and more.
This video was presented by: Tom Rodgers and Beth Cotterell

    My sister once told me a story about her friend's furby being evil. When we had a furby in the room with us. I was so scared that I cried XD

    I'm pretty sure they have souls except they're "souls" aren't as resistant as ours. Being run with inexpensive parts from the nineties. They were easily affected by All maner or things from Radio frequency. Shaking sounds light and more. Given that they could essentially get DID or have multiple personalities and could sometimes function w/o batteries. Yeesh straight nightmare fuel

    this made me tear up, for future reference, please dont cut blindly, there is a zip tie around the base of the furby that you can cut into. the furby council will decide your fate

    You can take those furbys and circuit bend them so they can be plugged into a sinthasier. Get a ltc1799 precision oscillator to replace the crystal inside (witch makes it go in time) wire it up in a few different places and plug it into a sinth and play a some good music
